Sold my Ether several days ago. Only an ignorant goat would keep his Ether at this point.
Ether has absolutely no value; all of its value was created out of thin air. I took a big, foolish risk by selling my LTC for ETH, but fortunately it paid off, and now I am back in legitimate alternative cryptocurrency, namely: LITECOIN.

Fun fact: When I sold my relatively small amount of Ether, the price went down DOZENS OF CENTS. Says enough about the liquidity of this shit/joke/ipo/scam coin.  :D :D :D

Time to take a ride fueled by something else?

That's what I was thinking ^^

Did you jump into ETH or Monero or one of those?  I'd agree that ltc is boring but it has its uses, like doge.  If you're trying to get rich quick it's a very bad choice however. 

You did the right thing bro.

I put everything into Ethereum and bought another $7,500 worth of it, also planning on changing my other altcoins (approx worth $184 combined) and my last 8 BTC to Ethereum.

ETH is a real world purpose BTC  :)

I thought you were totally anti-Ethereum just a minute ago. I thought that you would be stubborn forever and you wouldn't ever change your mind. It seems I was wrong !

He has multiple personalities,this one gets all wet when hearing about ethereum.The other personality of his is just jealous..
DONT YOU DARE GIVING UP LTC,the silver to bitcoin's gold !!!!!!!!11111

Amen brother! Proof of work is the devil incarnate! Rise up, and accept the true road to salvation - proof of stake alternative cryptocurrencies.

Check out Bitshares and Gridcoin!

Welcome to Ethereum, enjoy the ride :)

You are smarter than i gave you credit for.  It takes a certain strength of mind to change ones mind. 

Welcome to ethereum.

Very drastic action if true.

I have stashed some eth away now only a few hundred but still will add more as  I can.
But selling 10k LTC at this point seems very drastic.

That is a drastic decision you should left even a small amount who knows litecoin could rebound in the future,they have been very stable in the last 3 years,f course there are a lot of criticism anf prediction but Litecoin has stayed on,they will still rebound ..

Yeah. Me too. Droped all of my LTC. All in on ETH and BTC now.

I still have LTC, small amount, just wait until one day, it may has its day.

I admit that LTC iw very boring, nothing to offer, can not tell a story, like DASH or ETH.You can tell a story, although maybe contraversal story.

Litecoin will rise again someday but i'll go fir eth. it is a high price

It will be fun to revisit this thread if litecoin ever moons again. I remember people selling thousands of ltc saying it has no future right before it shot up to $48. Wonder what happened to those people.

Yeah that was years ago.

Buy high, sell low. That's the spirit.

Moved my Ltc into ETH.

I knew this would be one of the first questions.  ;)

50% of my BTC just went in to it two days ago. Was seriously thinking about it when they were $3  ::)
Its passed the $10 obstacle. Fingers crossed, I also find BTC a rather boring coin.

Sell that LTC and get it in to ETH. You will be kicking your self with a sledge hammer in a few months time. OP is right, coins like LTC are boring. It serves no purpose and all you can hope for is a pump and make a few btc at best off those rare occasions. ETH has seriously huge potential and dare I say has the biggest potential of all Alts to knock btc from the top slot. BTC its self isnt going anywhere. Its gold rush is long over. ETH on the other hand..

Litecoin died the day KNC took all its customers Scrypt miners and packed them into their own dator hall.

This is very poor investment decision.

Your timing is way off.

High chance for huge losses when buying after it went up parabolic x20 :-\


Please watch my video 'Nxt Dooms - Ethereum Booms - Bitcoin 2.0 Glooms'

Also google the 'law of reversion to the mean'.

Lol are people supposed to take crypto investment advice from you?  ::)

Well, in contrast to most investors I have been able to live from my investments the past 9 years while not eating into my starting capital that has continued to 'grow' at real inflation rate of 5% per year.

That is not a bad performance considering my largest investments (Nxt, Bitcoin, Clam) just had the biggest bear market in it's history.

What have you proven?

Well, you invest in shitcoins.  Why? Is it because english is not your first language therefore you fall for scamcoins and shitcoins because you do not have the psychosocial aptitude to properly judge the state of something?

