Title: Worth investing decent amounts in LTC? Post by: Teal Deer on June 29, 2013, 03:12:47 PM I know this doesn't really belong here, so if it doesn't fly well and has to be removed by all means do so.
I'm interested to know what the btctalk crowd has to say seeing as it does involve Gox though. I've currently got several hundred dollars worth of LTC, but I'm considering whether I should put in 1-2k more before it goes over to Gox and goes apeshit. Is this a fairly safe play? At worst I figure it never goes to Gox and I break even or lose a little, but if all goes ahead I should at least double my investment, if not make 5,6,7,8,9,10x in the first few days after IPO. Here's a suggested plan to pump the price up quickly from an apparently reputable poster. https://forum.litecoin.net/index.php/topic,4698.0.html I can afford to lose that amount of money, although obviously I'd prefer not. What's a good play? Title: Re: Worth investing decent amounts in LTC?

If it doesn't go to Gox it's almost certain that the price will drop. Answer: No, it's not safe play. Title: Re: Worth investing decent amounts in LTC?

Especially with people like fontas planning to pump and dump the market heavily. All depends on a bigger fool. Title: Re: Worth investing decent amounts in LTC?

Instead, this will be a coordinated effort to put LTC in the spotlight for good, legitimize the coin, and generate interest in its potential as a serious competitor to BTC and one of the leading tools in digital commerce. -fontasI guess either he's lying or wording it creatively? Title: Re: Worth investing decent amounts in LTC? Post by: culexevilman on June 29, 2013, 03:34:55 PM Just play with what you can afford to lose.

Please... fontas is always looking out for his own pocket. He says such a thing so he can sell before you are prepared to. Title: Re: Worth investing decent amounts in LTC?

Title: Risky, but fun: Buy! Post by: randrace on June 29, 2013, 05:54:44 PM I wish I had bought instead of watching LTC go from .50 to 2.50 before getting in. There is still profit to be made trading between BTC and LTC.

Title: Re: Worth investing decent amounts in LTC? Post by: hathmill on June 29, 2013, 06:29:03 PM No its not safe. Yes it is very risky. Yes you could make a lot of money. My advice: buy some now that you never sell, buy some now that you sell if it goes up, keep some usd at hand so if it drops you can buy more cheaper. Basically what you want to do is too learn how too trade in and out of positions - it is extremely difficult though.
