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 anticipates a potential breakout, fueled by discussions of flagging patterns and historical volume highs.  Enthusiasts are pointing to Litecoin's privacy features and the listing of companies holding LTC, while also drawing comparisons to Zcash's recent price movement. Bullish sentiment is further supported by the recent launch of Litecoin ETFs.

Yearn Finance is a suite of products in Decentralized Finance (DeFi) that provides lending aggregation, yield generation, and insurance on the Ethereum blockchain. The protocol is maintained by various independent developers and is governed by YFI holders.  It started out as a passion project by Andre Cronje to automate the process of switching capital between lending platforms in search of the best yield offered, as the lending yield is a floating rate rather than fixed rate. Funds are shifted between dYdX, AAVE, and Compound automatically as interest rates change between these protocols.   The service offered includes major USD tokens such as DAI, USDT, USDC, and TUSD. For example, if a user deposits DAI into yearn.finance, the user will receive yDAI token in return, which is a yield-bearing DAI token.   Later on, it collaborated with Curve Finance to release a yield-bearing USD tokens pool that includes four y-tokens: yDAI, yUSDT, yUSDC and yTUSD, it is named as yUSD.   Yearn Finance debuted the vault feature after its token launch, igniting a frenzy on automated yield farming and is considered the initiator of the category of yield farming aggregator. Basically, the vault will help users to claim yield farming rewards and sell it for the underlying assets.   Vaults benefit users by socializing gas costs, automating the yield generation and rebalancing process, and automatically shifting capital as opportunities arise. End users also do not need to have proficient knowledge of the underlying protocols involved or DeFi, thus the Vaults represent a passive-investing strategy. It is akin to a crypto hedge fund where the aim is to increase the amount of assets that users deposited.

yearn.finance

Yearn.finance ($YFI) is surging amid community excitement, with many highlighting its small max supply of 36,000 tokens and potential for significant growth in the DeFi space as interest rates potentially decrease. Some community members are drawing comparisons to its previous peak and suggesting it could reach new all-time highs during this bull run, viewing it as a scarce asset poised for substantial gains. The conversation also includes discussions about its relationship to Bitcoin and Ethereum, with some anticipating a rotation of funds into YFI.

Verge coin started its cryptocurrency journey in 2014, going by the name of DogecoinDark. The reason it was created was to create a truly private cryptocurrency. The founder of Verge felt that Bitcoin wasn’t anonymous, so he decided to build a new blockchain where transactions could not be traced. Verge uses multiple anonymity-centric networks such as TOR and I2P. The IP addresses of the users are fully obfuscated. The Core QT wallet has built-in TOR integration as well as SSL encryption which adds an extra level of security.  Verge is an open source project with an active team of developers from all over the world. The development team is always in close contact with the community. Verge is not a private company funded through an ICO or premining. Wraith Protocol is a technology upgrade package that enables our users to be able to send and receive payments privately across our blockchain by enabling stealth addressing services.   Additionally this update removes our QT wallet users off of clearnet and migrates everyone to SSL enabled Tor.  Verge focuses on security and maintaining user anonymity just like Monero; so that is its latent upside. Many investors are also applauding its unique technology. Having been improved and integrated with the Wraith Protocol technology, verge users are now able to effortlessly switch between private and public ledgers on the Verge blockchain.  Before this, private and public ledgers were mutually selected, meaning that they could not co-exist on a very similar blockchain. But investors are today free to use whatever ledger they want. A good example was when Wraith Protocol switched ON – one will not be able to view the transaction data, not even via the blockchain explorer. Additionally, Verge makes obscure the IP addresses in both instances. When coupled with Wraith Protocol Verge certainly becomes the only undetectable cryptocurrency.  Furthermore, transaction speed on Verge is light speed at 5 seconds only, using Simple Payment Verification technology. Verge also maintains a community feel since it’s not a private company. Community members are responsible for the direction of its technology and where the coin heads next. It currently offers a number of secure mobile wallets, including the Tor Android Wallet, which offers mobile anonymity, another big plus over Bitcoin.  Verges offers five different Proof-of-Work algorithms for mining. They include; Lyra2rev2, Scrypt, X17, blake2s and myr-groestl. Offering a choice of five different algorithms promotes inclusion, since a wider variety of users will now have an opportunity to not only mine but influence the network. Should one algorithm demand greater mining resources, users get an option of just switching to a different one.

