LTC up to $1

[sublime5447]

Didnt read all of the responses i just wanted to add that I know how to make litecoins go to a dollar. I would love to help do it. The way to get lite coin to a dollars is to put it in the hands of as many bitcoin cleint holders as possiable. As soon as it gets some value behind it sites will start taking it. I am pretty sure that I can sell litecoins to the people who buy from me. I am going to give it a try. as soon as I get some.

Is it likely that initially litecoin will have a bubble similar to Bitcoin, which will be mostly speculation.

I know btc can be easily traded for LTC and vice versa on btc-e, but is it possible that a stand alone wallet could do a conversion on the fly between btc-ltc allowing the user to chose dynamically whats in there wallet like having only LTC but being able to pay for btc products/services saving the merchants from having to price in both BTC/LTC.

LTC is going to certainly need to raise in value in order to remain profitable to miners.  It'd be stupid to have a quad GPU rig mining $.80 worth of LTC.

Invest in SatoshiDice: https://www.litecoinglobal.com/security/S.DICE-PT

Then when they pay dividends every month, they get converted from BTC to LTC, thus lifting up LTC further.

As long as there are enough long-term investors, and SDICE does well, everyone stays happy.

if bitpay integrated it, then suddenly tons of sites including Wordpress would be accepting LTC.

If anyone created a payment processor that accepts LTC in exchange for fiat into a merchant's bank account Litecoin would be no longer "just another alt coin".

I do this. You can sell me litecoin for paypal and get cash. I started a litcoin friends page of facebook. If you like our page and send your wallet address I will give you a free litecoin. Because of the price volatility of bitcoin i do not feel safe holding large quantities of btc. I am going to look into litcoin as a method for my customers to get btc. If the prices is more stable or rising at a more believable rate I think I am going to hold litecoins and let my customers buy them and convert to btc. Just a thought right now but i am going to look into it more. I am not buying any btc at these prices I believe it is over valued and due for a major correction. I am not sure what is going to happen to ltc when btc tanks but will be watching.

Payment processor = Merchant signs up with you, customers go to their site and pay with LTC, you convert the LTC to fiat and deposit into merchant's bank account.

I agree that merchant LTC acceptance is important because then LTC becomes a CURRENCY, not a HEDGE.

However, for the LTC/$fiat$ exchange rate to rise, you need a reliable LTC/$fiat$ EXCHANGE!

BTC-E buys/sells, but you have to go thru some insane process that looks like it involves losing around 20% in transaction fees, if not losing you cash outright...

LOL while BTC is up to only $3.08 http://www.google.com/finance?q=NYSE%3ABTC&ei=4RsYUYDuBceXwQPYLQ

Though they're both doing very well year to date.

It's not a matter of if, but when...sooner or later.

I say sometime in the near future.

on the cusp of $1...thought a bump would be appropriate.
