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.

- Any reasons to hodl ecash vs Litecoin for instance ?

I have a 112-character hex (56 bytes) bitcoin private key from before 2014. How do I get the address from that private key?
E.g. pycoin

ICP is so decentralised that to run a node you have to buy it from “approved distributors”. Lol. What a pile of garbage
The above snippet will convert your secret into a private key. Use this private key as an argument to pycoin's ku command (https://github.com/richardkiss/pycoin) — this will generate multiple lines of output, including your private key reformatted as “wif” and ”uncompressed” bitcoin private keys. Import the ”wif” and ”uncompressed” bitcoin private keys into a new Electrum bitcoin wallet.
