Ł
What does everyone think? Kind of like how ฿ is used for BTC sometimes.
the slash on the L kind of looks like a t, hence LTC

I don't think any symbol should be associated with Litecoin until it gets more popular. Its much easier to recognize a 3 letter acronym than a symbol if you're a newbie. "Hey, what's Ł?" v.s. "Hey, what's LTC?" I prefer the latter for now. |

So far, LTC seems to be the best choice of all the options presented (IMHO). Keep going though guys! This could be that hallmark thread of decision! |

depending on your keyboard and text editor/website it should probably be: Alt + 0321 (utf-8) or Alt + 0163 (iso-8859-1 - bitcointalk.org uses this charset, don't know why they won't switch to utf-8...) |

It looks nice with numbers! Ł200 Ł400 Ł600.....

I think it would look better with two close parallel lines crossing the L instead of just one for a picture of it but for the font one line makes sense.

I think for both Bitcoin and Litecoin the official versions should have two strokes, but until we get our own Unicode characters, the Baht and the Polish Ł can do for now.

Companies claiming they got hacked and lost your coins sounds like fraud so perfect it could be called fashionable. I never believe them. If I ever experience the misfortune of a real intrusion, I declare I have been honest about the way I have managed the keys in Casascius Coins. I maintain no ability to recover or reproduce the keys, not even under limitless duress or total intrusion. Remember that trusting strangers with your coins without any recourse is, as a matter of principle, not a best practice. Don't keep coins online. Use paper or hardware wallets instead.

It's nice to know that even casascius doesn't view litecoins as a hostile cryptocurrency and is open-minded to the idea of an alt-chain, unlike SC/MC which the entire community has a consensus that it is a scam. |

That's because it is. LTC has the source code available. That makes a huge difference. |