Yes, I've been around here since 2011 and will not use my regular account for schilling on any coin. ETH has the trajectory, the trader numbers behind it and the all important volume backing it up. Its way beyond the scope of any pump and dump group now.  Thread bookmarked. I will remind you.

You have zero Bitcoin. That's your only reason for speaking with forked tongue. I wont lose anything. What I just bought is set to sell instantly in the event of any crash.  I can remember when Bitcoin was 12 bucks and foolish men saying the same thing. I can remember when Bitcoin was $60 bucks and more fools repeating the same line. Doesnt matter the price there's always cucks who will spew forth rambling statements. Nothing in life is guaranteed except foolish men who stand on the sidelines doing nothing.

NXT evangelist, no vested interest there.  Your NXT cohorts are pondering the big sell as are many other bag holders of numerous coins. It breached the psychological $10 barrier yesterday. That's  a Supernova event. Yesterday there was 96 mil of Bitcoin trading volume, the day before it was 80+. Today its 102 million.  Large BTC holders are investing.


Why do I need to. Just set a price auto out.  ::)

Ethereum rise 1000% without being on major exchanges. If Ethereum goes on major exchanges, it will become easy $100 per Ether coin.
Litecoin is on all major exchanges excpect Coinbase and it keep going down! LTC is a shitcoin!

Woot!  Glad to have you on the team!

I think this topic needs to be a sticky. I will keep it bumped

I remember last july when ltc rose from $1.45 to $8.50 - years ago you say?

Lets remind everyone of this thread

You sold and it suddenly becomes shit coin.

Yes, you made a very wise decision in investing in dying ETH  ;D

Hello, first, THANK YOU for the cheap coins!

Litecoin is a boring coin? why? because it's stable like a rock? because it's not a pump and dump PRE-MINED scam coin like bublEthereum ???

If you want "action" (action => pump and dump pre-mined scam coins like ethereum to make quick money) good luck, you are in the correct place (in ethereum)

Now, Stop talking sh*t, please!

Well eth is traded on Poloniex and Kraken and those two are right now the two biggest exchanges out there.
I think when were are on homestead phase other exchanges will start listing eth also but I strongly disagree that after that eth will
just suddenly go 10x it's value. It's the tech and use of it that drives value not exchange listings.

LTC is stable and could do well depending on how BTC deals with block size issues.

I'm sorry man. :'( but your anger needs to be pointed at the ASIC companies and corrupt exchanges; LTC could be a lot bigger if it wasn't for them. Ethereum is designed to work in tandem with BTC and LTC. I'm surprised they took the IPO route but hey, why can't it be used for good? Do the scammers have a monopoly on IPOs?

I have seen a few BTC die hards now suggesting BTC becomes a store of wealth. Whilst they use.....LTC and DOGE for currency for the meanwhile :)

Same when shit went down at cryptsy. First coins everyone headed for were LTC and DOGE.

They work fine as currencies right now and are running at like 1% so plenty of room to expand.

The thing with these btc 2.0 coins perhaps they introduce many great features but many great problems further down the line.

Let's wait and see. Keep a hand in with all of them and you won't go wrong.

Litecoin may indeed be dead, but I am holding on to the few hundred I have left for one final pump. I am hoping if BTC catches a rise due to the halving, that LTC will follow it up some. If it gets anywhere near $10 again I think I will be cashing out the rest too, as I think a lot of other people are thinking the same thing. It is hard to keep the faith after years of stagnate movement.

But how is it dead?

It does what it was created to do? Now it's merged with DOGE it is a very secure coin.
Although the asics have centralised the mining.


The extra things 2.0 coins are using the blockchain for are a double edged sword. Even Etherium - nobody is sure it is going to scale with mass adoption. We will have to wait and see.

OP is already underwater on ETH while the LTC price in terms of BTC is sitting on the low-low. Ain't hard to see where the upside is on these trades atm. On one hand, I feel bad for the newcomers that are gonna be slaughtered on ETH as this bubble deflates. OTOH, caveat emptor and take your profits when you get them in these altcoins and add to your BTC stash.

