stellar-core VS litecoin

There is an active scam proliferating using a fake "Stellar" site. Make sure that you are only accessing the official Stellar website, which is https://www.stellar.org/, type the URL into your browser address bar. Always check the full URL before entering any personal information — make sure, for example, someone did not replace a lowercase "L" with an uppercase "i"! or that there are no additional letters following ".org/" in the domain address such as "stellar.org.jp/".

"Stellar Core": This software was created by the Stellar Development Foundation (SDF). Anyone can use it to run their own blockchain https://github.com/stellar/stellar-core

it's a code fork of https://github.com/stellar/stellar-core with very minor modifications as far as has been ascertained.

Stellar network

The coin is designed to benefit cannabis communities and businesses (eco-friendly, fast, and very low transactions fees via Stellar Network). You can currently buy cannabis products with the coin at Everlasting Extracts and 2 other businesses.

I would not call the "survey of 2,079 respondents" by Stellar Development Foundation [0] "woefully-lacking-of-legit-citations".

Pi is running their own chain using the stellar blockchain software. It's open source so anyone can do this. https://github.com/stellar/stellar-core

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.

Progress continues with the integration of Litecoin code changes into the v24 Bitcoin codebase. The month of May saw a major milestone with the resolution of all remaining functional tests for the pre-MWEB merge task. The code has been submitted for review here.

git clone https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin.git

"If upgrading to 0.21.2 after MWEB has activated, you must resync to download MWEB blocks." https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin/releases

I tried following this tutorial: https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin/blob/master/doc/build-osx.md

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

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.

A pull request has also been submitted for downloading and verifying HogEx transactions, MWEB headers, and the UTXO leafset bitmap. This covers steps 2 and 3 of the light client sync process.
