Bitcoin Forum

I'm surprised no-one set this up before.

Unmoderated discussion concerning Litecoins price movement and related speculation.

im more for btc/ltc exchange i prefer this better
i hope that now will ltc follow btc in price and follow btc till halving

Currently:
1 ltc = 4.2640752 usd
1 ltc = 0.00911997 BTC

Bitcoin is going up a lot since a few days, and Litecoin even goes up against Bitcoin. Just last week it was 0.007xx BTC. Is this because Ethereum is losing ground? Litecoin has been around longer than any other altcoin and has more or less proven itself to stick around.
I am happily holding a few of them, nothing much, but it would be nice to see them climb up more.

I think LTC had its moment when it reached $40+, now people are more interested in new coins like Ethereum and Lisk.
If they fail, then LTC will make a come back.
Until now every new coin tries and fails to dethrone Bitcoin. So for me 70% of my money will be in Bitcoin, the rest on LTC and Lisk.
I don't understand Ethereum so I won't put a cent in it. At least LTC does not suffer from that.

Litecoin has no future.

I don't see any point in Litecoin anymore.. they had faster blocktimes/conf times & ASIC resistance over Bitcoin, now none of those are selling points over many of the new altcoins.

it seems like the minipump lasted only a short time because currently the price is coming back from the top 0.0091BTC to <0.008BTC with small resistance and the dumping is getting bigger and bigger.

anyways i think litecoin will continue go up (overall not just this mini p&D) with bitcoin price.

and about this

i have to say i don't think those altcoins failing has any effect on litecoin price because it is not moving with them but with bitcoin price.
maybe the recent bitcoin price $15 decline is the cause of the LTC decline too.

well it would be good to see that price but i will be happy with 0.01 or 0.011
i dont mind if it goes higher but lets take it slow for the moment

I hear this quite a bit and agree in part.

However that was the initial reason to have LTC. That is no longer the reason for it to exist.

It's

1. a secure alternative to btc
2. faster transactions - right now just compare a transaction with either. Unless you want to pay huge fees btc transactions can take hours.
3. very liquid - you can dump 20k usd on LTC and not move the market much at all.
4. has a lot of history and recognition now - say BTC the next coin that springs to mind is LTC
5. merge mined with doge and is becoming profitable to mine again now if you have the hardware.


There are things other alts can do arguably better but really are those things really essential right now? If ltc is to bring privacy that would be useful to some people.

Sometimes just have such early mover advantage and the history of a proven track record over years is enough to keep it ahead of the game.

There are more interesting alts. There are asic resistant alts. Both of those you can't argue with. However when exchanges suddenly take their BTC wallets offline or stop withdrawals you notice everyone rushes to LTC or Doge to extract their wealth. This shows clearly that people trust them to be lower risk than the others and these are the main BTC back up currencies.

I would like to see other alts over take LTC because I have more of the "smaller" alts in terms of MC but I think LTC will be seen as the main BTC alternative for quite a while. I would not consider swapping my LTC to BTC until 0.03 and then only in part.

Where BTC is accepted you have a good probability of LTC getting added if they ever add another coin.

But someone forgot about it?)
Not so long ago on the forum almost every topic of Litecoin death...
How to easily manipulate the movement of people.
Positive news, and the price is creeping up.

Covered my Bitcoin short this morning and shorted the shit out of LTC quarterly futures.

They are still trading above spot by about 25 cents.

Headed to $3.5.

ETH/DASH added to BTC-e.  I figure people will be selling LTC trying to get on those as well.

Why would they? ETH has been on many other exchanges. If people wanted to buy those shitcoins, they would have done so a long time ago.

Better theory: BTC-e added those shitcoins to give people an opportunity to dump those scam/ipo/ponzi coins before they completely die out.

My theory is that they are adding these other Altcoins to start trying to gain some volume.

If I was a LTC hodlers... I think that I'd be liquidating for something that at least had a forum (https://archive.litecointalk.org/).

https://i.imgur.com/yV3RR7V.png

ETH has been on BTC-e for less than 24 hours and has 115.4 BTC on the bid compared to LTC 750.51 btc bid.

Look, an idiot Ether bagolder trying to lure people into buying/pumping his shitcoin he bought at $15.

