When Litecoin is $1000, Bitcoin will be $100,000 and the cheap toilet paper from Walmart will be made by the Federal Reserve.

I'd be laughed at it now but I predict in all honesty that ltc will overtake btc (btw I am no fan of ltc), however neither will ever see $1000.

Ltc is dead/dying atm and btc is skyrocketing albeit in a bubble.

A long time away from this  :(  I say this, and I support LTC. People hear about bitcoin first, not litecoin

There is no chance for ltc hitting $1000 within 12 months.

I am a BTC/LTC supporter, but man what are you smoking, it would be funny to tell that BTC will hit $1000 this year.... but LTC come on...


BTW I didn't know that there is so many Litecoin haters around, it has a been a while since last time I visited this subforum, but i have to say that there is so many new scam coins around here.... I do understand the hate around Alts because I am starting to feel the same, but litecoin and namecoin are one of the oldest and most useful and powerful alts that I would support/hold and accept as a kind of payment.

LTC was worth pennies not long ago, it had a really small network which now surpassed what bitcoin was at 2 years ago, there is always new businesses developing around it, a big trading volume, a great Dev team that also develop Bitcoin at the same time, so it is going to mainstream but lets be realistic, If LTC hits $10 in one year i would be more than happy

Maybe if someone got control of 90% of all LTC in existence right now and destroyed them....

Possible but almost impossible. Impossible for Litecoin to even hit $100 :)

If Bitcoin makes it big, there will also be a place for altcoins. In the near future, Litecoin could benefit from increased inflow of funds (e.g., a MtGox event) that could move the ratio temporarily to 0.1 BTC/LTC. People will jump on the wagon once a move starts. Its all about timing and patience.


Title: if QE causes USD to plummet...does LTC replace USD compared to utilizing btc?
Post by: frankenmint on October 29, 2013, 05:59:28 AM
little people and the huge egos they seem to have.  Stop being ignorant about it...its possible....hell its totally possible with QE going on to where the 100 dollar bill is worth 10 dollars in the next decade due to ridiculous inflation.

Those that will be widely adopted by merchants and retailers will survive. Those that will remain as a speculation thing will be replaced by their better competitors.

The survival of Bitcoin and Litecoin has nothing to do with their exchange rates. Their survival completely depends on their utilities, and their utilities ultimately determine their exchange rates.

Too many people have views that are clouded by greed, and they are ignorant of the fact that Bitcoin and Litecoin are payment systems (which happen to have their own currencies). The more people that lose sight of this fact, the more likely it is that Bitcoin (and Litecoin) will fail.

I think utility and speculation are intertwined and both necessary for the coins' survival.

US dollar hyperinflation.  1 LTC = $1,000 but that only buys you a loaf of bread.

Agreed, but viable speculation only happens with something that has long term potential and that's where utility comes in.

Bitcoin and Litecoin have essentially the same utility. Its mainly a 'first mover' aspect for Bitcoin to be ahead. People like choice, also if it doesnt differ that much (look at cars). If LTC can get some basic application, it will thrive if Bitcoin wins big.

Higher risk, higher reward.

If Litecoin hit $1000, means bitcoin have been replace by Litecoin due to something big had happened... So Bitcoin is dead...

It would be fun but it would be hard to say that LTC will be more expensive than BTC because of it's market cap of 4x more in number. So. By then btc would be worth $4000 ea.
