Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
Anyone able to load Bitfinex.com ?

Works for me.

Its loading now, but during the dumps it went kaput.

On another note, LTC is holding like a man!


ltc always holds, the dump always comes later.

usually yes, but then again, usually the ltc/btc being sideways or slightly down while btc crashes, but now ltc/btc is on their own uptrend, the situation is rare
It's becuase the LTC rally is event-based  (btcchina, huobi)

oh, I can assure you that it is more than that, I bought my first Litecoins at $0.17 look how much they made me today Smiley and I am not selling yet, $100 till the end of this year seems very possible

Absent further developments, $50 seems like a good LTC sell point.... within the next 4-6 months....   Now on the other hand, LTC will probably tag along with BTC, once BTC starts to skyrocket.. so you may be correct about the $100 by the end of the year being greatly possible... but that $100 plus would likely only come about b/c BTC is going over $1500 or so at the same time..so an investor would likely NOT be better off in LTC rather than BTC.. even though in the short run.. next 2-3 months, there may be spurts in which it is better to be in LTC.. I do NOT claim to be any kind of expert.. just going based on the fact that LTC does NOT really add much of anything to BTC.. .and there are a lot of LTC replacements.. but there are NOT really any feasible BTC replacements.. at least NOT at the moment.

Looks like that 2k dip was a try to force panic sell but it ain't work ^^

We will see, as I stupidly bought at 685 I have to hodl through this.


We are at the same buy-in price point..... I am NOT too worried - even though I was expecting to be in the $750 to $850 price range about now-ish....

It is just a matter of time before we are back in the black.... anywhere between a day and 2 months... - hopefully, it will NOT take 2 months to get back in the black, though....  Huh

i'm thinking about buying more soon

don't wanna miss a good flash crash, I also think this downward trend is very temporary

Never thought ltc could go up to 0.03 btc. And I still can't imagine it ll go up to 0.04 but only because I missed the ltc train Cheesy

I guess it's hurting as a BTC holder double.
LTC rises and BTC is falling because people get into LTC.

Treasury's Cohen Warns Unregistered Bitcoin Exchanges
Says Government's Approach Focuses on Fostering Innovation, Transparency
By MICHAEL J. CASEY
March 18, 2014 9:26 a.m. ET

The Treasury Department will come after the many digital currency exchanges and administrators that haven't registered with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, the Department's top official for terrorism and financial intelligence said Tuesday.

However, David S. Cohen, Treasury Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence, stressed that the U.S. government's approach to regulating digital currencies such as bitcoin is driven by a desire to foster innovation and transparency in an industry that has significant potential.

We "know there are many virtual currency exchangers and administrators that have not registered with FinCEN and are not fulfilling their recordkeeping and reporting requirements," Mr. Cohen said, speaking at an event at Bloomberg News in New York. "Those that do not comply with these rules should understand that their actions will have consequences."

He said Treasury's approach to enforcing and devising rules for digital currency use "is rooted in two guiding principles: fostering innovation and ensuring transparency." He described this stance as "more measured and, I would submit, more sensible" than those of countries such as Russia, which sought to ban digital currencies outright.

"We place real value on the benefits of financial innovation," Mr. Cohen said. "Advancements in technology that allow entrepreneurs and businesses to innovate, grow and hire are crucial to our country's long-term economic success."

But he added, "we have a critical responsibility to protect the U.S. economy from illicit finance threats," which he cited as real concern with virtual currencies, one that threatened their long-term viability.

Mr. Cohen said the Treasury Department is working with other governments and multilateral institutions to seek to draft consistent rules for digital currencies around the world. He said the international Financial Action Task Force, which sets standards for anti-money-laundering and counterterrorist financing practices, will later this year release a paper that will update common definitions for digital currencies and lay out potential benefits and vulnerabilities for the sector.

He also said that the Treasury will include a representative from the digital currency sector to sit on its Bank Secrecy Act Advisory Board.

If I understand correctly, three hours from now Huobi will open LTC trading.  Their clients may be assuming that LTC will go up after that, so they are switching to Yuan now in order to buy LTC as cheaply as possible.

Possible and horrible scenario   Undecided
Actually just two hours from now, IIUC.

no need to speculate about that 2 k dump with those record low volumes @ 630 and no buy action.

that is what usually happens when nobody buys.

btw, this aint over. this is merely a bounce.

I am shorting like there is no tomorrow.

What bitcoin needs to really take off is an exchange where one can buy BTC and pay with bitcoin.  Grin