Ether is a big scam. The reason it was added to BTC_e is so they can allow people to dump their shitty/scam Ether coin easier, or because they anticipate poloniex to pull a gox soon (wouldnt surprise me or anyone else in the world for that matter)

If it was about volume, they would have added the shittycoin when it was popular and heavily traded. They add it when it just starts its dying face

Why you not buy ltc ? Lol .

Actually I've never bought, held or put a single order on ETH.  ::)

BTC-e is fairly picky who they add... I'm sure they and the people selling their LTC for ETH disagree with you.

The forum was put into read only mode because someone attacked it. The forum will be operational soon.

sure they choose wisely what coin to add and when i didnt expect them to add anything and ended up with ETH and DARK

heh..thought that too till the crypto whales of btc and ltc came in today and stomped the price down.....

how does it go...power corrupts absolute power corrupts absolutely...


frigging whales play the markets and keep prices down on crypto like Steve Martin jamming his Banjo :(

You have no idea what you are talking about. Nothing goes up in a straight line. People will always take profit along the way. Despite, many people expected a full retrace to support before moon, so this is what we got.

Has nice sideway movement i think it will go up in a week but i could b wrong

Last I checked about a year ago on preev.com, ltc was around $3 so where it's at now isn't too bad.  If it still gets used, more power to it.  Wish doge would creep upward but that's another story.

Not because I have some LTC on my wallet but yeah I do believe this coin isn't dead and could go more than $10 in the next few months. My LTC has been kept ever since when they were still $7 and so once its more than $10 I'll finally profit few bucks.  ;D waited too long.

wow a good traders always believe in profits. i admire you for that mate, ltc isn't dead yet it is still moving and exist, I seen some trade from nova using ltc to espers and some to doge with the price of btc rising up ltc continue riding with it, I'm holding just fe of it coming from my trade to espers and keeping holding it seeing the price still rising, I'll be selling it after hitting $10 bucks. good luck mate.

I think by the end of this year we will see $10 LTC.

litecoin was never dead, it may not be the best altcoin in assistance mostly because of the development state and the fact that it is the copy of bitcoin. but it was never dead.

Litecoin is still alive and popular ant the most important part with LTC is the fact that Chinese are very interested in it and they always invest in LTC and pump it so there is good chance for profit.

Will definitely do well in upcoming months because:

• 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 and active development 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. Look at the chart here indicating volume in the last 24 hours relative to other coins. http://cryptocoincharts.info/coins/graphicalComparison In fact volume has remained high since last June while maintaining a stable price.

LTC is at least immune on all those filthy lies that constantly surrounding BTC. I never heard anything like this about ltc, this is why price is very stable.

Definitly ltc will not die chinese are main players with ltc
so i near future only remain to follow btc in price

litecoin is currently moving downwards and is a little too soon to predict the price movement of the future, it was not like this a couple of days back when the bitcoin price was going up but that has stopped and litecoin followed!

anyways i am expecting a somewhat stable price for the time being and a rise after this stage, but it may take a week or so.

LTC follow BTC this is clear and this small rise is nothing significant, pump will occur without BTC.

Maybe. This last rise was choked off by short-sellers. Too many got the idea that the rise was a Wolong pump: pumping LTC after he sold his.

still this is not the real thing
it will come in i think maybe next month when we are close to halving in BTC that LTC may follow this and use this for something big

I will probably receive a lot of heat for my opinion which is:

LTC is slowly losing ground, my best guess is one more hype till 7$ or so.. then slowly fading to current price again or even lower.

Good luck though!

Hyping then dumping on the sideline, that's how day traders makes some money with LTC. But big holders will definitely not allow the price to go even lower than $3.

7 bucks should be realistic price for one LTC but this doesnt mean it will be seem more that price is struggling to maintain and follow btc price
also some other alts are here to make big mess so remain in next few month to bee seen

Litecoin is as it always was, a good investment. and i don't see why this has to change.

i don't agree with those who say Litecoin is dead and done with nor i agree with those who say Litecoin is the best and list the benefits like faster and more secure transactions.

litecoin is something in the middle, but the thing that makes it a good investment is not any of these. the biggest reason is that Chinese have always been so interested in LTC and pumping it especially when bitcoin is rising.

this is why i am calling the 0.0081-0.0083 range the accumulation phase before the moon!

