LTC on MTGOX

[crazy_rabbit]

So in the BTC-E forum there is a rumor that MTGOX is going to add LTC any one have more info? (Solid info?)

[HorseRider]

So after detain the btc of the users of bitcoinica, Mtgox are already prepared to detain the ltc. Good job. Scamming in the bitcoin world is just not enough for Mtgox, and they just want to put their tentacles into the  alternative cryptocurrencies.

What does that mean?

Once upon a time, There is an exchange named Bitcoinica. Bitcoinica deposit its money on Mtgox. After the database loss in a hack, Mtgox refuse to return the money and the account information to the liquidator of Bitcoinica, which is extremely important for the Bitcoinica user to get their money back and claim their right in the liquidation process. Mtgox sits on other people's money, refuse to return it. That's what does Mtgox did.  


Don't use Mtgox service. Don't trust this scamming exchange.

I know about this story, Bitcoinica still owes me money as well. But this doesn't really have anything to do with confirming the rumor that MtGox will start trading LTC.

It confirms somehow. Open another pair of currency will give more chance for Mtgox to steal from its users. There will be some other careless LTC exchange site use Mtgox as a bank, then, Mtgox can earn money! So I bet that Mtgox will open the LTC trading service.

from what I heard, rumor has it on april 1st saying on IRC they are in progress of supporting LTC. It's quite convincing coz they are about to sell US btc customers to coinlab and need to cling on some other coins. One of the reason LTC has yet to take off is because the majority of trade happens on that shady exchange.

[crazy_rabbit]

I think its rather unbelievable anything would be announced on April 1st.

EDIT: Any one care to really prove this either way?

[romerun]

as that BFL finally shipped

[ehoffman]

Lot of stories

etc.

Doh!

April First.

Isn't that some kind of holiday?

April fools prank or not, the increase in Litecoin price will bring it more exposure. So either way I say hell yes.

Supposedly this is supposed to mean something. Just a bunch of gibberish to me though.

There were so many crazy stories going around on April 1st. Hard to figure out what was going on.

1. LTC on Gox
2. DPR to introduce LTC to SR
3. New cryptocurrency launched Bytecoin
4. BFL ships an ASIC

* MagicalTux has changed the topic to: Mt.Gox 24/7 IRC support channel | don t ask to ask, just ask | offtopic goes to ##mtgox-chat | tickers and trades on #mtgox-RT and #bitcoin-RT | LTC support coming soon
<bittrader> MagicalTux is it ok for me to make a news press release about LTC coming soon?
<MagicalTux> bittrader: I cannot officially announce how "soon" "soon" means
<Plarkplark> @MagicalTux thanks, how great. Or is this April-1 joke?
<Jx8p> well, let's just say my mining riggs are going to be e-xxx-panding
<thrasher`> I hope it isn't an april-1 joke haha
<ypSami> Plarkplark: MagicalTux is in Japan. The Japanese have no sense of humor.
<bittrader> thats ok I can just write that Mt.Gox has not provided an exact time frame for release
<Jx8p> come on the 5th. Payday1
<Jx8p> *!
<MagicalTux> bittrader: you can say that MtGox is exploring the possibility of adding LTC to its trading engine
<MagicalTux> basically the only thing that remains is to write the communication with the Litecoin network
<bittrader> ok
<MagicalTux> that's a large part
<MagicalTux> but thanks to our platform, adding a new currency to the trading engine is as easy as clicking a few options in an admin interface

I tried sub'ing in different alt-coin 3 letter monikers, but NMC and LTC are the only ones that appear to work. Sorry NVC/TRC/PPC/IXC

[crazy_rabbit]

well that is pretty good indication. This is exciting. I'm banging my head for selling my googles of LTC back in the day. GOOD LORD HOW STUPID. That said, it didn't seem stupid at the time.
