Topic: [ANN] Litecoin - a lite version of Bitcoin. Launched! - page 110. (Read 1467291 times)

Litecoin is vying to become a “medium of exchange” for the digital world. Its end goal is to complement, if not fully substitute the slower and more expensive cryptocurrency.
And holders are the winners in this jungle of crypto world.

if someone asks you for private key, usually it means that you will lose all of your tokens in a couple of seconds

TA is actually quite accurate, simply because people believe in it, which makes it a self fulfilling prophecy. Resistance and support lines are real, patterns are real, because people expect them to.

yes i agree with you on that ltc is following BTC but right now the news of mt.gox make market disturb
and also no news coming from litecoin team and litcoin price is going down day by day
but bullish move will soon to happen it seems
also Billionaire Mike Novogratz said that The Next 3 to 12 Months Will be Very Exciting for Cryptocurrencies - Toshi Times

the catch with all crypto prices...is that if mt. gox trustee dumps say 400 million usd of BTC all assumptions are dorked....

why everyone is sitting on hands and all crypto looks muddied...even with relatively good news

where BTC goes LTC follows....uncertainty sucks!

It's like any other TA. A hot mess of assumptions and possible outcomes that basically tells you nothing...

What do you think about this LTC/USD technical analysis?

https://bestcrypto.tv/1358/litecoin-technical-analysis-ltc-usd-may-15-2018/

It is either a massive 'setup' IMHO, to drive the price of crypto down ...BTC etc with FUD and the mt. gox scare of dumping..for cheap coin, for big institutional folk to get on board with cheap coin

after 'missing the boat' in previous years or....it is going to dump because of the mt. gox whale and his 'obvious' slamming of BTC down (taking other alts with it) by ALWAYS selling on an exchange

and on the low price side...I mean, it is almost like he was picked by Japanese Bankers...to oversee this and wants to trash BTC big time on the liguidation...to bolster his 'cred' when he goes back

to his 'regular job' in the banking industry (naw, they would not do that right?) FML

so it is a dump in price to set up a massive pump at 'cheap coin' prices etc

or

it is a dump in price because adoption can't keep up with the reality that mt. gox liguidation trustee has to move 1.9 billion in usd by the end of this year (trustee wants to get paid and the japanese

gov't probably wants this whole mt. gox over with...)

jeez, either option looks like crap on the above re-read

again

FML

Totally agree with you. I am a frequent trader of LTC and a big long term holding also. So i am engaged in both the cases. Just waiting for a good news.

Searing: Your reasoning sounds good, but to me, the markets looks suspicious. I wouldn't be surprised, if it went below $100, before it goes above $200.

Same goes for bitcoin. Whales are either loading up some coins before pump, or trying to sell as many coins as possible here [without pushing price down fast too early] before initiating massive dump. Im watching order books trying to figure out whats going on below surface, but i have no clue yet
There is something fishy going on, whole price action of last couple of days is weird. Im curious what will be the outcome.

+many miners can mine with loss for some time, and keep the coins without selling them instantly. some can do it for months until price is favorable again-as they did in the past

Latest prices for the 'supposed' top of the line scrypt-pow miner available to consumers, the Bitmain L3+ (they have a ++ but guys on here have a tiny overclock mod you can make your L3+ into an L3++ should
you choose)

Anyway at my current rates (data hall month to month controlled climate etc) a 500mh 800watt L3+ makes 68c a day...kinda hard to see how the network is gonna work, LTC wise, with the top of the line
scrypt-pow product available (if brave enough price wise) is only making 68c a day. The question becomes...what if the price dumps due to say a mt. gox btc dump...taking LTC along with it? or just the
fact that LTC difficulty is at a pretty constant 30% per month (this may change ...so far this month 15% for about 1/2 the month) or GASP Bitmain releases the 'supposed' 1.5gh 400 watt scrypt-pow miner
and mines them (as in the past) for 4 months or more...and only offer them as a pre-order available late fall 2018 say.....any 2 of the above would be frigging 'dire' indeed!



makes you ponder

here are the stats and calcs from www.litecoinpool.org/calc I used my month to month rates...feel free to use yours. Remember this is a free no cost pool that pays at 101% and the calculator
reflects this

24 hours   0.02437126 LTC   3.36 USD   2.69 USD   0.68 USD
7 days   0.17059880 LTC   23.54 USD   18.82 USD   4.73 USD
30 days   0.73113772 LTC   100.90 USD   80.64 USD   20.26 USD

Right now, we really need a price pump in LTC, but that will simply make more folk by miners...thus difficulty will likely counteract any gains in LTC mining  ...thus same loop of low price per mining

an L3+. If Bitmain does the usual and makes a new product (the supposed 1.5gh 400 watt miner for scrypt-pow) and does the usual and mines if for 4-5 months before release to consumers...well

LTC mining, HOME mining, outside of Bitmain data halls, run at their reduced costs, could be deader than dead with that combo of new equip (only available to bitmain data halls) and pre-order risks and of course a sideways price ..as we have seen... so ...we are back slipping quite a bit

anyway, mostly this post is for those who trade and HODL LTC as a heads up for what is going on ...us miners are well, and I mean well, aware of these facts

The fact that so many litecoin users run full nodes is one reason for such decentralized crypto compared to many other nonsense coins.I would recommend you all to start the full node. The load on your pc is small. If you have litecoin, it's only natural that you also want to protect litecoin and fix it.

I think that 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.

Yes, litecoin.org is a trusted source. There is no such thing as 'official' in decentralized crypto. At least there shouldn't be...

Electrum-ltc.org is a good lightweight wallet. It doesn't keep the whole blockchain on the drive.

.

Hopefully after the listing this will bring more liquidity to LTC, maybe some institutional investors will finally get involved.

I have a lot of faith in this badboy, it's already being accepted in thousands of stores around the world.

you should treat LTC as part of your asset diversification. Crypto, Assets, Savings, precious metal, stocks.

is this the official lite page?
https://litecoin.org/es/
and if it is safe https://electrum-ltc.org/
I want a wallet to keep the money for a long time and have low fees and private keys

As an aside, that won't happen...on the mention of Bitcoin Cash...IF and this is pretty much a philosophically impossible IF, Bitcoin Core (BTC) WAS to propose a block size increase

to say 32mb as a HARD FORK...that IMHO, would be all she wrote folks for Bitcoin Cash...would be having their cake and eating it too...

AGAIN, that will likely never happen, *unless needed for some catastrophic unplanned fork*...but I mean, from a thought experiment point of view having you block sized pumped

up to say 32mb and also have seg wit and lightning....would really toss a wrench into BCH. (then again odds are eth would surpass BTC and BCH before that ever happened)..

ah well....just a wild thought
