Thoughts on Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash and Dogecoin?

Litecoin, launched in 2011 by Charlie Lee, aimed to be a faster, lighter Bitcoin alternative, using Scrypt and a 2.5-minute block time for everyday transactions. Bitcoin Cash, forked from Bitcoin in 2017, prioritizes scalability with larger blocks (up to 32 MB) and SHA-256, targeting low-cost, peer-to-peer cash use. Dogecoin, created in 2013 as a meme by Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer, uses Scrypt with a 1-minute block time, thriving on community appeal and an uncapped supply.

All three stem from Bitcoin’s codebase, rely on proof-of-work, and are decentralized. Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash cap at 84 million and 21 million coins, respectively, while Dogecoin’s supply grows indefinitely. Litecoin focuses on efficiency, Bitcoin Cash on scalability, and Dogecoin on fun and accessibility, each carving a unique role in crypto.

Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts on these three coins!
