Litecoin is a fork of Bitcoin and was created to improve its functionality. The Litecoin network offers lower transaction fees and utilizes the Lighting Network which allows it to process some transactions away from the main blockchain. Also, Litecoin recently introduced the Mimblewible upgrade that allows users to conceal transaction information if requested. LTC is widely used for purchases and trading.
Whilst Litecoin’s fees are much lower, Ethereum's transaction speed is faster. Ethereum is the second biggest cryptocurrency in the world and is known for its smart contracts. Other well-established cryptocurrencies, such as TRON, are based on the Ethereum network and benefit from its technologies. The native token of the network, ETH, powers the mentioned-above smart contracts and is crucial for the network’s inner workings. ETH is mainly used in work involving smart contracts and even to transfer property.
Overall, both currencies are quite valuable and do great work in different fields. If you are looking to develop a DApp or work with smart contracts - Ethereum could be perfect for you. But if you just want to store your value in crypto assets and make payments - Litecoin might fit your requests.
