Litecoin up 25% today!

[stormcrowe]

SegWit and Lightning Network make great chance for Litecoin to grow up in price by several times.

I doubt it. Those two things will not do much for LTC. It needs adoption like bitcoin has adoption. Maybe in 5 years.. But not this year. People are too interested in their smart contracts and ICO coinz.

That rise was followed by a quick dump. Exactly what I thought was going to happen.

I honestly didnt expect the pump to last long. I do, however, have faith in Litecoin and this up/down means little to me. Im steadily buying and mining away.

Waste of your time and resources.

Don't hold or mine LTC for the chance of it pumping some time in the future. It has not pumped for nearly 2 years and it never will.

Think about the OPPORTUNITY COST of holding a failed cryptocurrency like Litecoin. You could have made a ton more money with Monero, Ethereum or any of the other coins that are actually original and have active speculators.

Nobody is interested in Litecoins and that's why it will never pump. Sold my stash off during this last "rise" (pathetic 25% rise after 1.5 years which didn't even hold for 24 hours; but enough time for me to unload my shitcoins on noobs and bagholders).

BTC just rose another $120. And LTC? $0,02. Lol.

I've taken another look at Litecoin since coinbase started trading them on gdax.com. I think that will send it to a broader market, thus increasing the price.

LTC is poised to take off. There are 1 or 2 coins I have more faith in, but LTC is in the top ten at least for me. I think it is undervalued compared to BTC.

I hope LTC takes off in 2017 because I earn about 1.5Ltc a day right now. I try to save most of that too.

Why it needs the adoption of bitcoin? Wake up dude, about the current block result has told us if the Bitcoin SegWit will be failing. It will not encourage 95% of signalling.

You misunderstood... he's saying that LTC - or any other cryptocurrency for that matter - relies almost chiefly on adoption for it to be successful, for it to be in demand, for it to be valued. He means that if LTC could get the adoption that BTC has, it would almost certainly be able to boost its long-term price.

This means more merchants, more casinos, more public persons accepting and paying in LTC.

LTC is an interesting one. I don't own any, nor am I planning on acquiring any, but it wouldn't surprise me if it just randomly took off one day.

There is no real reason for it to take off. It used to more or less mirror Bitcoin previously, but has lost most of its value in the last 6 months. If it does take off, you can bet your bottom dollar that it will be a pump and dump.

what do you think it will happen in 28 january ?

[arbitrage]

Litcoin is just not interesting at the moment, but this is right moment for investing. It's too late to jump in when walls of BTCs appears on exchanges. I realy don't understand  and why people still talking negative about LTC, when all evidence are in contrary. No premine, no hidden blocks, istamine or anything similar. Hashrate rising, secure network, has nice volume of trade on every excange.

Only price is problem?

No this is not problem at all.

SegWit will be activated in LTC 31 Jan 2017

LTC will need to grab the other demand. The competition is really strict in this day. How it will run and we will see in the last 22 hours.
