More good news for litecoin

[ozaeri]

ltc is the real undervalued crypto, i see all the posts etc wanting to double there money on 50 sat shitcoins when  right in front of them is a (within 2 months)  300% return hopefully on a solid, re-invigorated ltc, not forgetting the new addition to the chinese exchange on the 19th of this month, buy and hold folks

On what basis is it undervalued? I mean I understand being added on new exchanges will give a speculative boost to its price but I'm not sure how to price ltc considering how little it is used for real transactions.

the fact its still here after all these yrs and sitting at $35 dollars a coin, charlie lee has packed in his job at "Coinbase" to concentrate on ltc full-time, have you checked out the ltc roadmap? its loaded with upto date and trendy upgrades, if even some of them come off you must at least be looking at 100$ dollars plus imo

its a sleeping giant just waiting on its moment, dont miss out

litecoin is now being better than bitcoin as the transaction time is normally lower than bitcoin and most of the time has lower fees. leading litecoin to a better alternative of bitcoin. steady pricing normally means its popularity is not enough though.

But it seems litecoin has slowly increases and always decrease after reach some point, it has been stuck at $30 for weeks. People may just see it as trading object which will sell it for bitcoin, but its price already started to rise again. Let's see how long it could last and how high the price that can be achieved.

Yeah it is not a great coin to trade, the rising is slow and always bounce back to 30$, I don't think it can rise high but I must admit the transaction speed of litecoin is very good, litecoin need more popularity to increase its value, and now I am waiting for the next development, if everything works fine then litecoin can become big coin

It's been confirmed that Charlie Lee has worked his last day at Coinbase and will be working on LTC full time.

https://twitter.com/SatoshiLite/status/873343321296429056

This with the recent hiring of another full time developer will help speed up the integration of the Lightning Network, MAST and confidential transactions. Give Charlie a bit more time to promote LTC as well.

Additionally, litecoin goes live on Bitstamp next week.

Almost all of the exchanged I've looked into shows litecoin going stronger daily and it's now the best time to buy litecoin because of this good news, damn I really missed litrecoin when it was @ $15I expect to rise even further.

I'm a little surprised by some of the comments. It's like some folks are stuck in 2013 and claiming there is nothing new for LTC.

There's more news coming too. Cryptocurrency is a fast moving space, hanging on to five year old opinions might not be the best option.

[ozaeri]

I think the current pump is a great chance to sell. No matter what people say about the development it still seems as a testnet or lite version of bitcoin to me. Best of luck anyhow to all you LTC hodlers.

Nevertheless LTC has only two full time developers. This is not enough for a crypto when you see how many people are working
on other projects.

good job Charlie Lee and Litecoiners

yeah congratulations for them both for make this amazing crypto currency...

[pedrog]

Been holding litecoin for so long, this is such a great payout, already sold some coins, but still holding my bag, let's see how high it goes.

Been advising people to buy a bag of litecoin for years, if someone took my advice should be quite happy right now.

[FrankNoland]

I think I am going to start investing in litecoin, it might be big by the end of this year. I see a lot of developments in it. I think the founder made a very good move by quitting at Coinbase so that he can concentrate on his project 100%.

[BTCwriter]

I like Litecoin. My Chinese friends are going to make it big.

[chineseprancing]

Wow it seems that litecoin price were still fighting to raised up. That's why there's a lot of users were invested in this altcoins. Hoping that this coins were continue raised up.

[Zadicar]

I like Litecoin. My Chinese friends are going to make it big.

Wow lucky for you that you had Chinese Friends. They did actualy say that they would make Litecoin goes big?  I do still have LTC on my wallet which i do still hold off for too long and i can really say that this coin would become big.This time LTC would really make a big leap. Lets stay tuned and watch the progress of LTC later on. This is really a great new anyway.

[aoluain]

After the activation of Segwit on Litecoin I kinda lost interest TBH
But I like this new news about Charlie Lee joining the development.
and the dollar value is still healthy  

I checked out the roadmap which is interesting just a pity they dont
give estimated dates other than 2017 > https://litecoincore.org/

anyway my interest has been piqued again with LTC

[o0‡0o]

It crashed Bitstamp (HTTP ERROR 503) when it went live.

[Sowik]

Damn, the price pumped pretty well in the last days. I wouldnt invest right now.

Of course friends ,, not like a few weeks ago .. many argue that LTC will be destroyed, but look at the reality !! LTC keep trying to rise and improve the price. Good job for LTC
