The asset’s earlier implementation of SegWit, as well as preparation of Lightning Network and other so-called Layer 2 technology, is already paying dividends.

“Better than Bitcoin”

Bitcoin core developer Eric Lombrozo repeated excitement surrounding the activation after the roadmap unveiling, noting “next generation tech” can already see the light of day on Litecoin.

Meanwhile, content management platform Yours confirmed Thursday that it would launch on Litecoin and not Bitcoin “due to the fee situation.”

Taking Litecoin forward meanwhile are developers Shaolinfry and thrasher, the first having become a household name in cryptocurrency circles from their work on user-activated soft fork (UASF) scaling solutions.
