Litecoin shouldn't exist.
Launched in 2011, it watched as thousands of fancy cryptocurrencies promised to replace it, only to quietly eliminate almost all of them.
This survivor, abandoned by all, is about to do something completely unexpected.
In this conversation, Roc and Aztec of LitVM detail a major extension that finally brings smart contracts to one of the oldest brands in the cryptocurrency space.
They believe the recent decline (which they attribute to predatory short selling) masks a much quieter trend: funds are steadily flowing back into mature, traditional assets that have withstood over a decade of market cycles.
The project itself is a specially built Layer 2 (L2) modular stack that natively supports the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), making Litecoin compatible with the EVM.
They point out that while mainstream blockchains support dozens of Layer 2 protocols, LitVM is the only one built on Litecoin, using zero-knowledge encryption to allow users to initiate smart contracts and real-world assets without trust.
The following section is particularly noteworthy.
Without any airdrop rewards, the testnet has already surpassed 40 million transactions and reached 3 million active wallets, indicating that the focus is on the technology itself, not the rewards.
Roc and Aztec will explain the significance behind this and why they believe the oldest survivor in the cryptocurrency space may be writing its most important chapter…

From now on, anyone buying US stocks without registering will have their illegal gains confiscated and be fined…
However, cryptocurrencies are legally classified as virtual goods and are not subject to this new regulation. 🤡

Someone just asked me about the virtual drive I set up in 2019. This virtual drive had already surpassed 10 million in value a long time ago because of the sudden surge in OKB. So I stopped updating it after that, but today I checked and it still has 9 million.

Bitcoin developer Burak unveils "Cube," a Bitcoin Layer 2 protocol he calls the "holy grail."
Burak, known for pointing out flaws in the Lightning Network and creating a Layer 2 protocol called Ark, has now launched a new project called Cube.
Cube is a Bitcoin-native execution layer that combines Ark-style one-way exit mechanisms, BitVM's dispute resolution mechanism, and a programmable virtual machine.
Its core concept is to bring completely trustless smart contract execution to Bitcoin, eliminating the risks of bridging, consortiums, external validators, protocol changes, or escrow.
According to the project, users can always unilaterally control their funds through Bitcoin's enforced exit mechanism, while smart contracts execute optimistically off-chain and settle back to Bitcoin when necessary.
Cube's architecture combines Ark-style timeout trees (for ownership guarantees) and BitVM-style challenge mechanisms (for computational verification), creating what Burak calls Zero-Knowledge Time-Locked Contracts (ZKTLC).
If Cube functions as expected, it will achieve general programmability without sacrificing self-preservation, trustlessness, or the Bitcoin security model.

According to Wu, Wong Tin-yau, Chairman of the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), stated at the “Digital Hong Kong Financial Summit 2026,” co-organized by the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology's Institute of Finance and Tsinghua University's Institute for Global Development, that the trading volume of the 12 licensed virtual asset trading platforms in Hong Kong exceeded HK$640 billion in 2025, with a nearly threefold year-on-year increase in the first quarter of this year.
Wong Tin-yau stated that Hong Kong will optimize its comprehensive regulatory framework for virtual assets at the institutional level, covering key aspects such as custody, trading, asset management, and investment advisory services. Public consultation on the relevant licensing system has been completed, and legislative proposals will be finalized with the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau. The goal is to submit a draft bill to the Legislative Council in 2026 to establish a regulatory system that is fully aligned with international standards and strictly implements the principle of "same business, same risks, same rules."
