Title: Why do YOU support Litecoin? Why is it so popular? Post by: Rockie1234 on April 25, 2017, 03:32:50 PM Nothing against litecoin myself, just was very surprised to see such a significant increase on its price recently.
What features does it have which make it worth buying? As far as I know, all it has is Segwit, which is something that changes some sort of file size in the blockchain? My point is, since it is a technical clone of Bitcoin, what are your reasons for supporting it? Title: Re: Why do YOU support Litecoin? Why is it so popular?

since it is a technical clone of Bitcoin Not for long on Wednesday it will get segwit and be vastly superior to bitcoin. Title: Re: Why do YOU support Litecoin? Why is it so popular? Post by: shyliar on April 25, 2017, 03:40:50 PM Here's some of the reasons I like Litecoin:

Post by: Oiketerion on April 25, 2017, 03:48:17 PM I support Litecoin because it is one of the few altcoins, which, beside Bitcoin, as this healthy simplicity. Fancy features and all make me stay away from numerous altcoins, but not from Litecoin.

You should edit your post, Litecoin isn't a clone of Bitcoin (even if no one still pointed), it is the first Altcoin, it means, an alternative to Bitcoin. One of the first Bitcoin clones is IXcoin : https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/ixcoin There are a lot of differences between both, and the most important one is the algorithm, Bitcoin's algo is SHA256, Litecoin's algo is Scrypt. Needless to talk about the other differences. Title: Re: Why do YOU support Litecoin? Why is it so popular? Post by: Ayers on April 25, 2017, 04:36:14 PM i don't support litecoin, because litecoin have nothing really to offer to the market, maybe it's a good coin to help bitcoin getting more recognized, but without a market that accept it, it's not different than other shit coin to me, but i admit that litecoin have some traction and could help bitcoin to grow or to follow the right way, like with segwit, litecoin is a bit like bitcoin, being the first in crypto give always the upper hand and make like your coin is worth more, just nostalgia for many

Segwit activation is huge, it will give us the chance to see how well segwit work and that is invaluable information, besides Litecoin is one of the oldest coins so people support it because they believe in it, and finally it seems there is less politics like in bitcoin and this allows for faster development.What features does it have which make it worth buying?
