Hi, can't get it. What is the sense in  buying  empty LTC addresses that were in use on May 12, 2014. What have I missed that time?

TL;DR
"Clamcoin was initially distributed to every Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Dogecoin address that had non-dust funds on May 12, 2014. Each qualifying BTC, LTC and DOGE address was given 4.60545574 CLAMS free regardless of the address's balance, as long as it was above a "dust" (an amount too small to use) threshold."

There is always a chance that someone will make a fork of any coin. I haven't however noticed anything worth mentioning being planned. There are about 3 scams per week claiming to be a fork of LTC, but I tend to ignore those.

That being said, there is a SOFT fork of Litecoin planned to reduce the transaction fees. But a soft fork is a non-event. There is no chance for the chain to actually split in two.

A lot of rumors lately about a posible Litecoin fork, so I did a little research and found this post of Charlie on Twitter: "Since on the topic of scams, any fork of Litecoin, calling itself Litecoin something or other, is a scam IMO. Litecoin Cash, Litecoin Plus, Litecoin *... all scams trying to confuse users into thinking they are Litecoin. This also applies to all Bitcoin forks trying to confuse. " I believe he's clearly enough about this "fork" !

ltc is fast... but the price is low now...   

[Tak2020]

You never can tell friend, LTC is one of the most respected coin in the crypto world, the market is up and down and the market can go high, 300$ will be small to achieve.

LTC looking like it is doing OK. 

[Spaniarder]

why did the founder of ltc dump his shares and does that not look bad on the company?

First,  he is more a developer rather than founder, two different things. Second, wise move from his side. I would also dump @that-price if I had bag which equals to his. More advanced and sofisticated entitities are ready to  take a lead and he had feelings of that.

yeah,  moves in lock step with Bitcoin.

Imho it's not a good from the trust perespective if the biggest coin holder and founder drops all his belonging at the all time high, looks like planned dump and i'm sure we won't see $300 in a distant future, and most likely never. Right now a lot of assets are dropping in price due to the fact that end of 2017 was over optimistic and looked like a big bubble, now air comes out of it and we are not at the bottom yet.

yeah, the trust might be misplaced after his move and the rounds of LTC are funny since that. Nevertheless I am still holding half of my bag as I see price will go  rather  up than down. But this is a crypto... I realize

LTC popularity is rapidly growing, with many people favouring it as an alternative to Bitcoin. LTC is currently priced at $163, commanding a market cap of   $8,974,073,256 at that price. It’s down just shy of 6.33% over the last twenty-four hours according to Coinmarketcap.
The founder of Litecoin, tweeted earlier on in the year:
The Litecoin team has been hard at work working with companies to support Litecoin. Nothing to announce yet, but here’s what’s in the works: Merchant processor, popular online wallet, goods trading platform, one huge unexpected surprise…2018 will be a good year for Litecoin!
We are" even that crypto experts are expecting the popularity of this coin to rise rapidly this year. Rank number #8, it looks undervalued. C+

Well, Agree with you But Almost All cryptocurrencies are in red position right now.

Rise/fall is common in Crypto-world, like Bitcoin. $19,000 to $10,000.

Be positive and should be patience.

A legenedary post by a legendary user. Really great to see charlie also contribute to the entire community on bitcointalk.

Keep up the good work.

LTC prices are still struggling to find a bottom. Cryptocurrency markets at large, and not Litecoin, are to blame here. All of the top cryptocurrencies entered the red zone two days ago and have stayed there since.If we analyze the situation as a whole,it becomes glaringly obvious that fickle investors are once again playing into the hands of market fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD). There are two seemingly bad pieces of news driving the sell-off.   Neither affects Litecoin’s fundamentals.You just need to stop panicking and wait with the continue with good expectations for 2018.

BTC is pulling down all alts right now, really hope LTC or some other coin will grow faster so it will not happen so much in the future. I think LTc has the potential to be that coin.

[bitChipper]

It's hard to imagine another long drawn out bear market like in 2014, the tech is night and day and the investor interest is also night and day.

If everything continues to just bleed out for months it would surprise me. LTC will do well this year because it has really matured.
