Title: Question about NBitcoin project (possibility of handling litecoin) Post by: piotrgal on January 06, 2016, 03:26:03 PM I have a question to someone knowing well that project (the .NET bitcoin implementation created by Nicolas Dorier) Assuming all the similarities between bitcoin and litcoin, I'm just wondering - would it be feasible / doable to adapt NBitcoin to also handle litecoin? I mean not necessary in one codebase, but maybe as a child / side project? Besides the "scrypt" algo (because that's the most obvious part), how much work eventually could that be?

nbitcoin uses blockexplerer services to grab data, so it shouldnt be hard to change from bitcoins use of blockr.io to a litecoin explorer. the rpc call commands are literally identical to call on a specific txid or address.. all that really needs to change is the first bits. so that public addresses begin with an L instead of a 1 |
