thats actually another big piece of news for ltc...

seems to be building up steam for the next lift off and i suspect it will be quite a large one when it comes.

i'd second this. will be depositing this month's salary on LTC. with the current prices its at, such a cheap bargain offer ($23 at time of writing).

target estimate price for LTC is $50. For those that are uninformed, just look at litecoin's 2017 roadmap to the moon:

Let us all hope this is not another "LTC on Gox " scenario.

why should this happen with bitstamp? i bought (a few years ago) all my BTC @bitstamp and everything was fine. has something changed with this exchange?

and i have to adit that i don't expect the LTC price to increase because of this.

LTC has so many real news and developments in comparison to the other coins.
The 100 dollar run is approaching, and it will not dump from there.

As an owner of LTC, a bet I took a few weeks ago with the Segwit and Lightning networks annoucements, I take it for a great news can I ?
Thanks for the share  ! Smiley
But why bitstamp would prefer ltc to eth ? Why greeting the 5th capitalisation instead of the second one?

I asked myself the same questions and I'm sure various theories will be put forth. I even have my own; but, since all theories in crypto are generally pulled out of thin air I won't make any elite claims.

I'd like to chime in with my opinion which is this is because litecoin tech is simply more advanced. Cheaper and faster transactions than BTC? Like who wouldn't want that?

This is good news for LTC. All it lacks now is mass adoption by businesses. Anyway, with the current price of LTC as of writing, its a good time to buy and stock LTC for the future.

Edit: As for being good news according to the wiki in 2016 bitstamp was rated the second largest exchange in the world for BTC volume. So LTC being added is great news.
