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

[jqprez]

Ok, i think that after the end of xripple on coinbase the Ltc will be the next number 3. I have the impression that some big guy at some point abandoned Litecoin to return to the dollar (ie xripple). I make two considerations. Investments in crypto have fallen by 1.5% so there is a large amount of fiat that needs to be relocated. Where do you think it can be relocated?

[GreenPanda]

The first time I tried to mine Litecoin was exactly 6 years ago, with a good old Radeon HD6850! I then realized a day or two later that there was a thing called ASIC  



When did you guys stumble onto Litecoin?

[jqprez]

At what point is Mimblewimble?

[Arnaud]

what about privacy coins and the SEC ?

Litecoin next target is $300.

[FatFork]

When did you guys stumble onto Litecoin?

Not exactly sure, but I'm guessing somewhere around 2014-2015, too. The problem is that I wasn't particularly interested in cryptocurrencies in general at the time.
I think I bought my first Litcoin sometime in 2017.

[jqprez]

We are slowly approching the $150 price target while BTC hit 25k. "Everybody gonna make it, just be patient".

Litecoin is trading around $132, there just few more bucks before we're going to hit $150 price target. All eyes are looking at litecoin, Bitcoin ride will make everything possible. Looks like it's time to do dun with LTC.

Well, IMHO, the Litecoin pump in price has something to do with the 1) the XRP slap down of proposed regulations 2)Litecoin on PayPal and 3) GrayScale Litecoin Trust.

With, the GrayScale Litecoin Trust, IMHO, responsible for just about everything, price-wise, for Litecoin, from $85 on up!

I mean, the GrayScale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) sells institutional grade/legal Bitcoin stock? (not quite what to call this) securities? at 20% or more markup (I think this is correct)

 just to get into the fund, over the BTC price.

This allows GrayScale to pump GBTC and make more wealth from adoption/investors to buy even more BTC and the FOMO and price

pump reflected in Bitcoin. Supposedly GrayScale has 'currently' 70% of all 'institutional investment' Bitcoin.

So, I think this article was December 7th, 2020....what did folks think were gonna happen, when after the success of the GrayScale BTC trust..when they now offer

a GrayScale Litcoin Trust!

Take profits/buy more LTC at 20% markup/LTC Grayscale trust securities go up/LTC goes up ..take profits ..re-put into LTC and Rinse/Wash/Repeat

This can only go on so long unless other players jump into this kinda thing as well (pretty sure this will start happening soon for LTC/BTC and/or other altcoins)

I just hope that 'someday' at LEAST Litecoin will be more than Craig Wright's Bitcoin SV, the 'fake' Satoshi...I mean it is just embarrassing that LTC is less than BSV..

I'll know LTC is in a 'safe' spot no matter the price, as long as it  'someday' becomes more than the sh*tcoin Bitcoin SV.

(good to have goals)

anyway, IMHO, why we are seeing Litecoin pump..this GrayScale Litecoin Trust and probably PayPal allowing to you buy LTC on top of this...also adds to the LTC pump!

time will tell

The LTC pump has something to do with tennis. If you pay the ticket for Wimbledon you wanna see Federer, Nadal and Djiokovic. With the crypto is the same, you pay for Btc, Eth and Ltc. Obvious that the money are transfered from xripple to Ltc cause xrp have a doping ban...

[Flash_Smith]

Has anyone ever noticed that on Bittrex the trade for ltc-usdt always has an order of 407.780 ltc on the book for a couple dollars below price and a couple dollars above price? There are a few other coins that also have these walls that consistently are the same.
  Anyone have any insight to this?

litecoin outperformed ripple in the rank by capitalization. Now is 4th ( the 3th is usdt) I hope that within a few weeks it will reach the right value.

And more importantly, it is worth more than BCash and SV combined

acute observation! among other things, I never understood why Litecoin never fork.

[Stalker22]

Litecoin is back in its proper position as the fourth cryptocurrency (third if we exclude Tether) by total market value.
Welcome back Litecoin!

It did. But Litecoin Cash was just a premine pump and dump scam, that was fortunately a short-lived miserable failure.

It clearly shows that billions value on bitcoin network is facing the threat of Quantum computers. It is time to build a Post-Quantum security cryptocurrency. Tidecoin is an attempt to build a quantum secure Bitcoin.

Welcome back Litecoin!

Faster block confirmation (~2.5 minutes) + Lowest Transaction cost (1 Litoshi/Byte). What more one might ask for?

Litecoin is 'almost' more than scammy BSV...I mean go baby go.....It has been a couple of years of confusion on how BSV could have been more

than LTC in the first place.

Frigging Craig Wright playing the 'fakeSatoshi' scam on top of all this.

but I mean really....BSV price must someday 'always' be below LTC price if I'm to have any 'faith' in the logic of the Universe!

But I will bet my real money 'fake satoshi' spins one of the 2 possibilities below to 'prove' he is Satoshi!

1) Craig Wright 'loses' the court case with the Dave K. estate..he will then 'skip' overseas and never pay. But he will "INSIST" that by them

wining the case against him 'proves' he is Satoshi! So he will play that out for 'decades' the asshole.

2) Craig Wright 'wins' the court case and does NOT have to pay, he also will claim this proves he is satoshi with all his 'dubious' supposed

facts submitted to the court...shooting down the Dave K. estates arguments otherwise if he is not Satoshi..why did they sue him

for such?....so he must be Satoshi or why did they bother? Either way, the prick will be insufferable, for decades to come.

Sh*t.

So anyway, in some way, shape, manner 'someday' LTC has to be worth more on paper than BSV...I mean w/o such in the 'Universe' it will continue to be
...
way, way out of whack! So I'd really like to see LTC blow past and STAY more than frigging BSV...I mean let the horror end!)

let's analyze a bit the growth path of bitcoin at the marketing level: In my opinion three things have influenced: The mysterious figure of Satoshi, the large thefts of btc that have occurred over time and then the various claims such as the false one of Craig Wright. If Coblee had done something more to mythologize and hadn't sold his LTCs (maybe he could pass it off as a theft) at this time we were talking about a crypto that was worth at least $ 600.

Where do they hide the Litecoin Bootstrap?
All the links I find are old or not there anymore.