I like that I can send a small amount with zero fee, and it gets confirmed quickly anyway. Within Litecoin Core it looks exactly the same as Bitcoin Core (obviously since it was just copied), so despite the 100 times lower value, 1 Litecoin (or even much less than that) reaches Medium Priority just as fast. That means a certain amount in dollars reaches Medium Priority 100 times faster, which makes a zero fee transaction possible.
And even if you pay a fee, it is much lower than Bitcoin. Bitcoin now requires a few dollarcents up to half a dollar if you want it to get confirmed fast. In my opinion this is a bad development for Bitcoin users, only caused by miners getting rich.
For Bitcoin, fees have gone up since the Bitcoin value went up. Measured in dollars it went up even faster.

All in all I like Litecoin more than Bitcoin, if only it had the same number of users.
As a thought experiment: imagine Litecoin was the first cryptocurrency, and Bitcoin the second. I don't think Bitcoin would have survived the way Litecoin survived, simply because it's inferior.

what's going on with this pirce drop today ?

Litecoin's marketcap could be 10B in the long run which make the price + $200

50 can be reach this year but for long run its may be possible in few years, perhaps sooner depending of market demand.
This is good considering that it was below 4 dollars at start of this year so every once that was holding then made excellent proffit so in long tern LTC good investment.

Just for basis, I called ltc $30 within 3months 2 days before it started moving form $4. exactly! :) I am seeing $300 by 12 months unless bitcoin can segwit.

It'll be interesting to see how it goes for LTC.

Not many LTC people have sold their old addresses for Bitcoins yet.  Kinda weird... figured they'd be free money grubbing whores.

Let's see how the Segwit experiment will go. If nothing wrong, the price should at least keep the growing pace with Bitcoin.

Now Bitcoin is rising, but Litecoin is stuck in the same price, so Litecoin is devaluating in relation to Bitcoin

So now the rumor is btc getting segwit. The rumor is the majority of mining pools support it. So if this is the case, what good would LTC be? No testing needed if its a done deal.

BTC/LTC would work together to be the premium currencies. With LN (lightning network) it would be so easy and useful to swap in between the 2 currencies. Not to mention the MAST and smart contracts that are currently being developed. Also, don't forget LTC confirms faster and that fees are way cheaper (that alone lol).

LTC is pretty undervalued at the moment. It is my opinion that it is a good time to buy and profit with LTC.

Bitcoin core will simply be in blocking mode from now on imho. Roles flipped. Same result.
Stalemate. Esp when core imho just proposes UASF as a counter imho.

Continued cluster f*** mode. I hope I'm wrong.

LTC down monstrously :(

LTC had has it's time guys . Now it's just a shitcoin with seg activated , nothing more.
Don't forget we are in a huge crypto bubble !!!

the norm on a btc pump, but what normally comes a few days after that  ;)

Only those people with weak hearts panic sell their LTC. This is one of the market moves that make 90% of traders lose money.

LTC will be down for the mean time since BTC and ETH is pumping like crazy. In my personal opinion, stay away for the meantime in LTC or keep buying when it hits 16$. It will come back, trust me..., but do not expect for the next coming months.

Hodling all my LTC, this price is normal considering BTC and ETH are pumped AF. If you want to invest wait for some more correction.

If something is shitcoin like you said on LTC why is he so popular and good, mostly good secondary coin. Fast transaction low fee. If something is shity then price is under 1$, but LTC stand for all that. He might be test subject for bitcoin but he is still here and market cap confirm that.

i'm guessin it'll comeback in the next few days (if not hours) and then some.

the LTC shakeout seems to be taking longer than i expected, to be honest i am starting to get disappointed in it!
although i don't hold anything right now but i am watching the price 24/7 to find the initiation for the rise and get in heads first :)

but i am getting restless...

Nah mate , that's not gonna happen , it's not about months anymore .

What is happening with litecoin,when all the major alt coins are having a very good rally the price of litecoin is not improving at all and i did make a huge investment earlier and i had to sell off at a loss ,i thought the price would rally after the segwit activation but things went downhill after that,hope the price will recover.

All good coins which are worth investing in for long term are moving at a slow pace. Litecoin is amongst them. Now I don't think so it would be left behind.
I am predicting and pretty sure that it would reach 50$ in this year. Having a cap limit of 84 mln will definitely take it to somewhere 1BTC:10LTC approx. in its final round.

litecoin should be worth more than it is right now. I am hoping that more investors will see the potential in litecoin and start buying it for a long term strategy. Rise chikun. I am holding 30 litecoin and wait for its price to go up

What will happen to litecoin if segwit activated on bitcoin.

