Litecoin developer offers a $10k bet to a LTC troll :)

[spartak_t]

I like Litecoin for several reasons and that is why I will always want the best to the people involved in its development. There are a lot of users who are trolling it though! A thread called "Litecoin: 3 outcomes" (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1582765.0) was started by dballing (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=342783), were several users continued to bash the coin. Looks like one of the LTC developers had enough and offered a $10k bet to a guy who said that Litecoin will never be listed on GDAX or (note this) Coinbase...

The reason for starting this thread is because:

1. I don't want this to sink into oblivion.
2. I think that people should respect Litecoin.

Comparing ETH (which basically screwed up with hundreds of millions $ funds in a few months) with LTC is a nonsense. Many of you are lookling only at the current prices (please don't give me the tech yada yada) and only few of you are asking how is that happened. You are forgetting that this is not all about profits and technology, this is for a greater good and there must be a mutual respect between everybody! Charlie Lee is one of the pioneers in cryptoworld and it must be respected by everyone, because he did nothing wrong. He rightfully condemned the ETH's fork and he also said that it will never happen with LTC. Do you know what that means, you ignorant ETH shills? He is fighting for DECENTRALISATION!

So, what really happened? A guy who most likely was an LTC supporter (his nickname is bitcoinlitcoinbtcltc: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=163913) said:

Ltc is useless and will never ba added to gdax or coinbase. Never.

Then a Litecoin developer (seems like he is indeed part of the LTC dev team, you can check his history) losh11 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=135929) answered:

I'd be willing to send you $10K in BTC if Litecoin isn't added to GDAX in the next 60 days.
Deal?

And I guess we have a deal:

I'd be willing to send you $10K in BTC if Litecoin isn't added to GDAX in the next 60 days.
Deal?

Deal. Won't be added in even 120 days 

Let us see the outcome...

Satoshi Lite is a director(or something big at GDAX)

That one reason is enough, im sure it will get listed there

Lee is director of engineering at GDAX, but I don't think it can be considered as one of the main reasons for Litecoin to be listed there. I am 100% sure that he is not taking advantage with his position on the exchange!

This would have been an interesting bet if they had escrowed that amount (the old but gold: put your money where your mouth is): my guess is that litecoin will be listed at GDAX but the bet won't be honoured.

Obviously, Coblee did not push it through since ETH was listed first. People have asked him to list LTC for years now on Coinbase. I think now that they mess with alt coins we will see LTC and likely others added. I doubt LTC will die, but it will remain stable/boring for years to come.

I think its safe to say that they are still in process of negotiations, so it is still unclear if the bet will be honoured.

You are probably right, but if we have few more failures like the DAO, then people could say "We had enough of this", and turn back on "stable" currencies. I believe LTC is one of them.

I am willing to escrow the bet if needed.

Can you please send me the $10k in BTC in advance? Why wait for confirmation when I already gave you the prophecy?

The personification of Crypto right there !
Sad but so fucking true !

I have heard soooo many little moron dipshit profiteers bitch about coins being "boring"
It's a CURRENCY you dumb ass dipshits not a fucking Pyramid Scheme with Gimmicks for attention  

When you open your wallet and a dollar bill is peeking out at you..
Do you all here the Windows 98 start up sound trumpeting away ?
Do you see bright police lights flashing ?

You brain dead kidiot profiteer brats are sadly in charge of Crypto.
And all you cancerous to crypto twats want is "Jingling Daddy's Key's" Coin !

Look LOOK looook look at it Blink & Flash !!!11ONE
What is it ? tell me.. tell me !!!!11!
Why it's a smart contract ICO DAPPS Ponzi Fuel token Pyramid "Coin" worth $20 bucks each !

Oh HOLY shit bro like... TAKE MY MONEY NOW !!!!!!!!!!

Then an hour later.. whaaah waaaaahh baby needs nap !
Then gets bored of "Toy" and dumps for new shiny toy !

"Tardlet Tokens" are funny LOL

I have a million times more respect for LTC than 99.99% of all the other scam coins.
Never cave in to demands from snot nose brats looking for profits.
They are useless morons who should not even be here and contribute NOTHING to legit projects.
The only people who want profiteers loitering around are scam coin makers.
Legit teams want these scummy bastards out of here !

And how can i have a shred of respect for an exchange that would add Ethereum and NOT Litecoin ?
What a fucking joke !

PS:
I like the bet and can't wait to see if the guys pay up LOL

[dballing]

I'm willing to bet $20 that the troll won't even put up a $1,000 into an escrow account against Losh...
AND that my friends is how our derivative banking system works and why we need Bitcoin for when this all falls apart.

[bbc.reporter]

Maybe we should add more bets in this thread. It would be fun to watch what will happen. Spartak maybe we should have a deadline until when betting and duration is allowed. I am willing to bet 100k satoshis depending on the duration. If within 2 months I do not think it will be listed within that time. If up to the end of the year it might be listed before or by December 31.

Well, the bet wasn't symmetric in the first place, was it? There is no "if it's added…"-clause, as far as I can see.

Yes, but a bet on a bet on a bet keeps things interesting!

I bet that your bet will lose because the troll will put up $10k vs the bet of Losh. Yes and this is how derivative banking system will fall like dominoes when the system fails at the source. Keep in mind I said "when" and not "if".

if anyone spent 10 min reading bitcoinlitcoinbtcltc posting history, they wouldn't bother feeding that troll......................just saying

Except it is not used for anything besides speculation. The only point to alt coins is trading/speculating and that is it.

i use litecoin as my core crypto and it can be used pretty much anywhere btc can be used, and is more reliable in my experience then btc hence why i converted to it.

Nuff said.
