Litecoin Embraces Zero-Knowledge Technology, Enabling Cross-Chain Transactions

Litecoin has taken a significant step toward greater scalability and interoperability by integrating its first zero-knowledge (ZK) rollup through BitcoinOS, a modular Layer 2 platform for Bitcoin. The integration introduces LitVM, a new Ethereum-compatible Layer 2 environment for Litecoin that enables trustless cross-chain functionality with Bitcoin and Cardano. This development marks the first application of ZK rollup technology to Litecoin, known for its lightning-fast transactions and long history as a digital currency alternative.