0.

But it won't.

It good to be optimist. but 1:10 ratio is little overwhelming by me. Maybe 1:30 is good one but still it was around this back in 2013 and early 2014 around 30-40 LTC per BTC. Now is still huge hope that this will be as something similar like in 2013 it would be good for everyone in the end.

Is there any good news about LTC
After SEGWIT there was a drastic price reduction
Or due to the effects of bitcoin being Strong or in the absence of positive Sentiment from the LTC community

though I don't like LTC, I still believe it will break $100 soon

A little birdy told me that Litecoin will bottom soon at the .01-011 range, and will eventually spike up to .03-.05 sats.

Sad I bought this at 0.018. But I didn't cut loss because I am still confident $50 is very possible this year. 

Since 2015 I am familiar with LTC, and currently I have 73 LTC for my stock. I'm sure this coin will not hurt, and I will save while waiting for LTC to rise at its peak

Price correction for every coin is now so dont expect in next days or weeks for this to happen but quite optimistic is to be at that price cuz last time it was 40 when btc was 1200



It should occur in this year to see this high peak all coins except LTC were at top of this so only one that remains is LTC and this should be happening this year.

Although some people say to immediately dispose of the LTC, but I will try to keep. better to be junk than I sell now ;)

my speculation is, LTC will be on the rise on the next wave since more and more people will shift their attention on how LTC being undervalued right now, and hopefully their update might affect it somehow.

People who bought at sub 4 dollars realised their profits from over 30 dollars. It's a big gamble if you want to buy LTC from over 20 dollars now. Personally I wouldn't touch it but it's your choice. There are plenty of other coins you can make better percentage than LTC trading.

i joined the gamblers club having bought 30 LTC so far today ;D

I also bought some litecoin yesterday but is actually pricing down for now. My hope is that litecoin will trade before the end of this year at $50 to $60 then I will sell off my position. For now most of the crypto currencies are at the oversold area and this is the best time to buy.

Good news
https://www.tradingview.com/chart/LTCUSD/33rRuFsF-LTCUSD-Moment-of-decision-Coinbase/

You heard it here first LTC is going up bros I will give you a brief consensus why..
1. Faster block transaction times than bitcoin.
2. They have smart contracts coming to them just like Ethereum has.
3. Bitcoin is a store of value.. and to me that's what it will always be.
4. Decreasing use cases for bitcoin and we come ever quicker to reaching the max coins every year and less incentive for miners because blocks keep growing in difficulty. Where does Litecoin excel that's transactions where bitcoin struggles.
5. It's the silver to bitcoin...
6. It costs literally nothing to send transactions through the network which will spread to more adoption by people businesses etc.
7. Businesses are already dropping Bitcoin accept Litecoin as a payment option and I believe the trend will continue.
8. Etherum is not the future. They eventually are going to move to proof of stake...and you realize that with each thing Vitalik Buterin changes he treads further down riskier and riskier paths.
9. Ether Classic went on a tear.. if you think this isn't going up you're clinically insane. Especially since cryptos are becoming easier to use and more understandable.
10. New money flooding the markets everyday. Coinbase had 40,000 users sign up in one single day on the 22nd-23rd of may.

I have LTC and I bought this when the pricr is cheap but I decided to hold for few months and also few years because I beleive before the end of the year 2017 maybe the price will be 50 dollars soon . Even the price of LTC down its better to buy LTC because this altcoin are promising coin and I think it will increase more because coinbase add wallet to LTC and thats good news . I hope the price will increase more not to dump. I hope  this coon will become more popular to the crypto world so the price become higher .

Litecoin seems need more base ground to move higher.
I think it will take quite a long time compare to early this year - 2017.
I dont think LTC will have a high jump from 28 to 50, it may move to rise from 27-40 until next year,... probably.

Trading is risky and it is just prediction. I dont know either just forecasting it.

I agree. I believe LTC will break $50 very soon.

This is very likely possible scenario and it can be lot sooner then expected i starting again to buy some small amount few coins a week to see what will be. Still think that this coin didnt show true potential and we might be in the point that ltc will be like some predicted back in 2014 to hit even 3 digits so don't be surprised if it comes over 100$.

