Im sorry but if you think a twit is official you are wrong. Also can I ask whether anyone in their right mind would want to trade something on a site that lags like hell. When ever a buy up happens theres lag, but not on a sell off. Its the gox guys manipulating the markets and most people cant see that. Its stupid. If anyone wanted to buy ltc they would move their btc from gox to btce... so ergo having gox accept it wont make the biggest of differences.
An official statement would be on their site. Not on a twitter or IRC feed. Those are not the channels of the users, more where they can gain a bit of publicity
I disagree. Litecoin is really only utilized by a small segment of nerds among a slightly less small segment of nerds, though the latter is briskly growing to include average investors as articles about Bitcoin begin to saturate mainstream media. Most everybody who knows anything about Bitcoin, even the casual reader of mainstream publications, is aware of MtGox. BTC-E on the other hand -- what's that? When MtGox makes an official announcement of Litecoin and Namecoin support, it's going to open up the floodgates and expose a whole new segment of people to the chains and, in theory anyway, bring in a TON of new money. People are going to want to diversify their eCurrency holdings beyond just Bitcoin and MtGox is going to enable them to do that by offering viable alternatives.