Verge

Verge (XVG) is trending amid discussions about its potential, historical performance, and status as an ISO 20022 compliant cryptocurrency.

Zcash is a decentralized and open-source cryptocurrency that offers privacy and selective transparency of transactions. Zcash payments are published on a public blockchain, but the sender, recipient, and amount of a transaction remain private.  Zcash is based on peer-reviewed cryptographic research, and built by a security-specialized engineering team on an open source platform based on Bitcoin Core's battle-tested codebase. Our improvement over Bitcoin is the addition of privacy. Zcash uses advanced cryptographic techniques, namely zero-knowledge proofs, to guarantee the validity of transactions without revealing additional information about them.  How Zcash works  Zcash encrypts the contents of shielded transactions. Since the payment information is encrypted, the protocol uses a novel cryptographic method to verify their validity.  Zcash uses a zero-knowledge proof construction called a zk-SNARK, developed by our team of experienced cryptographers based on recent breakthroughs in cryptography. These constructions allow the network to maintain a secure ledger of balances without disclosing the parties or amounts involved. Instead of publicly demonstrating spend-authority and transaction values, the transaction metadata is encrypted and zk-SNARKs are used to prove that nobody is cheating or stealing.  Zcash also enables users to send public payments which work similarly to Bitcoin. With the support for both shielded and transparent addresses, users can choose to send Zcash privately or publicly. Zcash payments sent from a shielded address to a transparent address reveal the received balance, while payments from a transparent address to a shielded address protect the receiving value.   Check out CoinBureau for guide on What is ZCash.

Zcash

Zcash is trending as community members discuss its recent price surge and potential as a privacy-focused alternative to Bitcoin. Bullish sentiment is fueled by the coin's limited supply and increased adoption of shielded addresses, while some caution against a potential pullback after a significant run-up. The conversation also touches on Zcash's underlying technology and its potential for further growth.

Perpetua Resources (PPTA) is reportedly in talks with Glencore, Trafigura, and other parties about a partnership to refine antimony in the U.S., amid widespread efforts to diversify the supply chains of the critical mineral.According to a Reuters News <a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.reuters.com/world/china/perpetua-resources-talks-with-glencore-others-us-antimony-processing-2025-09-26/">report</a>, the company confirmed that it is speaking with two companies, alongside Clarios and Sunshine Silver, about a refining partnership and intends to request proposals in the coming weeks, with a decision expected by the end of the year.Antimony has a wide range of applications, including night vision technology, explosives, armor-piercing ammunition, and grid-scale energy storage batteries. Perpetua’s Stibnite project holds the biggest reserve of antimony in the U.S. The company began construction at the mine last week, having secured all the necessary permits."We are encouraged by emerging opportunities to expand domestic mineral processing capacity in America and intend to make well-informed, market-based decisions when selecting a partner," Jon Cherry, Perpetua's CEO, reportedly stated.Retail sentiment on Stocktwits about <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/PPTA">Perpetua</a> was in the ‘extremely bullish’ territory at the time of writing.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:794/92;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/PPTA_Sept_26_JPG_b19bc70dbe.webp" alt="PPTA’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 11:52 p.m. ET on Sept. 25, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits" width="794" height="92"><figcaption>PPTA’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 11:52 p.m. ET on Sept. 25, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>The Trump administration is seeking to bolster the domestic mining industry in an effort to reduce its reliance on China, which accounted for over 80% of U.S. antimony exports.