Have a look at Poloniex, I think it has begun :)

I hope you are right. I believe ltc is a promising altcoin which may become one of the dominant coins in the future but taking into consideration its price fluctuations around $30 I think it is not likely to grow in price that fast. If even segwit didn't make the price go up, I think litecoin is difficult to push in some direction.

Lightning network is still not priced in. We will see soon a monster rise, and LTC will be easily the 3° market cap after BTC and ETH.

This is still only speculation and for some here on forum that i know they mine still LTC, this would be good. IM hopping to see that price price exchange ltc/btc when it was little above 0.03 that is something that im hopping to be again. But i would not mind if price comes to 3 digits, after all LTC deserves this for so long years running.

Well litecoin is similar to bitcoin so it can't do worse than bitcoin but only better. It already has segwit too so the future only looks bright for ltc.

I, too, think the future is looking good for this altcoin. It may be remaining steady now around $30 but as someone else mentioned, segwit has not been factored into the pricing. I will continue to hold my LTC. My estimate is $250 - $900 before 2018.

After BTC do the soft fork, LTC will be dead.

Before you load up on Litecoin take a look at the monthly chart over a few years:

https://bitcoinnewsmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/ltcbtcmonthly.png

Litecoin is known for yearly pump and dumps, and this year's PnD was classic buy the rumour sell the news on SegWit. It is more likely you will see a lower LTC/BTC price before next year's pump. I think the only way this cycle could be broken is if there was real adoption of Litecoin for merchant payments due to lower fees. That would take someone like BitPay to start accepting Litecoin along with Bitcoin, but BitPay has already said they have no plans to accept Litecoin.

that chart looks scary. it could go down 50%, if there are not enough buyers to support it here. But we cannot guess the future price looking at the past.

Litecoin is not acquiring any investors that is why the price is still the same, worst case it can get a big dump this year because of the Rally of Altcoins, especially ETH Based Coins. Litecoin marketing has been very quite for a very long time.

Thinking about selling half of my LTC and investing in WAVES and/or STRAT. Maybe if things LTC makes more noise I will buy some more later.

It was my initial plan and even i swallowed the hype that a lightening network and things like that will change the fate of litecoin but it is still the same,i did not find any significant changes in litecoin after the activation of segwit and the price also keeps on going down,i am holding some coins and i will be holding it for some time but my hopes are not that high.

this is true and it is best if investment at this point is made with extra caution.
but also don't forget that altcoin prices have always been moving based on news because they don't have anything else going on for them to move.
and as far as LTC goes there has always been something to pump it. for example the previous one was because of the LTC halving that led to a big pump.

and the current one is because of SegWit. i say it has more potential for rise because the news is not over yet and it is growing.

You can sell, i wouldn't.

rsk - mast, lightning, atomic swap, CT, Schnorr in development.

Whales have bags full of LTC. And they control the Price.

My Prediction - 100$ + 2017, 200$ + 2018

Can you tell me where did you get that news? Because for me LTC will not become dead even the price of ltc dump I believe they will increase again like before. I hope the price of ltc before the end of this year 0.1 bitcoin . And I hope ltc will become stronger and stronger next few months. LTC will not become dead. They will become more popular to the crypto world.

LTC will be dead, nice:)

well, maybe it will be dead, but I have decided to take the risk here. ;D

If Bitcoin gets segwit and lightning network, I don't see what use Litecoin still has? People will probably dump it for BTC. I own a little bit of LTC though, so I hope not.
Unless someone can tell us what makes LTC not obsolete, what it has that Bitcoin doesn't? (and then it's also the question: will the market agree)

True, most holder and miners are hopping to see price in 0.03 for one LTC no matter now bitcoin price is. That is hope for most holder, for me this coin is sure thing almost always you know when the pump is coming and when to buy/sell them. But to high is to expect that LTC will come to former glory, to many coins have better potential from LTC but this does not mean it will be like this.

I think the whales have been accumulating LTC for a long time, and they are waiting for a right time to pump hard.

Coinbase order book been looking funny today, even before the 'dump'  ::)

http://s12.postimg.org/hy78zr9bh/Capture.png

You think they will be dumping LTC and the price will go down?

Many here scream it's a dead coin. If LTC is dead, then I like dead coins.

Yeah, there's a high possibility that price of litecoin were continues raising. Because as you can the graph of litecoin it was strongly raised up. That's why I hold too some of my coins due to expecting high of all Altcoins in the market.

