Bitcoin Vs Litecoin

[cellard]

Litecoin doesn't have anything new other than recent activation of segwit in litecoin, however that might not pump LTC anymore. LTC price was already pumped quite hard recently and right now it is correcting. Best investment for now could be ETC which is quite similar to ETH.

The only chance LTC has to pump anytime soon is if in august there is a big mess with bitcoin forking into 2 coins and whatnot. LTC has the infraestructure and tech to be a safe haven in case of bitcoin problems.

I want to find a big ROI coin, LTC is harder to pump now, its too high.

Litecoin has significant increases after segwit implemented from $3-$4 to $30 but it seems stuck right there, can't break the $30 barrier. If you invest 1 btc on litecoin when it was $4, than you could get many profits and better to invest on cheaper coin if you don't have bigger budget to invest. Bitcoin has higher price and pretty hard to buy 1BTC and expected so much in the near future.
For now I prefer bitcoin as it will gain more value in the future than litecoin obviously.

I also think that this is very visible and does not require even proof. Any crypto currency will not be able to achieve this potential, which has Bitcoin. The future is for Bitcoin If you want to become richer.

The percentage increase in the Litecoin exchange rates during the last 12 months is lower than that of Bitcoin. It is one of the few crypto-currencies, whose performance is even worse than the BTC. The implementation of SegWit was a major boost, but something went wrong with the currency after that. I don't understand. The basics are still strong. But the demand is not there.

Both. Some Bitcoin here, some Litecoin there. You won't be sorry if you had both.

Yes, bitcoins is good for invest in it long time because of it will be expensive in the future and it is good instrument of Investment to put the funds in bitcoins, and litecoin is good for invest short term, litecoin is good for trading altcoins getting profit from fluctuation of litecoin's price daily, weekly and monthly and litecoin is not scam coin.

I expected people to compare BTC to something going mainstream like either ether or monero but LTC already is late in the crowd, let alone fast rising in 2017 but if it just maintained itself behind BTC, ETH and even DOGE that would be a relatively good success, Compared to ETH, LTC offers nothing much more than BTC is already providing.

It may be too early to write off Litecoin. It is much older than the other alts such as Ether and Dash (not sure about Doge). They have successfully implemented the SegWit, and the confirmations are many times faster than that with Bitcoin. And even now, a lot of market places are accepting Litecoin, although the adoption seems to have got stunted.

Bitcoin is very much in front of LTC in anyway, for years, LTC has been the second currency thinking about competing and taking the place of BTC but it didn't successfully do it. Even now the competitors of BTC are mainly ETH and Monero.

ETH really replaced LTC on it's leading position among altcoins. I have noticed that the price of LTC is nonstop following the bitcoin price when it's growing. So, by my opinion investing in LTC will suit more to people who don't have a lot of finances to invest in BTC.

I bought 7 btl. When i bought it its price was about 0.0191 btc
And now its price has fallen to only 0.0109. Which reason makes it so dramatic while segwit succeed.
How long will it take to get back to the price: D

I've also noticed basically the same

That's the reason why investing in Litecoin right now may be preferable than buying Bitcoin because if Bitcoin doesn't get split after August 1st, its price will surge, and Litecoin will obviously surge with it too. But if Bitcoin suffers a chain split, its price may crash dramatically, and it is a big if whether Litecoin will go down as well. Overall, Litecoin is more prone to severe price changes since its market seems to be by far smaller than that of Bitcoin, but it allows to buy the coins pretty cheap if you are willing to wait

[freebutcaged]

Sleeping giant is more like what LTC is now, just give it some time, people are in accumulation phase right now so price will not increase too much

For a while and when the masses start seeing it's true nature which is the silver to the gold of Bitcoin, I'm sure many will start hoarding in bulk.

There is no denying and there is no doubt about the superiority of Bitcoin and that will always remain the original cryptocurrency but LTC is also

Legit and promising, so I'd first choose Bitcoin and then LTC even mining it is much easier than Bitcoin.

