Litecoin uses the same encryption techniques to transfer, create funds and confirm transactions. However, compared with Bitcoin, Litecoin has a larger supply that can be created and it has faster transaction rates.
Litecoin uses the scrypt hashing algorithm. which makes Litecoin transactions’ confirming more CPU-intensive on machines designed to mine Bitcoin.