I think that dump that went from 29+ to sub 22 within few minutes, was actually a margin call on some very big long position. And as the price went down to trigger it, there was not enough buy orders to close the entire position at some reasonable level. so it had to clear orderbook pretty deep.

They are saying cuz its not been developed in long time but this coin has proven that he will survive no matter what come to him. Also this is one of the predicted coin on market you almost always know when will price jump or be dumped, and on top of that there are still miners that mine LTC cuz for them its profitable.

ELECTRIFYING: #Litecoin launch on
bitstamp.net on Monday, 19th June. Get ready to trade #LTC
https://mobile.twitter.com/Bitstamp/status/875394226384769024?s=09

Btc: 2500 $
Eth : 370 $
Zcash: 330 $
Dash : 160 $
Ltc : ?

Target is $ 50. Litecoin is one of the oldest projects.We have to trust him.

$65 by the end of the year if not sooner if we get a few more bubbles.

Next stop on level 50-60$

I would really like to see litecoin reaching $50 as i am holding it for a very long time and i had hopes when all the market had a rally and even litecoin started the movement but then stopped the rally after the activation of segwit and i still hope we might see a good rally.

Next stop is definetly 50$ ...it's doomed to boom ! :))

Good rally might happen if all alts not just LTC follow next expected increase in price for bitcoin. Prediction are it will be over 3000 in this all alts need to follow in price. Reaching 50 in this case will be easy to achieve and it might not be the end.

Guys why do you think LTC supposed to rise?
Bitcoin will soon have all features like Litecoin - it will be fast and transactions will be cheap.
So there will be no need in Litecoin as a speedy cheap alternative of bitcoin.

Any ideas or arguments?

Litecoin will always be here for some reasons. First the will test think that want to be implemented in bitcoin like with segwith. Second most stable coin on market easy to trade with good market supply, on top of that people are still mining it. Very popular in china. What more do you need besides this. He may not be second anymore but still he is good coin.

It seems quite clear to me that LTC very much underperforming with respect to other top coins in the last few days is the result of deliberate actions on the exchanges. Huge sell walls keep popping up all the time, pushing/keeping the price down, which must be expensive for the whales doing it. So what interest do they have in doing this?

I am still looking at litecoin for a hedge against btc dump, i think litecoin has an inflationary issue which is quite on the high side considering the amount of coins

Only 62% vs 78% mined (roughly), that's right, and a factor of 4 in terms of total supply. So this means a bit more inflation right now but I'm not sure it's an issue as such. I would tend to think that any crypto with less than 100 million coins will be considered rare or semi-rare in a couple of years.

For short term (until btc recovers) this should pose no issue.

Litecoin is of my favorite coin and I believe the price of litecoin before end of this year 2017 it will be 100 dollars . So its better to buy litecoin if you have extra bitcoin in your wallet because after few months for sure you will earn a lot of profit. Buy more litecoin and hold it for few years for sure you will become rich .Many people  buy litecoin so the price still increasing and thats good to those have litecoin because they can earn a lot of profit.

https://dwq4do82y8xi7.cloudfront.net/widgetembed/?symbol=KRAKEN%3ALTCXBT&interval=D&symboledit=1&toolbarbg=f1f3f6&hideideas=1&studies=&theme=White&style=1&timezone=exchange (https://dwq4do82y8xi7.cloudfront.net/widgetembed/?symbol=KRAKEN%3ALTCXBT&interval=D&symboledit=1&toolbarbg=f1f3f6&hideideas=1&studies=&theme=White&style=1&timezone=exchange)

This doesn't look too bad, now does it?

Litecoin is good coin so if you have extra money or bitcoin invest that to the litecoin and for sure you will earn a lot of profit after few months of holding . I hope the price of litecoin will be $100 per litecoin before end of 2017. And I think it will happen because many people buying and investing litecoin so the price is continue increading more litecoin that you have more profit will get.

Hey all.  I got litecoin at around 50 dollars or so and a bit more when it went down to the 40 something right as it is now.


Do you guys possibly see litecoin going to 1k or 2k in the future like btc?  The reason i ask this is because well its still pretty cheap now.  Because if you own say 250 litecoin now... and it goes to 2k each... that would be 1/2 a million dollars. 


How much litecoin would you say you need to buy if you want to make 1/2 a million dollars in the future holding it?  As of now, i have some btc, ltc and some waves. 

When Ive learned trading I invest in litecoin until now. So Im thankful I earned already in litecoin and until I believe its price will continously increasing. And if dump it will pump for sure.

