As we are approaching the 10th anniversary of Litecoin, I figured it's a good time to do a long Twitter 🧵 on the history of Litecoin from my perspective.
My memory of events can be hazy at times, so for those mentioned, feel free to add or correct anything I say. Here goes...
On 2026-04-25, the @Litecoin network faced abnormal activity involving invalid MWEB transactions and a temporary chain split.
f2pool detected the issue in real time and responded immediately, continuing to mine on the valid chain under the correct consensus rules.
After a tense 13-block chase, the valid chain caught up. From block 3,095,931 onward, f2pool mined the key blocks that helped the valid chain overtake the invalid fork, leading to a natural reorg back to the correct chain.
A massive thank you to all f2pool miners for continuously contributing your hashrate to secure Litecoin!

I’ve spent 25 years in finance and capital markets.
I thought I had seen every version of an undervalued asset until I looked at Litecoin.
This network processed more than 380 million transactions so far.
It provides hard money with a privacy feature that other assets lack.
And all this without a second of downtime for 14 years.
Despite this, there was almost zero publicly accessible equity exposure for investors who wanted it through a stock.
So we built it.
@LiteStrategy is the world’s largest publicly traded Litecoin treasury company.
Our goal? Bring Litecoin to public markets so millions can gain access to one of the world’s most enduring digital assets.
I am proud to be on this mission with our board members, @satoshilite, creator of Litecoin and @joshriezman, @GSR_io’s US Chief Strategy Officer and Head of US Legal.
I am here to share the thesis and the journey. The opportunity is bigger than the markets realize.
Payments. Privacy. Hard money.

Flashback Friday: On March 27, 2023, Litecoin was deemed a commodity by the CFTC, the regulatory body for commodities. A significant and obvious decision, giving everyone the clear regulatory framework to build on. Being launched fairly, Litecoin has been a commodity from the start. LTC⚡️
