In 2017 litecoin became the first significant cryptocurrency to adopt segwit(segregated witness system) litecoin separate transactions signature and create a more substantial blocksize limit on the blockchain. His goal was to build an internet currency that would challenge the Bitcoin that was common in places where it was weak.
