Well the confirmation time is shorter which is a plus
I think litecoin more faster than bitcoin if about confirmation,
Sometimes I took 15 minutes or more to get 1 confirmation when sent bitcoin
The block time of Ethereum is 12 seconds, it need 500 blocks to confirm a transaction in poloniex. so the total time is 6,000 seconds. For litecoin, the block time is 2.5 minutes, it needs at least 24 blocks to properly confirm a transaction.
