+    longDescription= ''
+      Litecoin is a peer-to-peer Internet currency that enables instant payments
+      to anyone in the world. It is based on the Bitcoin protocol but differs
+      from Bitcoin in that it can be efficiently mined with consumer-grade hardware.
+      Litecoin provides faster transaction confirmations (2.5 minutes on average)
+      and uses a memory-hard, scrypt-based mining proof-of-work algorithm to target
+      the regular computers and GPUs most people already have.
+      The Litecoin network is scheduled to produce 84 million currency units.
