Topic: User Luke-Jr claims Litecoin is a &quot;quick pump and dump scheme&quot; on Wikipedia - page 5. (Read 8267 times)

Why would Litecoin holders thank him? if anything he kept Litecoin from taking over, when Bitcoin hardforked. If the Bitcoin hardfork fiasco lasted a lot longer, Litecoin would have a chance to become the dominant currency.

Do you understand the word "if"?

He is the reason that you are still wealthy if any of you were smart enough to buy BTC at low prices!

Why should anyone thank him for being a selfish douche? (I'm not saying he is one but it seems like that's what's being reported here) He is invested in BTC and faced with the possibility of his investment going down the drain he unintentionally helped everyone else invested in BTC by trying to save his own ass (it would be hard for him to increase the value of his bitcoins while everyone elses bitcoins somehow decreased in value).

If he really is going around spreading lies about litecoin and such just to line his own pockets (at the expense of litecoin miners) he doesn't sound like much of a philanthropist deserving of thanks to me.

Would you say the same about Satoshi? Do you even know who Satoshi is? Do you know who luke-jr is?

some of us know luke jr pretty well. this conversation is not about satoshi

Luke is right. The only reason people buy it is to make a profit off how volatile it is. Don't kid yourself in thinking it is as good as bitcoin. Think in terms of all of the COD clones, did they ever actually succeed in being the new popular game? No, because they brought nothing substantially new to the table. COD always won over the market, just like bitcoin does and will.

BTC = COD
LTC = Rainbow 6
FTC = Battlefield

All brilliant Games in there own right!

Edit: Also Killzone = PS3 only But a brilliant game IMO.

The god thing is: No one cares what you think. Or what I think. The market has no emotions, but is always right.

Indeed. Don't get me wrong, I love litecoin. But I love it because ive made tons off it, not because I think it'll be the successor or rival of bitcoin.

Silver is not the successor or rival of gold either.

When Bitcoin was forked this litecoin user was still able to move crypto.

LTC is very much needed, will it kill BTC no? But BTC might kill itself.

On wikipedia's discussion page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Litecoin#Should_a_pump_and_dump_scheme_really_get_a_wikipedia_page.3F

He's spreading lies about litecoin all over the internet, calling it a scam.

If you want to know why he does it, connect the dots:

http://mineforeman.com/2013/04/02/luke-jr-shows-off-the-first-butterly-labs-asic-bitcoin-miner/

Luke-jr may be wrong on Litecoins but you should all respect him and not badmouth him (Radacoin). Have you read the #bitcoin-dev log from the March 11/March 12 hardfork event?? Luke-jr was the guy taking the lead on the solution. He is the reason that you are still wealthy if any of you were smart enough to buy BTC at low prices! A thank you would be in order.

I'd have thought it was a litecoin miner who was upset about all these bitcoin GPU miners abandoning ship in the face of ASICS and killing his litecoin difficulty trying to scare them back from whence they came Grin
