Does anyone else see the irony here?
LTC dead thread @ 36 pages....LTC @ $36 USD
So let's go for 1000 pages and hope.. LTC @ $1000? LTC dead thread @ 36 pages....LTC @ $36 USD

I'm thinking that some other alt will overtake it in time. It is performing well, for now.
Just like bitcoin tho... Litecoin has this head start which is hard to overcome. I am unclear what is the number 3 coin right now.

ooops to LTC haters
Yes, but for example, where's namecoin now? Essentially dead, right? There you go, this chart means nothing.
ooops to LTC haters
That's traded amount correct? If BTC was worth more the total amount traded would be less than another that is cheaper. Can you do that chart again but use equivalent in US dollars? I'm curious. that chart shows the traded amount of litecoin in pairs LTC/USD and LTC/BTC whic is all converted to BTC and compared to the traded amount of Bitcoin on all exchanges
so value of Litecoin trades the last 24 hours in Bitcoin was 88813 BTC (the Chinese exchanges were excluded, okcoin, FXBTC also excluded for some reason)
the trading volume of Bitcoin the last 24 hours 103995 BTC

Correct
AFAIK sha256 is also used extensively in Litecoin, scrpt is only used in its mining function.
Scrypt is secure. SHA256 is secure. No one on the earth can crack them. So it does not make sense to compare the 2 algorithms in term of security.
Actually, there is no source code for either SHA256 or scrypt, they're mathematical algorithms, they're known, and they have thousands of implementations in various licenses, closed or open source.
I will add that Scrypt is a newer Algo but not used widely as SHA-2, but this doesn't mean that SHA-2 is more secure than Scrypt, basically the wide use of SHA-2 comes from years of experience so it is safe somehow.
Scrypt is working well for Litecoin, infact it proved to be a win and major factor for the existence of Litecoin. and it is still serving its purpose.
Well thats that sorted thanks for the link
Lets not forget BTC has got that ugly NSA (National Security Agency) produced closed source function sha-256 sitting right at in the heart of it.
SHA-256 closed source? Tell us more...
The NSA does not publicly display its work.

I could be completely clueless here but this was the first Google hit: https://polarssl.org/sha-256-source-code
