Topic: [ANN] Litecoin - a lite version of Bitcoin. Launched! - page 289. (Read 1467278 times)

Started by me , got the warning "there hasn't been anything posted in this thread for XX days, but I thought, fuck it

Litecointalk is one of the few altcoin forum which gets used more then the bitcointalk thread

Funny, but it's not over yet and that dark coin should be Monero.

I enjoyed reading this, thank you .


Very nice and thanks! You should contact litecoinlearner.com to get listed in the merchants section .

Hi All

Just to let you all know i am now accepting LITECOIN as payments on my web site

Also a personal thank you to many others for assisting me in testing this out, super quick payments with LITECOIN i must say & very easy payment method to use.

Its not yet fully integrated into my web site but i can invoice you with a payment key if anyone wants to order anything

We provide celebration Cake items for many different occasions.

If you do need anything just message me i will also offer a 20% discount on the original prices displayed to anyone willing to pay with LITECOIN

I totally agree, the biggest argument against ltc is that it's now exactly the same as bitcoin regarding to the asic armswar. But stilll, the network of ltc needs far less elektricity then btc

Nowadays, Cryptos are more like investment instrument, similar with others goods like gold, silver, oil and all against DOLLARS
So, when dollars is going strong and the others will fall for sure.

Since the wind in dollars side, in next few months will be more turbulance

Litecoin needs to bring sexy back!

It's faster and therefore more convenient to use than BTC. Period.

LTC has proven to be a trustworthy, non-hyped alternative to Bitcoin and with it's HUGE jump on all other competitors it will continue to hold the #2 position to BTC.

What can be done to improve it's visibility? To ensure LTC keeps it's #2 position.

LiteVault is a very welcome recent development. Hopefully the operators will create a GUI similar to Coinbase or Blockchain.info that touts all of the security advantages it offers compared to it's competition (coinkite). And PR's the hell out of it!

Litecoin SHOULD BE accepted at EVERY merchant currently accepting Bitcoin (online as well as brick and mortar). It is liquid (#1 requirement for merchant acceptance). Most people aren't buying houses or even cars with crypto - at least for now. Litecoin can handle "smaller" purchases (up to $10,000 USD) without a problem.

Litecoin SHOULD BE VIEWED as the hipper, faster, younger brother of Bitcoin. Cool designs/logos need to be created and marketed by someone. Hats, shirts, stickers, etc.

Litecoin (and Bitcoin for that matter) should be HEAVILY marketed to the legal marijuana market in Colorado, Washington, California, etc (dispensary owners, growers, edibile mfr's, etc). These businesses have absolutely NO ACCESS to banks. Most (if not all!) operate CASH ONLY. This multi-BILLION DOLLAR MARKET is an IDEAL target for Litecoin to penetrate. Again, not POT or another hyped up clone of Litecoin. LTC has LIQUIDITY!

Now back to sexy. Litecoin needs to be the Miami of cryptocurrency. It needs a flavor - tasteful but sexy! Rather than post about day-to-day price fluctuations or nauseating penny stock scare tactics, this community needs to take individual actions to bring the sexy back.

That's my 2 cents, anyways.

Youre right, but for the detail that Litecoin is not a stock 

Its down since January because BTC is down since January


What about BTC bagholders? 

current mkt cap ~$73 million, steadily down from ~$1 Billion in January, for sure there are some LTC bagholders lurking

What are you talking about sad btch

Bagholding its used just when the value of what you have is close to nothing, since when litecoin has 0 trading?

Last time I saw it was a 74M$ market and very liquid!

You have no idea of what youre talking about

Thanks for the heads up, I told him  there is no hard fork and to remove his tweet.

I came to this thread, because I read a tweet about a hard fork, lol. Nice to know it's not true, weird that people say such things though.

You're bag holding, are you sure the price will rise again ?

Since March 2012, litecoin transaction has increased around 5 times, while bitcoins around 15 times. so why should ltc rise ?

definitely don't dump your litecoin now, wait for the ratio to go below .007 then dump

Price will go to 1$ and i buy  Lot of litecoins

I'm sure the speculators will have a field day during this years halving (in Oct).


However with that said, im not here to make money honestly. I have a deep desire and passion to get Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, etc adoption in the world because I believe it will help those less fortunate with remittances, instant money transfer between parties instead of using western union, charity fund raisers (there was an article I read where a charity in Africa who gets money from the US changes 6 hands, each one taking a cut, I believe it was the water project), and so on.

Unfortunately LTC price is been affected in a bigger proportion than the drop for BTC, but youre right no reason to sell

Of course I am, the who crypto ecosystem has been taking a beating on price within the last few days. It does not help Litecoin that it is essentially anchored to Bitcoins price.

Thats allright 

Good I dont have to worry about my coins!

Are you guys holding? Its mayhem right now

Im strong hands 

I sent him an email asking for a correction to the blog. Thanks for pointing it out!
