So Charlie Lee dumped all his LTC at its high point and wants others to keep supporting it? If the one saying this does not support it by holding or buying LTC, then why should the rest of us?
Charlie Lee selling all his LTC to prove he has no conflict of interest promoting Litecoin means he has nothing to lose if LTC fails, in other words he used his escape pod and bailed out of it.
When the inventor of anything doesn't even use his/her own product, then why the hell should others?
Also LTC becoming 1/4th of BTC price was fiction as well, by that it should be over 4k$ price, it's not even 1/4th of that, more like 1/4th of 1/4th of 1/4th.

Charlie Lee "sold all his litecoin" to "prove" he has no conflict of interest promoting Litecoin.

No Charlie, that's not what that would prove!  Smiley

It proves that you are spineless. A disgusting fish faced gook who stands for nothing! Congratulations!

Somehow dumping Litecoin at the top is supposed to be applauded by your nimwit cult?

Hi, I'm Charlie Lee inventor of Litecoin. It is an amazing system for sending value, it has massive room to grow, you should buy it now that its moved from $2 to $300! Oh you want me to show you how it works? Sorry, I don't own any.

Fuck You!
lmao Merry Christmas!

FALSE. LTC is 1/4 of BTC. Confirmed even by Charlie Lee. Will never be 1:1 with BTC. PERIOD.

Too much optimistic about the price I also think it wont happen in short time of period because bitcoin is the pioneer cryptocurrency. LTC is younger brother of it so that is really strange when someone try to compare like this.

Oh my god, this is really an old thread. Reading now at this point, the feeling is so strange. By going through the thread, you can see the thought change in the different stage in the past several years, following the growth of the crypto currency world.

Litecoin creator Charlie Lee has revealed on social media that he sold and donated all his Litecoin holdings over the past few days.
The announcement was meant to show he no longer has a conflict of interest in promoting the altcoin but the timing has sparked some backlash against Lee.
Founder of Litecoin Charlie Lee has informed the community today that he no longer has any meaningful direct exposure to the cryptocurrency, having sold and donated all his Litecoin holdings in recent past days. Writing on Reddit he explains that this was done to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest when promoting Litecoin as someone with so much social influence.
Lee reassures his followers that this does not mean he is quitting Litecoin and will still spend all his time working on the cryptocurrency he created. Lee also explains that he will continue to benefit from the growth of Litecoin – just not by holding the cryptocurrency itself.


He SODL for our sins!

Greetings, friends at Litecoin!

As Komodo Platform has been working around the clock to fine-tune the multiple GUI's that are the face of our Agama multiwallet and BarterDEX atomic swap protocols, there have obviously been many bugs found and many debugged. However, one bug in particular was found not only in our Agama GUI wallet, but also in the zcash4mac GUI swing wallet. It is a simple bug, but it warrants your attention. This is a potential money cost bug, and as a Bitcoin-protocol cryptocurrency, your GUI wallet(s) may be susceptible. We are reaching out directly to the developers and communities of the 60+ coins featured on Agama and BarterDEX as the bug may have a direct impact on you (via your own wallet).

watchonly-GUI bug: 'watchonly' addresses appearing as your own in GUI wallet; users could potentially send funds to the address, unaware it is not theirs or available for withdrawal. You can import and it becomes a 'watchonly' address. The GUI will display the address as yours, add its funds to your balance, and accept deposits, but cannot be withdrawn. This could be a normal address, my address, a p2sh address, satoshi's address, etc. This can be confusing to an end-user and will lead to many headaches for the developer, as is always the case with misplaced funds.

FOUND: in Komodo Platform's Agama multiwallet (fixed) and zcash4mac GUI swing wallet (@jl777B: "newest QT wallet seems ok about watch only, but not sure of older and when it was fixed")

ex. @grewalsatinder found the bug in his zcash swing wallet: https://i.imgur.com/sVd0QTL.png

Quote from: jl777B
"satinder used zcash4mac, ie. the zcash osx GUI, not ours... the assumption is no GUI out there properly handles watch only addresses, until proven that they do... agama also had this bug, which we found and fixed, so it seems a very common bug to have"

SOLUTION: For the 'watchonly' address or any address not yours, the value 'ismine' returns false. Any such address gets filtered out.

QUESTIONS:
  • How does your recommended GUI deal with watchonly addresses?
  • Does your GUI display watchonly addresses as different than actual addresses in the wallet?

We need to experiment a bit to see which approach gets a better response triggering the bug. People WILL lose money if they send funds to a watchonly address.

Quote from: jl777B
"the t3 addresses in the 'Own Addresses' column! and they absolutely cant be as they are p2sh addresses. it is clear proof that the bug is very real and anybody that understands a p2sh address will understand it cant be something in your wallet. it is usually a multisig address, so only if it is a 1of1 multisig (possible but very silly) can you have a p2sh address that is spendable, but the wallet wont even know it... normal addresses can also be watchonly, which makes this even worse. in that case it would appear in the list of addresses just like all the others. even if you are able to spot p2sh addresses visually, it wont be enough"

We want to spread awareness and facilitate discussion of this bug to minimize the impact.

Of course - we can always talk about how you can use BarterDEX today to trade Litecoin via atomic swap directly with your peers, through our beta GUI and without downloading the entire blockchain ; ) That is how we found the bug, afterall.

Stay safe,
Jay

Lite coin is becoming more popular day by day.We the hodlers buy wait and invest more if we can afford.On the other hand lots of whales try to manipulate the prices and take what we have in our hands.The only way to survive is not to panic and wait.

I'm not convinced that there is deliberate manipulation. Traders are simply using LTC (and ETH) to move coins between exchanges. Large volumes can often simply be a large holder of BTC moving a few coins for trading. and long as the BTC/LTC markets are stable, then LTC is a good tool to move money with lower tx fees.

Litecoin's market was suppressed for long long time and what is happening this is all is reaction. Most importantly the use cases and new exchanges which let many people the opportunity to put hands on Litecoin. After last correction general sentiment looks bullish in this market.

Litecoin has skyrocketed in value this year with its latest all-time high bringing the altcoin's year-to-date gain above 8,000%.
The digital currency which is very similar to Bitcoin..
rose to as much as $360.93 today according to CoinMarketCap.
Litecoin has been enjoying a continued rising movement this year which has resulted in some very handsome gains.
Bitcoin has had a very strong year climbing from less than $1,000 to nearly $20,000 on the CoinDesk Bitcoin Price Index.
While both digital currencies have have great years Litecoin has risen far more than Bitcoin which has climbed less than 2,000% in 2017.

I don't understand at each increase why some people start comparing one coin with other based on their own wish without taking in consideration external factors. LTC is increasing that is very good and let's enjoy these times by concentrating on these profits times. Who knows what future holds for anyone.
