Title: Is FTC just a clone of LTC? If yes, why not just own LTC? Post by: Capitalism Prevails on September 05, 2013, 03:55:49 AM I heard FTC has checkpoints and i'm not sure what that does. All i know is it runs on scrypt and has 4x more coins than LTC.

Only BTC is a safe coin I think. Title: Re: Is FTC just a clone of LTC? If yes, why not just own LTC?

What do you mean with "safe"? as in safe investment? Title: Re: Is FTC just a clone of LTC? If yes, why not just own LTC?
