Litecoin Foundation has made the choice of keeping its large token on BitGo independent storage wallet.
On January 3rd, 2020, Litecoin Foundation announced that it has chosen BitGo multi-signature wallets for its custody solution, hence, Litecoin will keep its holdings in the multi-signature wallets.
The wallets will help safeguard Litecoin’s crypto assets, with a complex combination of alphanumeric values used as a private key in accessing the crypto holding.
However, BitGo is yet to release an official statement regarding the update. In December, BitGo announced that in 2020, it will be launching a streamlined, opt-in solution in compliance with the FATF’s Travel Rule.

The targeted fund required to implement MimbleWimble on Litecoin is $72,000, indicating that a quarter of the milestone which has been raised is $18,000.
Charlie Lee promised to match the donations in ratio 1:1 with the community, which means the founder would contribute $36,000. However, some of the Litecoin community members think the community has raised enough, and the founder should cough out the remaining funds and stop tasking the community.
Just f*cking donate the rest yourself Mr. "I Sold at the ATH" https://t.co/my75UOojNg
