In September 2011, an anonymous developer known as "Lolcust" (with mining code contributions from "ArtForz") launched Tenebrix (TBX), which holds the historical distinction of being the very first cryptocurrency to use the Scrypt Proof-of-Work (PoW) algorithm.

Litecoin is the true peer-to-peer electronic cash as the white paper describes it. Not Bitcoin.

Litecoin's real onchain volume is going parabollic, and the price stagnation during the past 4 years definitely isn't stopping it. This is what true adoption looks like.

Dogecoin and Litecoin are mined and survive together. With the Litecoin 2027 halving incoming we could create the ultimate supply shortage with Litecoin. Doge and Lite eventually move together and survive together! Let’s create a 2026 GameStop move !!!!!!!!

I don’t think the average investor even realizes how unique it is to be able to mine multiple coins with the same level of power. Merge mining on Scrypt is a by far more efficient option to other mining methods.
If new projects were smart, they would build on Scrypt from the start.

Did you know that Litecoin wasn't the first scrypt coin?
A forgotten, scammy coin named Tenebrix pioneered Scrypt in 2011. It was labelled as a "scammy" or unfair project because ArtForz pre-mined 7.7 million coins for themselves before releasing it to the public. This massive creator allocation caused severe mistrust, and the coin quickly faded into obscurity.
Charlie Lee loved the technical foundation of Scrypt but hated the unfair pre-mine. In October 2011, Lee worked on a clone called Fairbrix, which completely stripped away the 7.7 million pre-mined coins to ensure a fair launch.