Just to correct you on one point, doge had to merge with litecoin in order to survive, Charles lee's initial attempts to help Dogecoin were met with the online equivalent of a spit in the face for his troubles. The Dogecoin community finally realised Charles lee was correct, so the bitter pill could be digested by the Dogecoin community it was re-packaged as something like suchmuchpowwow and twisted completely around as Dogecoin was helping litecoin.

litecoin can remain there to please those pump and dumper for a long time, it's not death but's it's doomed to remain a tool for manipulators only

I dont think so that litecoin or LTC is dead as it has already establish its name already. Though the price almost is stagnant, but from time to time there are someone trading it,meaning not completely dead.We will also wait the effects of btc halving..

I agree with you. I did read that before. However I'm just saying those two merged together are quite secure in comparison to a lot of other coins. If BTC was having a huge issue people would vacate to USD doge or ltc.... perhaps some now to ethereum too. Although if i was one of the first to jump at this point it would be into ltc or doge. Then etherium.

it saddens me but i have to agree with this.
i also find litecoin so boring with nothing to offer. there has been no change whatsoever and no forward movement.
litecoin is just staying where it was, a copy of bitcoin that not even developers care about.

what makes a crypto is not how advanced it is but how easy it is for the average person to use. If you can use bitcoin then you can use litecoin, i think litecoins simplicity is going to work in its favour in the long term. One only has to take a look at nxt to see this in action, nice shiny tech but no real world use.

Just bookmarked this thread to come back to if litecoin ever moons again. If litecoin ever hits prices of $100+ people will say "remember that guy who sold 10,000 litecoins". This could be the future "pizza thread" of litecoin lol.

It's always good to keep a few hundred, considering bitcoin's halving is coming around in July, it might make LTC go moon.

Agree, welcome to the future of crypto.

Bitcoin and Litecoin, ever!

If bitcoin skyrockets, litecoin will follow double, triple, quadruple in the gains/profits

To me there are only 2 cryptos, Bitcoin and Litecoin, the rest are the rest...


Why not Litecoin?

https://medium.com/@chitty/why-not-litecoin-f4457b61fce2#.9gc9psdah (https://medium.com/@chitty/why-not-litecoin-f4457b61fce2#.9gc9psdah)

Lol. You were criticizing Ethereum shills and Poloniex as usual, and less than two hours later you tell everyone you've ditched 10,000 Litecoins for ETH. And after reading way too many of your deranged, hysterical comments from the last two years, I strongly suspect you're only a troll.
Litecoin will surpass $48. Mark my words.

Litecoin is useless coin. It will be sub $2 before eyar's end. It will never be even $10 again, let alone $48.
If that somehow magivcally happens, i will give away $1000 to people who posted in this topic in favour of LTC, but I am only making this ''offer'' / statement because I am 10000% sure it will NEVER happen. The $1000 could as well be $1 trillion :)

LTC -->poopcoin.

I'm in for a free $trillion.. it will make $10 again. It may never retake position 2.

When exchanges go rocky people run for doge and ltc.  Ethereum is good. I think you made an okay move. I would have gone 50/50 though just in case.

Mass adoption eth going to be pretty hard when 98% of 'holder" have zero clue about it from a technical standpoint.  It's not user friendly and like many have said the public can barely understand bitcoin...This bubble will decimate so many people it's actually very scary.

The price of Ethereum is till above 0.02. I think it is not slaughtered. It is in the consolidation stage. It might rise further.

LTC --> sub $2 before May.

Unlikely here's why:

• Capable of four times as many transactions as Bitcoin in a ten minute period. Frankly if payment processors had adopted Litecoin in the past year current Bitcoin block discussions would be irrelevant (and likely the price of both coins higher). Anyone who has watched these discussions understands the immediate advantage of a network with larger transactional capability.  
• Faster confirmation times. The only people who don't think this is important have never spent a single coin or they have patience that the average person does not possess.
• The faster block time of litecoin reduces the risk of double spending attacks.
• Anti-spam.
• Fast well established network. Current Hashrate is 1,643 GH/s. Since scrypt is memory intensive it is known to be approximately 1000 times slower hardware wise in comparison to SHA256. Fair comparison to the Bitcoin network requires multiplying that hashrate by 1000 (1,643 TH/s). The fact is for most of Litecoins history the hashrate has been relatively high and secure. Those comparing it to the Bitcoin network without considering this 1k factor are either being disingenuous or just ignorant of the facts.
• Continuous development look here at number of releases in past year: https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin/releases
• Upcoming new features currently being developed look here for whats happening in 2016:
  https://www.reddit.com/r/litecoin/comments/3z2ta1/ama_official_litecoin_developers_and_litecoin/
• Longevity. Many coins have temporarily eclipsed litecoin as they were marketed for the purpose of increasing the fiat accounts of a small group and emptying the accounts of new users. Unfortunately this has been detrimental to crypto-space in general.
  
