Title: Things Litecoin Needs Post by: hate_the_face on June 11, 2013, 03:12:00 PM - a website similar to bitinstant that allows for cash deposits to be converted directly into litecoins and sent to an address
- increased traffic to Atlantis Marketplace I look at it like a political election, bitcoin is the clear majority right now but litecoin is the closest second with like 15 independents all in a clusterfuck below that. If some things happen to make it equal to bitcoin in functionality, it is really the one coin that could skyrocket in value considering there's actually places to spend it on. Am I the only one who is seeing this? Faster confirm times are such a godsend when transferring funds around. I got spoiled to be honest, had to move a small amount of btc today and might as well have watched a NASCAR race because I swear it took longer than usual. Just look at it from a purely objective standpoint, and you'll see there is no difference between Bitcoin and Litecoin, just what people perceive their value to be.

Everyone working on litecoin projects put them on hold to make their own shitcoin, why do you think the value has dropped so much in the past few months. Maybe now that the shitcoin gold rush is (almost?) over people will get back to those.

cash is key, nobody wants to tie a bank account or anything to be able to buy litecoins, so if you want to buy litecoins with cash you have to buy bitcoins first. If you cut out the middleman (bitcoin --> litecoin), Litecoin will actually be able to break out of its current ratio to bitcoins Title: Re: Things Litecoin Needs Post by: flound1129 on June 11, 2013, 11:58:00 PM I figured someone in Russia or one of those Bond villain countries would have been on the ball by now. cash is key, nobody wants to tie a bank account or anything to be able to buy litecoins, so if you want to buy litecoins with cash you have to buy bitcoins first.

People want to buy LTC with cash, but nobody wants to use a bank account? Where can we buy LTC with cash? A dark alley somewhere? Title: Re: Things Litecoin Needs Post by: FiiNALiZE on June 12, 2013, 12:00:10 AM I think he means there should be something like Bitinstant for LTC.
I don't think people like having to buy BTC with cash, then convert it to LTC. Title: Re: Things Litecoin Needs Post by: kodo on June 12, 2013, 12:21:57 AM I agree with this, pretty much the more vendors that accept Litecoin the better
