Why LTC boom?

[tokeweed]

Why not bitcoin?

Because it's the safe haven coin.  Too much politics going on in Bitcoin land right now.  Some people are moving to LTC.  Good luck with your Gavincoin.

Because Charlie Lee Chinese - Chinese people viewed as very industrious, trust worthy, not steal your money.  Litecoin is silver the safe haven of Bitcoin.

FYP.

Why not bitcoin?

Investors are beginning to understand the reality that altcoins are here to stay. Moving forward, as we see hiccups (1MB block debate) in BTC, you'll see people moving into altcoins as a hedge/safe haven. This is what I call the "price disconnect slowly closing."

Litecoin is the obvious hedge at the moment because it has the best/most consistent volume.

"Perhaps Greece has started thinking of adopting LTC as their currency and since they can't buy all the BTC before driving it up, they are going ahead and buying all the LTC "

PS - Just a speculation.

Lol.  That would be funny.  "Yes yes we cannot buy the bitcoin anymore!  Let's get the much cheaper, faster one!"

Hey, guys, do you really believe in pump?

It's just trap for newcomers, all this posts about litecoin halving, bitcoin dead-forked, Greece default. Everybody try to buy before 5 July, when Greece situation will clarify. But smart people shouldn't buy ltc at such unreal price.

What will happen at 5-th July is trap closing. All newbies which purchased expensive ltc will be fucked by manilulators. Sad but true.

Price of ltc after 5-th July ~ $1.7. Just open bitcoinwisdom and look at fake pumps. Pure hamsters...

There are short term investments and ability to make profit:  Litecoin is a good example of that, but daytrading and pump and dumps is a vicious game where you will be burned.

The people right now who are fist pumping about LTC - well guess what?  They were fist pumping about LTC during the last 12 pump and dumps I saw it go through.  And yes - they can be vicious like Pit Bulls and try to bite you on the ankle or arm if you try to disrupt the game of musical chairs.


Litecoin is not a long term investment.  Long term prospects do not factor in whether something is currently popular among bots and daytraders or if it will be pumped again.  More important factors is user adoption and Litecoin, with virtually no development, is not going to ever produce some killer app or product that will produce said adoption.

Occasional updates, to fix minor problems or to add a few whistles, is virtually no development in the tech industry.  Even here in crypto - just compare Litecoin with Bitshares, Litecoin has barely changed from years ago since Charlie Lee left it to pursue better gigs.

satoshi also left Bitcoin. Charlie Lee only said that LTC does not need gimmicks to succeed and he is right.

1) sorry can't compare a fairly released coin like litecoin with a ipo scam like bitshares
2) Charlie lee is still around the litecoin scene , his last post was 10 days ago in /r/litecoin http://www.reddit.com/user/coblee
