Maybe there are fans of LTC here, I'm not here to crap on people's portfolio choices, but the point of this post is to stimulate debate on what the point of LTC is.
For me, being the "Silver Bitcoin" isn't enough, and Charlie Lee thinks so too, as the LTC team are working to make LTC more relevant, including the adding of confidential transactions.
Is this a step in the right direction?
https://cryptomenow.com/litecoin-will-soon-implement-confidential-transactions/To me this is great news, many see this as a way to add privacy to our transactions and while that is fine the real issue is fungibility, if coins are not accepted based on their past then some coins are more valuable than others and as such the coin is not fungible and if that is not the case then we do not have a real currency, so I am pleased the founder of litecoin is pushing for this since it is an important development not only for litecoin but for the market in general.
