Litecoin is starting to get a lot of volume. It's the next big bang. #trust

3 million coins in the first 24 hours..?

Did they not announce it before they started mining?  I was under the impression they did, although I may be wrong.

I'e switched my LTC boxes to FC for the weekend.  I'll grab a few hundred coins and move back to LTC on Monday--if they turn into something, great.  If not, I won't lose sleep over it.

litecoin is already making waves since mt.gox already announced support for it Smiley

so currently it would seem that bitcoin == gold .... litecoin == silver .... bronze === ??

When's the last time you heard of someone buying bronze?

Litecoin is certainly the current altcoin juggernaught and asic safe for the time being.  PPCoin has certain new technological aspects that make it appealing as well.

Litecoin and the other scrypt coins I suspect will e where gpu miners go once asics have saturated the market over the next few months.

I personally imagine that litecoin will be the next big cryptocurrency, atleast for GPU miners. As the ASICs ship out the difficulty will soar and miners using GPUs will move on, likely to the next biggest cryptocurrency, being litecoin. Although, people with FPGAs will be unable to mine litecoin due to the fact that it uses scrypt and as a result it is likely that, if they wish to continue mining, they will move their miners onto one of the other SHA-256 based cryptocurrencies, such as PPCoin and Terracoin.

how can you assume that it was premined... it is 4x the amount of litecoin... but isn't trying to challenge litecoin but be a subcoin after litecoin

I'm not convinced on Feathercoin, it seems all the coin has backing it is premined coins that are providing its own self promotion.

It provides nothing over Litecoin?  Huh

With the monster acis units on the horizon of a full scale assault on btc soon(when they start mass shipping) and the ensuing skyrocketed difficulty level,

which coin will be the next big thing to mine?

Me personally i think the PPcoin since it too can be mined with a acis machine and would be perfect for us light wieghts who wont be able to compete with the tera hash/s powerhouses.
