The network effect of bitcoin is much more than litecoin. There are too few users of litecoin. It has to work harder to achieve.

Bitcoin will always be better than Litecoin. Bitcoin has a much bigger network and that's where all the value resides. There are a lot of projects using the BTC blockchain. On the other hand on the LTC team we don't see many activity and not many projects to leverage the coin.
actually many carried out by loyalist of litecoin, so LTC can still alive
yes bitcoin will continue better than LTC, due to the larger community, it is also one of them

I think that Bitcoin and Litecoin will always remain in existence even after a majority of alt coins become dead. They are the oldest cryptos out there (especially Bitcoin) and thanks to them, there has been more interest into crypto currencies with development of new alt coins and technology. Still, you need to see Litecoin as the Silver of crypto and Bitcoin as Gold. Just my opinion.  Roll Eyes

was up when the btc was around 500, now it's down because the btc is down also

he posted that msg 3 days ago, exactly when we were at 500 or so

I still dont know what you are talking about here is a BTC/LTC chart:

https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/btce/ltcbtc

There was nothing near 100% volatility in the last 4 days. The maximum I can see was about 15-30%.

it was a little increase on the price of any altcoin in the top 10, due to bitcoin pump, nothing major but it was there by a few %

Bitcoin seems to be much more mainstream and popular than Litecoin!
Yeah maybe for starters or newbie, they do not know, what it is litecoin
bitcoin is more popular because it is created first

Well, but do you think that Bitcoin has no more advantages compared to Litecoin except that it was created first?

Do you think that there are no valid reasons for Bitcoin to cost much more than Litecoin?

Litecoin 100% up in the last weeks. not dead i guess  Cheesy

don't confuse the value in bitcoin with usd, you should look at the former

it's obvious that the value in usd will increase for every ltcoin, but their btc value is down at the moment

The value in bitcoin went down -26%

Litecoin demand is solely fueled by the Chinese, unlike that of the Bitcoin. And that makes it much more volatile and unpredictable. There is hardly any demand for Litecoin in regions such as North America, European Union and Russia. Unless Litecoin gains popularity in these regions, it will remain in a  dormant mode, without much growth.

Bitcoin or Litecoin have advantages or disadvantages of each. because bitcoin use sha-256 and Litecoin use scrypt. and I prefer Litecoin. Bright future for Litecoin.

Both algorithms are ASIC mineable, so there is not much difference in terms of mining. Scrypt was used by litecoin as it is ASIC resistant. I mined some litecoin  with GPU, but stopped since ASIC came out. Litecoin should change its hash algorithms to other GPU friendly one, but it did not. So there are fewer users now.

Litecoin would be better of if it would be a hybrid crypto coin (with PoW and PoS combined) Also, reducing the current supply to lower value would make Litecoins rare, which would result in a price increase. Then, it could compete along with Bitcoin with its price and demand. Just my thoughts  Roll Eyes

Well the confirmation time is shorter which is a plus
I think litecoin more faster than bitcoin if about confirmation,
Sometimes I took 15 minutes or more to get 1 confirmation when sent bitcoin

The block time of Ethereum is 12 seconds, it need 500 blocks to confirm a transaction in poloniex. so the total time is 6,000 seconds. For litecoin, the block time is 2.5 minutes, it needs at least 24 blocks to properly confirm a transaction.
