Launch date: Monday 5th, 6:00 PM CST4 hours left!http://lithiumcoin.orgAboutLithium is a distributed protocol that uses Blockchain technology based on Bitcoin to create consensus among the the network. Lithium has an internal currency unit called XLT that incentivates miners to help secure the network. Lithium uses a blockchain security system called proof of stake to prevent double spending and solve the Byzantines Generals problem. It also uses the proof of work system, but only for three days with the main objective of distributing the the coins in a democratic and fair way.
Fair DistributionUnlike Ripple where the creators openly say they won't give away 40% of the total coins. Lithium will be entirely distributed among fair mining with no premine at all.
Unlike NXT which was initilly distributed among 70 investors, Lithium will be democratically distributed among thousands of miners.
Unlike Blackcoin that was heavily instamiend by Scrypt ASIC farms, thus undemocratically distributed, Lithium uses the Scrypt-Jane algorithm and Adaptative N-factor Technology to make mining fair for everyone.
InflationBitcoin's current inflation is around 10% per year, Lithium will solve this problem by only having creation 2% inflation per year. The perfect balance between price stability and a good incentive for proof-of-stake miners to help secure the network.
Energy efficientUnlike many coins that use the long term unsustainable proof of work system, Lithium reduces the electricity cost to the minimum by implementing proof of stake.
