Anyone knows whats happening to LTC? Price going down very hard, segwit statistics page nots working: http://segwit.co/ltc ....Did i miss something?

Im still trying to piece it together, but it looks like one of the mining pools who C. Lee said will be signalling SegWit has not yet started.
This has spread FUD and then people started panic selling. Just ridiculous. People have complete inablility to sit through anything and allow a few tweets to crash LTC.


Thats the problem with immature investors, shitting their pants everytime they hear anything, Segwit definitely will happen on LTC, but it will take longer than expected. BTC will not have the segwit and we will see the HF.

Anyway, thanks for update!

Miners: if you would like to support SegWit on Litecoin consider switching to a SegWit signalling pool.

The top 6 at the moment are listed here:
http://www.bitcoinisle.com/2017/04/04/top-6-litecoin-mining-pools-signaling-segwit-support/

There are others too e.g. https://ltc.suprnova.cc (see above)

I doubt that there will be a segwit now
Adoption decreased from 71% to now only 67% and seems to keep falling. Anyway, I wish holders all the best

Variance in blocks, I wouldnt worry about it.

hello every one

what do you think about lite coin price in the future ? how much is target ?

thanks you

A new ATH for all of the litecoin hodlers. No doubt number 2 on the coin marketcap being so real. in my speculation is $25.

To claim #2 again, Litecoin will have to hit about $81. At $25 we will only be at #3. Neither is a bad thing, just posting observation.

Could the secret ASICBOOST mining exploit used by Chinese miners affecting BTC stop SegWit on LTC?

SegWit has been shown to stop ASICBOOST. Chinese miners who are not signalling for SegWit might be reluctant to give up their advantage. I hope not.

Are there any LTC mining experts out there who could shine some light on this? Can ASICBOOST be used on LTC?

Nice question, i'm also interested to know the answer!

Not sure where the ASICBOOST situation is leading, but my money is on SegWit activation soon. There is too much of a demand for miners to ignore it. With the price rise I should imagine new mining ops will be switching to LTC.

SegWit and the Coinbase news are two compelling reasons to buy and hold on LTC. If you are considering LTC, this is a must read:
https://cointelegraph.com/news/segwit-hype-sees-litecoin-price-pass-10-for-first-time-since-2014

EDIT: 8th April 2017 ... I've just learnt from a reliable source that Chinese miners are not using the ASICBOOST exploit to mine Litecoin - and couldn't, even if they wanted to. This is because there are differences between Litecoin and Bitcoin e.g. Litecoin is Scrypt-based. Any ASICBOOST capability on Litecoin is a long way off - that's if it were possible. By that time, Litecoin would have well and truly incorporated SegWit, Lightning Networks etc. So, it's a level playing field for all.

Can anyone ecplain me whats the difference between segwit and csv? Because csv has more support from miners... Thanks

CSV makes it possible to add certain demands to your transaction.

Think about stuff like multi-sig or locking funds for a certain time period.


Understood! Thanks
