Vertcoin is a cryptocurrency like Bitcoin or Litecoin with an added focus on keeping the ecosystem as decentralized as possible. We believe that cryptocurrencies should belong to the people. Anything less than this is a failure to cryptocurrency itself. Vertcoin was created in with the intention of being easily mined by the masses.
While other cryptocurrencies have succumbed to monopolized mining, Vertcoin remains resistant to the specialised hardware that is used to mine currencies like Bitcoin. As mining represents an ownership in the network we believe that everyone has the right to access. We have created an easy One-Click Miner to help you get started with mining. Download One Click Miner. Lightning Network is a payment layer designed to solve the problems of scalability, speed and transaction costs without compromising security standards.
LIT is the first Lightning Network to include Vertcoin support , and currently the only non-commercial Lightning Network implementation, meaning that it can never be monetised. Atomic Swaps allow for decentralized swapping of cryptocurrencies without a 3rd party. This means that a merchant could accept your Vertcoin payment and easily change it into Bitcoin or any other supported currency. Lightning presents an interesting challenge. Solving this you have two choices. You could give control of your funds to a third party having them manage it for you and doing so recreating the banking system we already have.
Alternatively, you could have a device in your house similar to a small router in your house that manages your Lightning transactions. This is the only option that lets you control your funds.
Decentralisation forms the basis of cryptocurrency. Without decentralisation, cryptocurrency has either become either a scam or a failure.
