Atlantis gone for good means it's just another Bitcoin clone now, it had real potential for a while but what remains isn't worth the fuss.
The infamous mtgox adoption (which I still think was a april fools joke) becomes less and less relevant as gox is limping towards it's gave. There is a slim chance that they might get back into the land of the living again and continue with their plans. But that's doesn't justify a price of over $2 USD, or even above a Dollar.

I quite agree, already dumped my holding. In exchange for Bitcoins obviously.

Also, I don't mine scrypt coins anymore. Too expensive with GPUs.

I find if funny that the presumption is that Litecoin needs Atlantis.

Trust me Litecoin is much bigger than Atlantis as is Bitcoin > Silk Road.

Litecoin will still be around for a long time. Can be sure of that.
It just those GPUs are so damn expensive to run. Especially here in UK.

Litecoin is a currency in its infancy, but at the moment it's valued above 200M USD. That price doesn't seem sustainable unless something big happens soon.

I agreed with you, it is so expensive to mine using GPUs in the UK. I am waiting for another 4 LTC to finish mining (That is the minimum withdraw from the pool I am using) then I am turning my GPU miner off for good.

when we wait month or two, there will be so many asics digging up bitcoin that difficulty will be in 2 months 16x bigger than now and many of gpu owners will go to litecoin
see what happens Smiley

source? And show me your calculations, because 21.5 million coins x 2.50 = 53M

The next week will be the big test for LTC with the imminent gox arrival and the 'apparent' fontas pump.

Why sell now when you will definitely profit from it. Although it is to be seen how much profit it will bring.

2013-03-01  the price of litecoin was between 7 and 8 cents. 0.07 and 0.08$. That is around 32 times (taking 2.4$ and 0.075$ prices) lower than at this moment.

I wouldn't want to buy Litecoins if there is no way to sell them. You just have to acknowledge a change of circumstances affects prices.

Mining BTC with ASICS does not give you ROI ever. If you already have GPUs, mining Scrypt is still more profitable.

Not necessarily true. Depends on the efficiency of the ASIC (i.e. Hash per $). A good calculator taking future difficulty into account: http://www.coinish.com/calc/ (make sure you click expert). There are a lot of inefficient ASICs though, yes, that is true. Also true that you can sell GPU's when done mining for a better profit margin over ASICs.

You must be lucky and have cheap electricity then. Or stealing it.
