The company released the figures Jun. 23 from Las Vegas, where it built LitVM as Litecoin's first EVM-compatible Layer-2, linking native assets to Ethereum-style smart contracts. The testnet went live in April.

More than 1.5 million wallets signed up in the past two weeks alone, lifting the total above 4.4 million, the company said. Developers have launched over 50 apps spanning decentralized finance, real-world assets and AI services, from cross-chain swaps to prediction markets where AI agents compete. The company highlighted eight flagship apps, several still in active development.

Roc Zacharias, the chief executive of Lunar Digital Assets, co-founded LitVM. "What these metrics demonstrate is that developers and users want to do even more with their Litecoin," he said. "Millions of wallets, tens of millions of transactions, and dozens of live applications have emerged during the testnet phase alone," said co-founder Aztec Amaya.

Litecoin has run since 2011 as one of crypto's oldest payment networks, prized for fast and low-cost transfers rather than the programmable apps common on Ethereum. The Litecoin Foundation backs the network.