Litecoin need falldown around 0.017 - 0.015 BTC in currently, this is good base for people miss buy and want to long term. I believe Litecoin will reach to 3 digits USD in 2017, maybe after September have some change in system about Litecoin, but I can't say more about it

Seeing this above quote i feel i really missed the opportunity 1 LTC = 4.2640 and now 1 LTC =  42$ more than 100% i really could have invest on this but now i afraid to touch i really dont know after this hype of Charly Lee.

In last month around in june i found thread starting charly lee joining LTC after leaving Coinbase in that timeprice was around 20$ -25$ but i dint believe one man cant change anything but now price is 40$+ .

 A lot of people are predicting 100+ LTC. I missed my 28.00 buy in, hoping it drop back into 30's for a  minute and load the boat. Definitely on a lot of people radar now, seeing a lot of talk on social media, even youtube comment sections.

ok i hope so

For short answer no. Litecoin wont go over 1000 only if bitcoin would be around 20-30k other wise wont happen.
Litecoin had initial value 1:15 over bitcoin when he was created if I recall but now many other took his place but still many said that litecoin is dead and this proves that he is very much alive.
Anyway this coin is good in my case for recoving loses made when i lost bet on some sport. I never stop believing in this coin and i will still be stronger support for this coin, but for me realist value for litecoin should be with current price on bitcoin around 120-140 dollars per one coin.

I bought my litecoin for $4 each and I sold 90% of mine for $8 and now I'm simply depressed. I was happy for making doubling my money but now I see what I missed.  :'(

LTC after segwit lock in increased exponentially, hopefully same happens to bitcoin which will eventually rise LTC price too.

good thing you became a succesful singer. i love new rules lol

Yup !!! LTC might become the 3rd big bubble due to huge investment from china 

i also believe the price of litecoin can reach $100 or more, growing very rapidly and have active developer

Does anyone have any information they'd like to share about the announcement on August 1 between Litecoin and the University of Michigan?

It is not Michigan but MIT. This reddit thread has the details:

Here is the website:  http://litecoin.mit.edu/   (currently seems down)

That project is a hoax:

Dont worry usually it happen on first trade you sell at your goals profit but some wait cuz some coin are know to go 5-6 time the price invested so good old advice wait longer next time it can be very profitable but sometimes we as people are very greedy and we want we we think its good for us.

Hey all got a question.  I bought some waves not that long ago.  I dont have that much litecoin though.  However why does it seem like litecoin price is very consistent?  For example when you look at ETH and the other altcoins, there are heavy swings.  Bitcoin also have swings as well but not that much.  It seems like litecoin is the only coin that is just staying flat etc.  Does anyone know the reason for this?  Because when bitcoin and the other altcoins fell a lot and then went back up, litecoin really didn't drop or go up that much.  Such that like it didn't drop 1/2 the price like many coins etc.

   
Litecoin has strong community support with miners, traders and Devs inclusive. It was the only remarkable alternative to Bitcoin until Eth showed up with advanced innovations, so i think its historical fan-base and simple tech keeps it always standing strong! But anything can happen in "cryptoworld"

Exactly, litecoin is now a very calculated coin and marketcap continues to rise. Litecoins are among of  my 5 favorite coins since last year, I think litecoin prices will continue to rise as more support and community,

For me liltecoin is one of the most trustworthy coins on the market no matter now small was his price i dont think this coin would be wasted I just think he might be returning to his place as silver coin, but now he has much more com petition then before many coins are maybe better in technical point of view, but lite for me will still be litecoin.

Do you guys think litecoin will have any price increase?  Nothing seems to be happening with this coin at all.

Yes I'm expecting LTC major growth!

As you can conclude LTC has many advantages over BTC, and peolple will relise this one day, and one day price will go to 0.1 BTC. Probably when this BCH drama ends, at the end of a year or sooner i hope.

My hopes are the same for ltc. Think that this BCC/BCH is just another attempt to get some bitcoin from all that think this will be next "bitcoin". They dont know or they forgot that not single coin made near bitcoin. Lite will use this for price ump as you said, but think after not just this drama but month or two latter near this year end. Then all will realize that they made mistake.

Seems its gonna be a nice speculation with ltc-buy cheap before fork-sell with profit after ;) Im gonna short BTC-LTC right before segwit   8)
