Litecoin uses Scrypt, a different hashing algorithm than Bitcoin, to shorten the time it takes to generate new blocks of transactions. As a result, Litecoin’s network has higher transaction speeds and lower fees than Bitcoin. For example, Litecoin processes 56 transactions per second, while Bitcoin only processes 7 per second.
