Expert Statements

Charlie Lee, Creator of Litecoin and member of the Board of Directors of Lite Strategy

“When I launched Litecoin in 2011, I wanted to build a faster, cheaper network for everyday transactions. Fifteen years later, that’s still the job. But today, it’s not just about the age, I see a lot in the people active in Litecoin and the work we’re doing together. We are continuing to build Litecoin to be even more secure and sustainable for the long term, ensuring it delivers on its original promise as our community grows.”

Jay File, CEO and CFO of Lite Strategy

“In crypto, you can buy attention, but you can’t buy fifteen years of continuous uptime. Fifteen years without the network going offline, through every market cycle and every challenge along the way, is the kind of hard-earned track record institutional investors look for. Lite Strategy provides public-market investors with a transparent, regulated vehicle to gain direct exposure to that enduring institutional foundation. Both Charlie and I share that long-term vision.”