United States Senior Counselor for Trade and Manufacturing Peter Navarro said Thursday that Washington will maintain tariffs on steel and aluminum with no exemptions for the European Union.“There will be no exemptions, no exclusions for steel and aluminum tariffs,” Navarro told reporters. He noted that the U.S. added more than 400 new products to the tariff list this week to curb manipulation and circumvention. “Every time we try to give an exemption or exclusion to one of our allies, they abuse it totally. We learned that it was a slippery slope,” Navarro said, recalling Trump’s previous term in office.Navarro also praised the administration’s 15% tariff on cars, describing it as a cornerstone of Trump’s trade strategy with Europe. “Anybody who criticizes Trump’s policy has to look at the president’s magnificent achievement in dealing with the EU,” he said.His comments come after the U.S. and EU&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/us-eu-announce-tariffs-autos-pharma/chsSuh2Rdid">issued</a> a joint statement earlier on Thursday, formalizing the trade deal announced back in July. The statement also included the possibility of lowering the 15% tariffs on cars, but only if Europe takes steps to lower tariffs on imported U.S. goods as promised.“In many ways I can’t think of a deal more important than the one with the EU. It is, after all, one of the largest entities in the world. It’s important not just economically but strategically, yet for many, many years it has been taking unfair advantage of the U.S.—consistently higher tariffs, consistently higher non-tariff barriers,” Navarro added.U.S. markets were trending lower ahead of Powell’s speech at Jackson Hole on Friday. The&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/SLX">VanEck Steel ETF</a> (SLX) fell 0.5% in afternoon trade, and the&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/IYM">iShares U.S. Basic Materials ETF</a> (IYM) edged 0.1% lower.

The White House is sending fresh signals on Nippon Steel’s proposed acquisition of U.S. Steel (X), with the President set to speak Friday at a Pittsburgh rally celebrating what he called a “planned partnership.”U.S. Steel’s stock rose nearly 1% after the President’s schedule was announced.Trump is set to deliver remarks at 5 p.m. ET on Friday at a U.S. Steel facility in Pennsylvania, a key swing state he carried in the 2024 election. The White House&nbsp;said he will speak about the “U.S. Steel Deal.”Supporters of the transaction are hoping his visit to the state, where U.S. Steel is headquartered, will cap a tumultuous 18-month effort by Nippon Steel to acquire the American company, which has faced numerous setbacks, including union opposition and two national security reviews.However, the final outcome remains uncertain. After initially appearing to endorse the transaction in a Truth Social post last Friday, Trump walked back expectations during comments to reporters on Sunday, characterizing the arrangement as an “investment” that would leave control with the U.S.“This will be a planned partnership between United States Steel and Nippon Steel, which will create at least 70,000 jobs, and add $14 Billion Dollars to the U.S. Economy,” Trump wrote in his post. “I will see you all at U.S. Steel, in Pittsburgh, on Friday, May 30th, for a BIG Rally. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL!”White House trade adviser Peter Navarro echoed the sentiment on Thursday, saying, “U.S. Steel owns the company. Nippon Steel is going to have some involvement but no control.”The President has until next Thursday to issue a formal decision following last week’s conclusion of a second national security review by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S.Nippon Steel has reportedly offered to invest $14 billion in U.S. operations, including $4 billion for a new mill, if the Trump administration approves the merger.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/X">U.S. Steel’s stock</a> has gained 57% this year and 44% over the past 12 months.&nbsp;For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read also:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/palantir-in-talks-with-irs-social-security-as-federal-role-expands-under-trump/ch0uGdDRbu3">Palantir Reportedly In Talks With IRS, Social Security As Federal Role Expands Under Trump</a>