[malikusama]

Bitcoin is still the best to invest in than all of the cryptocurrencies because its price is somehow reliable than any other cryptocurrency. Litecoin price is only increased this much during the past two months of this year. It is expected that bitcoin prices will be keep on increasing this year and will cross $5000 because the number of users and popularity is increasing day by day, while in case of litecoin many other currencies like ETH has already replaced the position of litecoin in the top cryptocurrencies.

[Himanshu111]

I think Bitcoin is the most stable cryptocurrency out there are its a better investment option than any other altcoin available out there. Bitcoin has shown a better growth than most of the altcoins including litecoin so it's better to go for Bitcoin than litecoin.

This is quite worrying. If something bad happens to bitcoin (i.e a split), then it should negatively affect all the crypto-currencies, right? So Ether, Ripple, LTC, Doge.etc may go down against fiat. Or do you think that Ethereum prices will surge, due to its emergence as an alternative to BTC?

I have the same thoughts with you. Ltc is in the momentum of growth with its value will increase over time. Look again, eth is a $ 8 coin but now it's $ 400
Maybe in the next time ltc can be at $ 50 for the time limit. Can not know in advance because if you know that you are already rich

it is all the money that came back to altcoin scene this year.
every year there is a same story, and this year is no different apart from being a bit bigger. if you take a look at all the other couple of hundred altcoins you can see ALL of them are being pumped with the same scheme.
open a couple of charts side by side and don't look at the price, just the lines and how they went up and then down and plateaued.

it is as if pumpers are jumping from one altcoin to another to do the same, then leave a lot of bag holders who lost money behind.

I don't know much about Ethereum

So I can't say anything specific in this regard, but people are saying that its price is pumped without any measure (read it may crash soon on its own). Regarding other alts, if Bitcoin crashes dramatically to 1,000 dollars per coin and below, these coins are obviously going to crash too, at least, initially (since folks will just cash out and wait with fiat in their pockets). But right now, for example, Litecoin is slowly but surely rising against Bitcoin, though both coins are going down in fiat terms

As we saw in the chart of bitcoin to litecoin. The bitcoin has a good movement rather than ltc. In past month, after the bitcoin core updated the price of bitcoin has a big pump many people don't understand of it because bitcoin price is already in the high peak. Unlike litecoin, after the segwit and update of this project, the pump is only 20%. There is no cryptocurrency that break the volume coinmarketcap and price of bitcoin because I think in every enrolled alts bitcoin is affected.

[sujonali1819]

In my openion bitcoin is more stable coin than ltc.but ltc olso well than another coin.Bitcoin is already increased in high.but ltc is now little  yet.So i want to keep btc in front of ltc.

Forget about market crap finally

It is amount of fiat invested in a coin that counts. Regarding Bitcoin being pumped while Litecoin only moderately rising, we should rather look at how Litecoin trades when Bitcoin dumps. If it sustains Bitcoin crashes, it doesn't crash as much (i.e. its price in bitcoins rises despite all coins going down), it is a sign that people selling Bitcoin might in fact be buying Litecoin. The point is that if Bitcoin gets forked people will run from it. Most of them will likely remain in fiat (after liquidating their Bitcoin stashes) but some may in fact jump into Litecoin at the end of the day

Guys, Do you really think that someone can create a better Crypto currency than Bitcoin? In my opinion, there are so many options. Where it is possible to earn using different crypto-currencies, but what concerns Bitcoin, then this is a very stable crypto currency and its future is unshakable and very large.

[mizrak]

Personally I don`t have any Litecoin but I believe Litecoin may have a potential because there are some practical facts for real business  accepting litecoin
1-it is much more faster than bitcoin
2-its fee is very cheap than bitcoin ,
that may create a demand for this coin ,
For bitcoin there is nothing to add new...
