Topic: the worthless bitcoin/litecoin debate (Read 3282 times)

Yeah, I was a bit hesitant to say it before, but I really think that anyone who owns any litecoins at all should be arrested, sent to an extermination camp and gassed with cyanide or shot in the back of the head. Well, unless the camp doctor wants to have a bit of fun with vivisection or something. You've really got my number.

    

Give me one altcoin which has significant improvements over BTC and not just a fork with a name change and I'll promote it.

Competition. Diversification. Natural selection. Free market. Having multiple crypto-currencies in existence increases the probability of the survival and success of the concept, which is more important than the success of any one particular version. Evolution.

This ^^. I do not use or trade Litecoin, but it is great that there is competition that is successful as well. Competition is good for innovation. And it shows that Bitcoin is not unique, it is likely that it will be surpassed by better crypto, just be ready when the moment comes.

Litecoin is a miner's wet dream.

No pesky ASIC miners and 8 times the coin generation of Bitcoin.

Oh, and fees to dream of. Minimum fee is 0.02 LTC, though it seems not uncommon to charge more (btc-e charges 0.1 LTC). Yummy, yummy.

So please, let people buy Litecoin at their hearts content.  

Repeat after me ... "Litecoin is the silver to Bitcoin's gold".

ok I will play your game: I am an idiot, and I invested in bitcoin because "they said it is great", I dont know why bitcoin has value beside speculation  so enlighten me and other users who doesn't know why

maybe you should try that yes

Edit: and I would like to know why bitcoin holds value ?

+1

wrong analogy

Visa and Mastercard is like Coinbase and blockchain.info web wallet

The € Euro was only created because having a different currency in each European country was bad for the economy.

Only reason litecoin get so much love in the forums is from all the miners that can continue to use their now worthless graphikcards mining rigs.
Wonder what those people will switch to as soon as scrypt ASICs will be available.

Hitler: Jews shouldn't survive
communists: what is the point of Brands
Bitcoiners today: Litecoin shouldn't survive and have no value

you are a mix of the above things, Litecoin has value for the same reasons as Bitcoin, arguuing about the litecoin value can apply for bitcoin as well so who is bitching ? use some common sense...

they said that about visa and mastercard too.


if you think bitcoin is going to be the only coin in the world , your crazy .


Keep bashing Litecoin guys all you do is make more and more people aware of it everytime you type  Litecoin , hahaha thanks guys

The only bitching I see is yours, in this thread.

I knew about bitcoin the end of last year and I was so fascinated about bitcoin that I was one week suffering from not sleeping/eating enough because of reading and searching it trying to understand the hole concept, I am so thankful that I knew about it just about the right time.

when I started there were few alts that I knew about, Litecoin and namecoin and PPC and that was all what I knew about alts, at the time it did make sense having 2 or 3 alts, and more or less LTC as a hole different network made more sense, NMC as a merged mined that should deal with domain names didn't make any sense but what ever, PPC had also a concept(if they didn't have the checkpoints...)

but the recent event of litecoin's price and the hate between members in this community was really surprising, I have to admit that my Bitcoins hold more value than my litecoins and I see a great future for both Bitcoin and Litecoin and I am sure that they will both shine, yet I do not understand people arguing about the small things, cant you put your energy in use and work together to make a better Bitcoin and Litecoin community?

 in other hand I was checking the ALT sub-forum the last few months, and I spent some time to see what is going on there and yes I have to admit that this shit went out of control, I mean there is sexcoin and there is even shitcoin and there is .. you have a coin for every word in the dictionary. but the question and it is funny how this coins are even comparable to Bitcoin or even litecoin, it is like having money and monopoly money.

 Litecoin members and devs also helped to bring Bitcoin to where it is at now and this cant be ignored, the other reason is litecoin was never created to replace Bitcoin, and you have no reason to be afraid about your investment in Bitcoin, the last 3 days I was Bitcoin only going up in value we even surpassed the once gold value, Litecoin surpassed silver... all going as planned so quit bitching and do something useful for the community.
