Litecoin Highlights Fair-Launch Edge for Bitcoin (BTC) and Litecoin (LTC): No VC Unlocks and Predictable Halvings Aid Trading Strategies

According to @litecoin, Bitcoin (BTC) and Litecoin (LTC) are long-running networks because fair launches foster wider distribution and resilient grassroots communities. Source: Litecoin on X, Dec 11, 2025. Both BTC (2009) and LTC (2011) use proof-of-work with no premine or ICO, meaning issuance comes from mining and follows transparent rules. Source: Bitcoin.org; Litecoin.org.
