Two out of the top three paper wallet generation sites are dodgy (bitcoinpaperwallet.com & walletgenerator.net)
I use bitcoin-tool https://github.com/matja/bitcoin-tool But the same questions apply. How do you trust the C code in bitcoin-tool? I think if bitcoin-tool gives the same result as one of the javascript wallet generators, the developers of the different apps are unlikely to be conspiring

The number of LTC addresses is skyrocketing!
Open Source Litecoin is fully decentralized in the fact any one person could submit code into the network and as long as a majority of miners agree to that fork it will be implimented. This is similar to bitcoin.

Litecoin MWEB transaction serialization and weight calculation issue
However, this serialization format seems to contradict with BIP 0144, which states: "if the witness is empty, the old serialization format must be used." also contradict the comments in the litecoin source code at https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin/blob/master/src/primitives/transaction.h

Mimblewimble Progress Update Thread - November
In order to add MWEB support to PSBTs, I first had to merge in PSBTv2 (BIP-0370), which can be seen here. I then defined the MWEB fields we needed to add, and added them to the PSBT data structures along with serialization and deserialization here.
