The LTC community should focus on litecoin being adopted by Bitpay and not MtGox - that is why it will hit bottom soon!
Bitpay (like Bitstamp I believe) is strongly against Litecoin. Not gonna happen unless LTC explodes first. Yes I am aware, just wanted to point out the kind of adoption LTC users should push for and not the speculative kind only. I guess they will get what they deserve in the end..

The history of money suggests there will only be one currency and everything else will be worthless. Stores only take one currency.
Wrong on so many levels. Show us one example in the entire monetary history of the world where there was only one currency and everything else was worthless. It won't be worthless - it will be in the 0.00x range like almost all other alt coins. So sell now...

Having a percentage pegged account is silly. Just have two options, a EUR account or a BTC account. If the customer wants to have a mid-level exposure to the bitcoin price fluctuations, they can just have one account in BTC and one account in EUR, and put 50% of their money in each.
Simple and direct!

Hopefully color coin can provide a distributed digital asset proof-of-ownership for those concerned about the centralization of websites that are currently providing this functionality.
Probably Mastercoin will be there first!

Nice to see some steps in the right direction with Open Sourcing and with the name change.
However
Despite that though I still have an instinctive aversion to the concept of chains of trust and passing around debts. Bitcoins are something I get, it is sound money. Ripple is something that I just don't get the idea is confusing and even if the ripple devs have good intentions, I can't get past feeling that the idea can be used for nefarious aims.
https://ripplecharts.com/marketsThere's been no progress since May... You got Bitstamp and nothing else... Even with the BIG BOOM of open sourcing only $38,000 USD/XRP traded. Their big US Gateway SnapSwap is doing $2,315 of business/day. If you bought XRP in May... you are STILL DOWN 50% at 9000/BTC... There's no liquidity anyway to make any real money... Plus 98,000,000,000 XRP waiting to be dumped on you, baby. Compared to mcxNOW... Ripple is a Ghost Town = 100% hype... Do people not realize that every single business associated with Ripple is IN THE RED. What if the deal with ZipZap is real? How much better would it make this?

Just broke .000002 I see +2 decimals soon! Maybe when the block reward is 1? I am not a miner so I have no idea on this, but I think that the latest news from friedcat that asics are not feasible for scrypt mining will boost cpu + asic clones! ASICs are SHA 256 anyway, so it's not like it's anything new. Source? I mean that it is not a good idea to go for scrypt ASICs! That is what ASICMINER said: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=99497.msg3222593#msg3222593

Dinner is served. Where is my dinner? I'm hungry as well You are just anticipating my thread about you Bro, you're a clown. Nobody gives you a second thought, that's why I blew you off on Skype. You proved that when you made an ass of yourself trying to childishly belittle Sal, a well respected member of the Ripple community. He proved that he has class, while you're just a random avatar, flailing your arms for attention like a little school girl. Forum shit talk is one thing, but I don't do business with the morally corrupt. You didn't get a plate of crow because you're irrelevant. Tradefortress at least put up a good fight, even though in the end, we still ran his ass over and exposed his lies. He's got to be hungry. You're nobody, so go talk to him and maybe he'll let you eat the crumbs off his plate. But first you might want to take your bi-polar medicine and decide if you're a Ripple supporter or hater. On Ripple, you're waving the support flag like it's been that way all along. Here you're still trying to fit in with the primates. Get real and I'm still waiting on that address, Mrs. "I bought big at 45k". Zero credibility. Does that feel good to get off your chest? Too bad you offered crow in another thread and I thought it to be so lame that I ignored you until you spread your lame joke on every Ripple thread in existence. What are you talking about? I never followed you up on skype. Sal is an idiot, he deserved what he got. He is a well trained pet now. You are next. Get a life - is it so bad? Why people get so much personal for/against a god damn coin? Pfff... Just trade - no room for emotions there!

who actually likes or gives a fuck about ripple? no one but those involved with it.
/thread
That is mostly the case for any coin hmm, i don't see many of these "wah, wah wah, poor <insertcoinhere> is getting hated on by <insertuser>" threads. its always the ripple bandwagon on these crusades. if your coin was so great you wouldn't be worried about TF. /thread/thread/thread..../thread Just check what people @ Zerohedge say about Bitcoin. I think you are pretending to misunderstand something here - it is the haters who start the threads lol Early adopters + miners fearing they will be obsolete. But hey, I don't really care for ANY coin, I am a trader and when I see promise for profit I am in. I trade xrp, anc, msc, btc whatever. Sometimes I see something here as a midterm investment and rarely (when it is dirty cheap) more long term...

Recently I had to pay for VPN (the one advertised here) and chose Ripple - wow that was fast!
Ripple is ridiculously underpriced, it is way more efficient and effective than any blockchain coin.
I own huge amounts of ANC and decent amounts of BTC (disclaimer).

Danny is now in Amsterdam ready for the bitcoin conference.
TAT any update on the transfer progress? I would love to have my shares back BEFORE Danny's speech!

As I've always said, LTC (and the other scrypt coins) need a REAL MARKET to have any long term value. That means real services and other things to do with them other than dump them for BTC. And no, two shitty gambling sites doesn't count.
Not sure which sites you are talking about, but https://playt.in is certainly not a shitty site It can be used without LTC though... EDIT: Market in itself is not the answer IMHO flound1129 - you need an alt with really unique features that make it a real alternative to BTC (like Mastercoin, maybe ANC and yes Ripple) PLUS a specialized marketplace that BTC CANNOT reach. Another good example (regarding gambling) would be this coin: http://qixcoin.com/

Actually that's good news for litecoin. A litecoin asic released at this time would alienate the GPU miner userbase. It would also damage one of litecoin's key differentiating factors. It's better for litecoin if asics come later on, when the currency is more established. Are you serious? GPU mining is borderline already for litecoin - how are miners suppose to continue mining ltc without a huge spike in price? The whole point of this thread was that not only there are no signs for price spike but probably we are going to a steep decline! Add to this the skyrocketed mining difficulty and you get a nightmare scenario not only for litecoin holders but for all scrypt coins owners! And I hold large amounts of scrypt based ANC, so I could be biased against the OP but truth is hard to ignore anymore...

I believe LTC has bright future, MT-Gox will finally add it, doesn't matter when. It is sure that they will. Also, the developer of LTC left Google. He will help LTC in every way, and I'm sure he is very competent. LTC will never go down. Even if it goes it will be for a while. Then, it will climb up again. Remember the days BTC fell to 2$? Everyone can have a bad day..or two
MtGox is irrelevant - it will be only good for speculators and not people seriously investing in LTC long term. Karpeles will rape it good. You do know that LTC developer is now in Coinbase full time? I don't think he will be able to seriously contribute anymore - I doubt he is willing to deal with it anyway. LTC is doomed! -But it is second!! Seriously??? SECOND??? THEN WHY NOT BE WITH No1? -It's fast! Good for merchants! RIPPLE. Hello? -It is scrypt. So what? 99% are. And probably scrypt mining will be dead soon, oh the irony. Trolls screaming at BTC-e that ASICs will kill BTC lol
