Compatibility still needs homework

Familiar tools can carry unfamiliar assumptions.

An editorial diligence path for compatibility claims.

LitVM’s EVM-differences guide documents variable block production and warns that Solidity’s block.number reflects an approximate Ethereum-layer number rather than the LitVM block number. It also warns against using block hashes as secure randomness and separates execution cost from data-posting cost. These details are more useful to a builder than a broad promise that a contract can simply move unchanged.

The project FAQ checked for this edition describes audits as in progress and mainnet after token-generation and audit milestones. Our readiness framework is therefore deliberately concrete: a versioned implementation, public review scope, reproducible tests, clear upgrade powers and an understood exit path. No single badge answers all five questions. An anniversary can welcome ambitious experiments while insisting on that clarity. The Litecoin family grows stronger when newcomers can tell a live protocol feature, a released application, a prototype and a roadmap apart without already being experts.

  • Check block semantics, fees and randomness assumptions.
  • Audit status in the FAQ: in progress at October 4 cutoff.
