BTC or LTC?

LTC
mainly because of hardware that I have
and the price is rising, hope it will be once 1/4 of BTC price

The issue for Litecoin is whether a coin such as ppcoin or another new coin will steal it`s thunder and become the number 2 coin

[Explicit]

My preferences:
1) Physical bitcoins, because they look very nice
2) Litecoins, because they will grow
3) Bitcoins, because that is where it all started.

BUT I wouldn't consider 2, and 3 as an investment. seems too risky to me at the moment.
While I have some it will not be fatal for me if both of them drop considerably.

BUT I'll keep casascius (when I get one) for sentimental reasons

[paxpelus]

LTC for sure!

I started mining litecoins because of the higher profitability. I also don't like the idea of buying hardware that can't be used for anything other than mining bitcoin (ASICs). However, feathercoins seem to be where it's at for mining profitability these days, but I have no idea why.

I say BTC as it is more accepted in the Cryptocurrency world. But i'm not throwing LTC under the bus, it has a purpose.

BTC for profit and LTC for mining because still has low difficulty

This thread has helped me understand the purpose of LTC, thanks guys.

This, precisely.

I am hoping though that someday LTC will be worth maybe 1/4 BTC. (trade a little, hold a little) Maybe more??

LTC and a little FTC.

Who has a spare FTC?

Yeah, Feathercoins are really starting to take off.... 3 days ago the Feathercoin network had 400 MH/s now it is up to nearly 600 MH/s and rising.... I think it is becoming popular because of the large block reward (200 coins) and it is still very early on (difficulty is only 14!)

BTC and LTC are both good, like coke to pepsi. But people still want coke.

Do you guys think any of the other alt-currencies will take off?

I like to think not. But I don't like knock offs. BTC is special because of it's programming.

Considering they were both developed by the same guy I think the programming itself is magnificent on both ends.

LTC has value. LTC is where BTC was at two years ago. The only difference now is that crypto has made it's first step into the world, and the world has noticed (banks and the governments anyways).

I mine LTC and plan on buying with traditional money more LTC and also BTC. I believe these are going to be a very good investment for the long term. They are vastly undervalued right now.

I talked to an investment advisor who is my client (I do some software development for his firm) and he dismissed the whole idea of bitcoin. I was not in an argumentative mood and just smiled. I'm sure when the media will be interested again in the cryptocurrency idea many investors will jump again and the current price of BTC will seem so cheap in comparison.

[RoryPaskin]

I would go with BTC, more price changes and good to make money with.

Yes, but a much higher difficulty level and technically less expansion room than for LTC, even though Bitcoin still has a lot of room left.

[orumae]

LTC for Me!

[Sparda]

LTC is good for mining and than change it into btc.

[TheDogePoliceNG]

Litecoin will never overtake Bitcoin as the largest cryptocurrency. I just don't see it happening due to huge differences in market value.
