OP, could you give a TL;DR to a feeble-brained member like myself (who's probably not drunk enough coffee as well)? I'm curious, because LCC is one of the small number of altcoins I'm interested in.
I would say that there is some misunderstanding here. Judging by previous OP's references, he talking about LNC, initially a Litecoin Cash fork. For example his post in the ANN thread
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.60886276 where he puts a link to Coingecko listing also only trading pair LNC/UTIP on scam unanmed.exchange.
Also, this is useful information for you in this case:

"Starting blockchain height -----> will be the same as Litecoin Cash when LightningCash will be launched and LCC holders will get LTNCs"
^^^ At first, LightningCash was supposed to be a Litecoin Cash fork. I was just starting to play with the bitcoin source code back then. I asked Tanner from LitecoinCash's team to help me ( Lead Dev ) , and he did.[/size]
The original and official ANN, on March 6th 2019 ( LightningCash - CPU only - Fastest bitcoin based cryptocurrency ) :
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/lightningcash-cpu-only-fastest-bitcoin-based-cryptocurrency-5117428I decided to create a new genesis block, so no LCC, or LTC holders could claim...
To the OP
I always like to see a developer develop their idea, but from what I've seen, this whole thing the OP is talking about is a complete fiasco. an obvious example of why most altcoins are called shitcoins.
It happens that you lose control over your accounts. I am talking about your case from (or before) 04 February 2021
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.56423001are you sure you have enough capacity for a project like the one you envisioned? only knowledge of coding is not enough for that.
Yeah I agree, LCC is a complete fiasco. LNC, on the other side, is actively developed. It will be in atomicDEX next release ( Komodo's ).
Here are the pull requests links on github to support what I'm saying.
https://github.com/KomodoPlatform/atomicDEX-Desktop/pull/1963 ----> merged
https://github.com/KomodoPlatform/coins/pull/487 ----> merged
And the draft pull request for their next release, atomicDEX-desktop version 0.5.7 :
https://github.com/KomodoPlatform/atomicDEX-Desktop/pull/1988in which I contributed here :

https://github.com/MerlinMagic2018... I have many more... " anonymity " needs this... ...however, I am now mostly and easily publicly found...
... are you trying to insinuate my coin, LightningCash, is a shitcoin ? ... I'm just asking.
atomicDEX from Komodo's technologies, made a deal with binance.com lately.
Here is the video from the live stream between binance and Komodo's admins ... :

My coin got the hive tech, and plz know that I am really not afan of any POS and/or other pyramidal mining scheme...
My coin is ultimately based on Litecoin Cash, yes.... but it is CPU only... ecological... economical... fair mining... secure... it has, for example, a modified DarkGravityWave v3 mining retargeting algorithm which progressively lower the mining difficulty in CURRENT mined block, if a " high hash attack " occurs ( someone dumping lots of mining power and droping suddenly... ) . This way, the chain CANNOT stop. And yes, a time window attack is rendered impossible, because the time window is smaller than the time it takes before the mining difficulty starts to get progressively lower.
And this is just one of the many modificatiosn it has from LitecoinCash / Litecoin / Bitcoin.
Maybe my altcoin is better than most after all ? You, reading this, decide for yourself.
....... ah and I forgot........ the block time is 5 seconds.
And it works. A bit more orphans, but the electricity wasted is negligeable since it's all CPU only mining ( yespower / hive ).
A transaction is therefore " officially " confirmed in 30 seconds.
I remember satoshi debating about Bitcoin's potential to be accepted by merchants for, for example, distributing machines. ( the ones in which we put fiat money to but, for example a coke a seven up... ).
Maybe a 5 second confirmation would make this possible WITHOUT having to use bitcoin's Lightning protocol ? ...
Just saying.
... after all, my coin is named LightningCash ... I didn't choose that name back in 2018 randomly.. ;-)
And please, remember that bitcoin once was mined by just one man. And it was worth nothing, apart from he potential it had as a good p2p opensource digital currency. I believe that the real value of a digital currency vs. a fiat currency controlled by the banks/financial system has been debated enough already, so I will not add more here. Just look at the Bitcoin's genesis block message.
And it is precisely about to happen again now, in 2022...
Yes, I thought that being able to claim LNCs with LTC or LCC wallets, even with ratios, would have been a mistake. I decided this alone. Those chains got plenty of hacks, steals, and money laundering associated to them already. My coin is not perfect. Nothing is in this world. But I am dedicated to make it the best I can.
And for the scalability/wallet sync issue... I have been thinking about a solution for many months now. And surprisingly, the answer came from Tanner, LCC's main dev, the coin that you put, I think, in the "shitcoin" category.
Compressing the chain in under 200 blocks, without adding another premine ( my premine was barely above 1 % of max supply which is about 110 millions coins... and it has been spent in the first few months to help compete with the already huge volume many other altcoins had back then in 2019. ) It is also Tanner that said somewhere that a premine under 2 % is normal and considered " fair " .
I.E. : I am saying that Tanner is a very talented crypto developer. I was very bad at first. I made shitcoins at first. They all died pretty fast. With each experimen I made, I learned new stuff. And I also said that I would stop doing this and would stick to LightningCash. After almost 4 years, this is precisely what I have done.
I left, came back, left and came back many times. shadow42 stealing my accounts and my copyrighted coin is one example why I did this.
I feel I am in full control again. And the circumstances in my life are now better than ever.
Regarding sirius/Theymos ....
I am sorry I had to mention them. I feel bad and they probably are a bit mad at me right now. But yeah... I know them. Not personaly.... but closely... from " remote " ...
Just talked to sirius today. We even like the same kind of music.
Anyways, this is personal stuff which should not have to be told in this scam accusation thread against LCC's discord mods, mainly. I am pretty sure scarlet from LCC's dev team ( they were 4 guys at launch in 2018 ) has something to do with me being isolated, defamed, lied to, intimidated, hacked, atacked. etc.
But I believe and really hope, that Tanner, LCC's lead dev, is not.