Peabody Energy (BTU) stock rose 5.6% on Monday after the company indicated that it might choose to terminate its $3.8 billion deal to buy Anglo American’s steelmaking coal assets.The company said that it has notified Anglo American of a material adverse change impacting the deal, related to the Moranbah North Mine, which remains inactive following what was described as a gas ignition event on March 31."While we have remained on track to complete the steelmaking coal acquisition from Anglo, the issues at Moranbah North have created significant uncertainty around the transaction," CEO Jim Grech said.The deal was expected to close in mid-2025."A substantial share of the acquisition value was associated with Moranbah North, yet there is no known timetable for resuming longwall production," Grech added.Anglo American said that it does not believe that the stoppage at Moranbah North constitutes a material adverse change, and it would continue to work with Peabody to address its concerns.While Donald Trump’s favorable policies towards coal have renewed enthusiasm around the sector, tariffs on steel imports and an ongoing trade war between the U.S and China have dampened the demand outlook.As reported by The Fly, BMO analysts stated that Peabody's actions are unsurprising given that the Moranbah mine event coincides with the currently soft operating environment and a more challenging debt market.The brokerage noted that this event does not constitute a material adverse change on its own, and Peabody’s claim would likely be challenged.Retail sentiment on Stocktwits was in the ‘bearish’ (43/100) territory, while retail chatter was ‘low.’<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:854/85;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/BTU_M_Ay_6_JPG_628e7198e4.webp" alt="BTU’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 01:22 a.m. ET on May 6, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits" width="854" height="85"><figcaption>BTU’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 01:22 a.m. ET on May 6, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>One retail trader was pleased that the management was not buying a “non-working” asset.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/taxplanr/message/613548944</stembedurl><a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/BTU">Peabody Energy stock</a> have fallen 36% year to date (YTD).Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/celanese-stock-gains-after-hours-on-q1-profit-beat-company-sees-no-direct-tariff-impact-in-q2/chi4uAnRb1K">Celanese Stock Gains After-Hours On Q1 Profit Beat; Company Sees No Direct Tariff Impact In Q2 — Retail Bulls Elated</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Recession playbook says more pain ahead for miners—except in gold

Investing.com -- A looming recession spells more pain for most metals and mining stocks, according to Barclays analysts, who see gold as “the best place to hide.”

(X) and Nucor Corp. (NUE) also climbed, rising about 5% each.The President told reporters that the proposed levies would apply to all countries exporting the metals to the U.S.He said he would announce the new tariffs on Monday, along with “reciprocal tariffs” on Tuesday or Wednesday on countries that have imposed levies on U.S.-made goods.If enacted, the tariffs would make it more expensive for foreign steelmakers to sell in the U.S., giving domestic producers, like Cleveland-Cliffs, a competitive advantage and potentially allowing them to raise prices.<img src="https://st-everywhere-cms-prod.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/Screenshot_2025_02_10_111848_5155617074.png" alt="Screenshot 2025-02-10 111848.png">Retail sentiment on Stocktwits also improved to ‘extremely bullish’ from ‘bullish’ a day ago, as chatter remained at ‘high’ levels.&nbsp;Traders on the platform largely viewed the tariff proposal as a tailwind for Cleveland-Cliffs, which has been vying to expand its market position.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/Dave_Silsby/message/603542767</stembedurl>CEO Lourenco Goncalves&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/cleveland-cliffs-ceo-controversy-us-steel-bid-japan-trade/chG8FmkRV9">drew criticism</a> last month after making inflammatory remarks about Japan during a press conference, where he reiterated the company’s interest in acquiring U.S. Steel while attempting to discredit Japanese firm Nippon Steel’s competing bid.And, just last week, the stock&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/cleveland-cliffs-stock-slides-preliminary-q4-2024-results-below-expectations/chPYPQPRAi">tumbled</a> after the company’s preliminary fourth-quarter results disappointed investors.&nbsp;Cleveland-Cliffs’ stock is down over 42% in the last 12 months but up 18% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read also:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/top-3-materials-stocks-retail-investors-stocktwits/ch5EJlaRtV">These 3 Materials Stocks Led Retail Chatter Last Week</a>
