Litecoin is a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency created by Charlie Lee. It was created based on the Bitcoin protocol but differs in terms of the hashing algorithm used. Litecoin uses the memory intensive Scrypt proof of work mining algorithm. Scrypt allows consumer-grade hardware such as GPU to mine those coins.  Why Litecoin? Litecoin is a cryptocurrency that has evolved from Bitcoin after its own popularity in the industry, this alternative, or ‘altcoin’ has emerged to allow investors to diversify their digital currency package, according to Investopedia. Litecoin is one of the most prominent altcoins and was created by former Google employee and Director of Engineering at Coinbase, Charlie Lee. Litecoin was the first to alter Bitcoin and the most significant difference is that it takes 2.5 minutes for Litecoin to generate a block, or transaction, in comparison to Bitcoin's 10 minutes.  ‘While this matters little to traders, miners who use hardware to run Bitcoin's network cannot switch over to Litecoin. This keeps bigger mining conglomerates away from Litecoin because they cannot easily optimize their profits by swapping to another coin, contributing to a more decentralized experience. Litecoin also has bigger blocks, and more coins in circulation, making it more affordable and swift when transacting,’ Investopedia explained.  As explained above, Litecoin can transact a lot faster than Bitcoin, but there are also a number of other characteristics that investors need to know before trading. Litecoin can handle higher volumes of transactions because of the capability of transacting faster and if Bitcoin attempted to transact on the scale of its altcoin, a code update would be needed. However, Litecoin’s blocks would be larger, but with more ‘orphaned blocks'. The faster block time of litecoin reduces the risk of double spending attacks - this is theoretical in the case of both networks having the same hashing power.  Litecoin Technical Details: The transaction confirmation time taken for Litecoin is about 2.5 minutes on average (as compared to Bitcoin's 10 minutes). The Litecoin network is scheduled to cap at 84 million currency units.   Litecoin has inspired many other popular alternative currencies (eg. Dogecoin) because of its Scrypt hashing algorithm in order to prevent ASIC miners from mining those coins. However it is said that by the end of this year, Scrypt ASIC will enter the mass market.

Litecoin is trending as the community speculates on potential breakouts and considers it an undervalued cryptocurrency.

Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac IPO Plans Face Democratic Pushback On Mortgage Rate Risks: Report

According to a report by Bloomberg, Senators Elizabeth Warren, Cory Booker, and Chuck Schumer sent a letter to Federal Housing Finance Agency Director William Pulte, asking him to prioritize housing affordability. 

Economist Peter Schiff on Thursday defended Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell over his stance on interest rates, days after Trump blamed the U.S. central bank for elevated mortgage rates.“The last time the Fed cut rates, mortgage rates rose. The same thing is likely to happen if the Fed cuts again,” Schiff wrote on X. “Maybe by not cutting, Powell is helping housing.”<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Schiff_JPG_ba73dc5e42.webp" alt="Schiff.JPG">Earlier this week, President Donald Trump launched a fresh attack on Powell, blaming the banker for hurting the housing industry “very badly.” He also called for a major rate cut next month.Powell is scheduled to speak on Friday at Jackson Hole, Wyoming, in the U.S. central bank’s annual symposium, where investors will be glued to his every word, which could give a hint toward the Fed’s interest rate pathway.While inflation has come down from pandemic-era levels, it remains above the central bank’s 2% mandate. The U.S. consumer price index (CPI) rose 2.7% annually in July, with core CPI rising 0.3% sequentially, the highest increase since January.Minutes from July’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting showed that while Federal Reserve officials remain worried about Trump’s tariffs driving up inflation, they stated that their outlook for the labor market has weakened.Retail sentiment on Stocktwits about <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SPY">SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust</a> (SPY) was in the ‘bullish’ territory at the time of writing, while traders were ‘bearish’ about the <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/QQQ">Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1</a>, which tracks the NASDAQ 100.According to Freddie Mac data, the 30-year mortgage rate stood at 6.58% on average last week, while the 15-year mortgage rate was 5.69%. According to the mortgage firm, rates have decreased over the summer, and purchase applications are now outpacing 2024. However, many homebuyers continue to wait on the sidelines for further rate declines.Luxury homebuilder Toll Brothers had revised its housing deliveries outlook lower and flagged affordability concerns. Fiber cement maker James Hardie also painted a dour outlook for housing demand in key growth areas such as Texas and Florida.The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by half a percentage point last September, and then delivered two quarter-point reductions in the following months. However, mortgage prices had risen to over 7% in the subsequent months.

‘Powell Is Helping Housing’ Says Peter Schiff As Economist Defends Fed Chair Against Trump’s Attacks

According to Freddie Mac, mortgage rates have decreased over the summer, and purchase applications are now outpacing 2024.

U.S. mortgage rates have fallen to their lowest levels in nearly eight months, according to Freddie Mac, with buyers looking to take advantage of the decline.Freddie Mac noted that the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) fell to 6.58% as of Thursday, down from 6.63% last week. A year ago, the 30-year FRM averaged 6.49%, according to the government-sponsored enterprise.“Purchase application activity is improving as borrowers take advantage of the decline in mortgage rates,” said Freddie Mac’s chief economist, Sam Khater.The firm said that based on its latest Primary Mortgage Market Survey, the 15-year FRM is now down to 5.71%, from 5.75% last week. A year ago at this time, the 15-year FRM averaged 5.66%.On Monday, data from Bank of America&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/2026-mortgage-rates-refinancing-rates-5-month-low-berkshire-prediction/chruz50Rdeb">showed</a> that the refinancing rate for a 30-year FRM is now down to 6.625% for a current loan balance of $200,000, hitting its lowest levels since March.In July, Warren Buffett-led Berkshire Hathaway Inc.’s (BRK-A) (BRK-B) HomeServices predicted a softening in the housing market. The firm noted that despite the expected softening, home prices are unlikely to fall dramatically. “Instead, they expect prices to continue rising—just at a slower pace. Slightly lower rates might encourage buyers to act, especially if more sellers list homes to beat any potential price correction. That could increase inventory and put downward pressure on prices,” it said in a note.Meanwhile, U.S. equities declined in Thursday’s midday session. At the time of writing, the&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SPY">SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF</a> (SPY), which tracks the S&amp;P 500 index, was down 0.25%, while the&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/QQQ">Invesco QQQ Trust</a> (QQQ) fell 0.23%.
