Please don't tell me any of you unironically think bitcoin will be the global currency. All the techshit aside, it's impossible just because of its name. Really, just try to imagine things called fucking "Bitcoins" being universal currency. Crypto is the future but not Bitcoin

You're right, Litecoin is the future

Litecoin has better infrastructure, transaction time, mining, and developers

To begin with, the name "thaler" was used as an abbreviation of "Joachimsthaler", a coin type from the town of Joachimsthal in the Kingdom of Bohemia (now the Czech Republic), where there were silver mines and the first such coins were minted in 1518. This original Bohemian thaler carried a lion, from the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Bohemia, on its reverse side.

Etymologically, Thal (modern: Tal) is German for "valley" - a "thaler" is a person or a thing "from the valley". The Czech spelling was tolar; many varieties of the term are used in different languages. In the 1902 spelling reform, the German spelling was changed from Thal and Thaler to Tal and Taler, which however did not affect the spelling of "thaler" in English.

The later Dutch daalders also carried the picture of a lion, which gave them the name leeuwendaalder ("lion thaler").
