Well? Let's hear it.
With bitcoin, we have a secure, programmable form of money that can be used for global transactions, that cannot be forged, that is fully audit-able, that is actually software that can be built into anything and everything. It allows a secure system of exchanging value between people, and indeed machines, who have never met, that can be trusted, verified and never forged.
Litecoin to a lesser extent is the same...if you are making sidechains say for BTC I can see sidechains being made for LTC for the same reasons and also the additional
reason of speculation (LTC) and/or some folk just don't like BTC from all the FUD in the press etc
but I take your point..again the question is will LTC and/or some other ALTS survive ..even at the current minimal ratios to BTC in the future..
if so not a lot of risk holding some alts...if not ..well ..on the road to tulips...not so good...
just saying human nature I assume? that LTC at least will survive as some kinda very small scale alternative to BTC
but then again what do I know I believed in 2013 BFL and drank the kool aid (refunded 1yr 20 days later by luck) but still ..consider the source

my issue is I've been mining LTC and holding so when and how much do I convert it to BTC now/wait/what?
crypto never a dull moment
