Maybe, but for some reason litecoin price didn't pass 5$ after the drop from $80. Now litecoin price is 3.20$. I'm sure he knows a lot about the blockchain technology but I'm doubtful about Lees predictions.

Litecoin's only utility is being a potential way to "wash" trades into less-traceable Bitcoin transactions.

The only reason they get any attention at all is because they were one of the first alts, hoovered in a bunch of hopeful investors, and subsequently are exploring the basement for value.
Its amusing that their original intent was to "resist" ASIC developments in hashing, but then capitulated. With mis-steps like that, you have to wonder why tweaking the default settings,
such as decreasing confirm times, was really necessary - in fact, it created more problems to solve than it was worth.
