This image summarises a lot.
Ether, despite being a Ponzi scheme, IPO scam coin that is not traded on any even sligthly significant exchange, is still underperforming (putting it lighthly) despite its FAKED volume.
Look at this image. It shows the last 24 hour volume:
And this isn't FAKE volume like on the crap exchange, operating from a shed ''Poloniex'' ether ''volume''. This is GENUINE volume.
Litecoin is the true alternative cryptocurrency. Bitcoin and Litecoin matter; the rest does not.
If you want an alternative cryptocurrency to invest in, you know where you should put your money: Litecoin.
Or waste your money on scam/ipo/ponzi scheme coins and get trapped. Your choice.