• Great community.
• Fully supported by GoCoin a growing payment processor used by thousands of merchants https://www.gocoin.com/
• Liquidity. You can sell thousands and not crash the market. Maintains value.

By the way, I'd like to be transparent;

I dumped my Ether and am back in LTC. (That is why price crashed a bit few days ago, and I didn't even sell much, LOL. I now at least know how shit the coin's liquidity is xD).

Anyone still in Ether and not in Litecoin is a stupid goat who will get burned. I took my profits, but now it is back to reality and a safe investment, namely Litecoin.

I wish all the fools who think Ether will succeed a lot of luck! You'll need it to coop with your suicidal feelings when Ether dumps on you  :D

Ltc. Eth. Ltc. Eth. Ltc. Eth. Ltc. Eth. Ltc. Eth. Ltc. Eth.

I'm getting dizzy. Make up your mind already.

well from my experience LTC have a faster transaction time then ETH, enough said

Phew, was almost thinking i had made a big mistake buying 100 LTC.

It is a mystake,LTC,like doge and any other coin with a strange name can only increase in value with speculation only,no development nor anything.

There's always speculation in crypto. Some coins just have it more often than others, but every coin gets it's turn. I will hold em. Thanks

TOLD YOU

Great decision you made there.  I must be one of those stupid goats then. ETH will be played all the way up to $50. Im going to remind you of this prediction to.

Your Truly
foolish silly goat.

 ::) You alone had the ability to crash ETH Who you trying to kid son.

The price didn't crash, but it went down DOZENS OF CENTS when I sold my relatively small amount of Ether.

Just says EVERYTHING about the poor liquidity of this shit scam IPO coin. Glad I took my profits from delusional noobs, but now it is back to reality and in safe investment; Litecoin.

Im glad you sold your eth,assuming you arent lying.Hope more people sell,even whales,cuz i wanna buy them cheaper at 2-3$.Thank you.
Also,youre doing a pathetic FUD job since it seems people arent too willing to sell and its getting too expensive ;/ If i didnt know better i would say people dont take any of your opinion serious.

I chose to don't sell since we'll be at at least 0,05BTC/ETH. A 700% isn't enough for me ;) ! Tomorrow, with the Homestead release and the listing in the 4th Chinese exchange in volume, I feel that we'll reach new heights 8).

So you sold your ETH thinking that it wont go anywhere? Im still holding and even buying some more because
there is some serious development behind it.

Like I said in another thread that it will hurt the crypto market real bad if it drops to $1 again. I bought in at a good price and will either sell at $20 or $10 depending which way the market turns. Just to add I never expected this price so soon and do feel it's very overvalued for what it offers but look at the Dow Jones... way overvalued compared to the real economy.

Dumping your eth for ltc was a silly move. Ltc is just an altcoin of bitcoin. It brings nothing new to the table of bitcoin blockchain tech. It wont be worth much more than it is currently. Its been sitting sub 5$ for years.

Ethereum on the otherhand is a new blockchain tech, its not an altcoin fork of bitcoin, its different and better in everyway,it was only a matter of time before something better was developed. Eth is crypto 2.0. Gauging its price is hard but once things start getting integrated etc its going to be big, you would be Naive to think its not. Bitcoin is here to stay as Ethereum is.

Some people never can accept the thoughts of new tech being succesful while being stuck in old tech.

If we go on supply there is 100mill max eth, thats 5x bitcoin, so that gives a current value of eth 0.2 btc Eth is still cheap.
