[ANN] Litecoin - a lite version of Bitcoin. Launched!

[Totscha]

Is there any Litecoin Core wallet support? Where can I ask questions about its functions and bugs?
(Except litecointalk.io, because there is no possibility to register there.)

There is no 'official' support. But there's a bunch of places where you can ask specific questions you have:

Do you remember  when Charlie Lee said litecoin price could drop to about 40usd - when it was said it seems to be unimaginable, but now we know it is reality - and it seems to it is not a finish of dumps.. While bitcoin is close its bottom (however we have to be aware it could be much lower - about 3k) such decrease could cause much more decreas in altcoins prices (and LTC isn't excluded)
and I don't think any news could help - maybe for daytrading only...

All this year altcoin has been falling.it seems that the price of all cryptocurrencies does become lower.we don't know where the bottom is.and we can only cry and sell them.

The bottom is zero for all coins that have no purpose. Ask yourself whether you think the world needs a coin or not. If the answer is no, sell or hold for a fake pump.

the majority of coins have no real purpose, its all bullshit

Yes and even the "majority" sounds too peaceful. It's literally every single project out there. Bitcoin and a few others have some purpose.

i think right now the crypto market have its bottom right now price of bitcoin was lower the 6000$ once in this year and now stable between 6400 to 6800$. litecoin bottom was 47$. this is very cheap if you see liteoin's all time high value.
Charlie Lee prediction was right and now nobody knows that what will happens in future. prices goes more down or not but it looks like crypto touches it bottom by my point of views

Very cheap is very subjective. Comparing prices to the all time high is not a good strategy in my opinion for future decisions. Better to come up with some system to evaluate these things if possible.

hmmmm.....

as usual nothing of note on LTC development...used to be when the price tanked at least the LTC devs squeaked about something to get the price up!

(er, oops, last time they did anything of note that way it was the now 'defunct' and never to return supposed LTC debit card)

er maybe I should just let sleeping dogs lie with that as an example

Despite being criticized by many that the Silver coin LTC is depended completely by BTC‘s price movement, it is one of the few with high gains in the last 24-hours.

it has also dumped more than btc in the last year in value % wise

i have a theory that people blow the alts first in bad times and they are the last to come back..and probably ltc is better than most as a rebound

but usually, before LTC rebounds, LTC foundation shows it is doing something in the down times..now they seem content to ride btc coat tails

that  is dangerous, because i think a lot of ltc's loss in value and such is due to BCH taking part of its place as silver to btc's gold...god i hate saying that

but it seems obvious scam that bch is

thus, back to my question, where is the development action one usually sees when LTC drops more than 50% ..zip..nada...at least last time we had the

'illusion' of an ltc debit card....hell, i just read LTC foundation does not support or update the LTC qt wallet anymore

not impressed...and I go 410 LTC I've been sitting on for 2 years

Do you read my replies? There are at least two LTC debit cards out there. Have been for some months. I've posted them here several times.

This is business as usual in crypto. The companies that get all the hype usually never come through. The quiet ones in the back make everything happen.

The LTC Foundation hasn't been around for long enough for you to say "before LTC rebounds, LTC foundation shows it is doing something". It happened just once.

Litecoin is performing exactly like it has for the past five years.

The Foundation is there to promote LTC, not to be the only ones who develop. There is no such thing as official in crypto. They never released a line of code. Charlie has only recently become involved in development of LTC. During 2013-2017 it was Warren Togami who was the lead dev...

Lol, all altcoins affected by bitcoin movements (both downwards and upwards), so Litecoin has no chance to be only exception.
Sometimes, bitcoin rises with upwards impacts on Litecoin price, but most of the time the correlation between them are adverse one (bitcoin up, litecoin down and vice versa).
I think it is very normal rule of crypto market.

The LTC coin has grown very well in price over the past few days. It is very pleasing. I wonder how much it can still grow in the current market conditions.

[mercedes321]

funny how ppl want immediatly a price of 500 per a coin, buyers are buying only if they could sell it for more not less...and bit preety much defines the trend

Nothing impossible in the crypto ecosytem, especially in the coming bullish market.
Personally, we have been in the early phase of bullish market over the last 3 months of 2018.
I wish that Litecoin might reach 0.01 BTC for each LTC sooner or later this year.

0.01BTC is not a big deal it can achieve this goal at any time it need little push to reach that is realistic target for short term. LTC is strong coin after BTC it will keep moving with good support from the community and in coming days we will it rising again.

During the same period of time last year, Litecoin stood at 0.008 BTC, then raised to more than 0.01 BTC after several weeks.
I believe that this year, Litecoin will move upwards in the same way.
Agree with you that LTC is a good one. All people known that Bitcoin is Gold, and Litecoin is Silver in crypto world.

Yes and now that Charlie Lee is back full time developing Litecoin it can only get better!!

What is the overall situation for Bitcoin development? Are there any milestones that are to be met in the near future?

true, but 500$ is definitely on the agenda, it will take a few years but its coming. LTC is one of the very few thats guaranteed to get into a regulated funds when blockchain ETF's are coming.

yes it will take more time to get LTC price on 500$
right now the target is 100$ and currently price is stable at 60$. i hope it will not go under 50$ again in future
and about ETF, The SEC Has Been Taking Its Time nad there will be no ETF until 2019. it means ETF will happens but next year. so that's why the price is cheap right now

[sumit.mathur101]

once etf is approved price will skyrocket.

[Searing]

once etf is approved price will skyrocket.

the consensus I've heard is that will NOT happen till some kinda control over 'sketchy' exchanges like

bitifiix etc ..etc...so don't hold your breath, it could be years yet. Or so the SEC seems to think about

any NON USA exchange it seems.

[mercedes321]

its better its never aproved, otherwise we will see again a massive pump and a massive dump, better to be slow pump, so its more organic

[Saverenergy]

once etf is approved price will skyrocket.

My opinion is that the approval of ETF will not happen soon. But the stormy pump will be soon. After perhaps the approval of ETF will no longer be large pumps, there will be organic growth.
