Pretty much the point of every crypto project. Imagine what the market would look like if for 10 years people hadn't sold their Bitcoins for shitcoins which the founders/ceo/scammer doesn't dump to cash out and become rich

Litecoin will unironically make it , it uses the same game theory than btc and is old enough and has not been taken serious for so much time than there is not whales there.

Once it reaches the point of having low inflation as btc will next year it will become insanely valuable too simply because it´s game theory.

Unironically, the Bitcoin space is led by successively diminishing speculation and non-expertise.

From smart contracts, to DAGs, to security tokens, etc., those are the keywords that try to spark recurring interest. At first (till 2016, say), you had very bad projects that were merely forks of bitcoin and not much was required to stand out. Litecoin was one of the coins that tried stuff that worked and Bitcoin eventually did them too - but of course it itself is useless (since years) given how the good parts have reflected back into Bitcoin and even newer projects.

>> No.13615758

Unironically one of the most solid holds in crypto second only to bitcoin. I really don’t understand the irrational hate it gets on here considering it always performs better than bitcoin when there’s a run.

In dollars. Trickier for me to swing an LTC/BTC pump since I haven't paid attention to the market in over a year and am rusty.

In satoshis LTC pumps hard but also falls hard just as quickly. I'm just saying I'm interested in watching it awhile before attempting to swing it for more BTC, but I don't believe in LTC anymore than its creator does.

Realistically speaking, it only did a 30x in 7 years. Ethereum did a 200x on the market and 600x since ICO.

I think if alt frenzy is to truly start up again like it did in 2017, then it's probably a safe assumption that most of the big meme coins from 2017 won't perform like they did previously. Aside from a few top coins like ltc and eth, I'd look for shinier coins that didn't even exist in the last bull run. Dumb crypto market investors like shininess.

The traced the demixed accounts, after seizing the addresses.

It wasn't that they demixed the account, to find the people. They found them due to linking their social media profile, to their darknet aliases.

So, mixing works for it's intended purpose. Noone has been tracked due to mixing, to my knowledge.

It's basically bitcoin but not managed by corrupt idiots with banking ties. It has a higher number of coins, faster transactions, newer features and it's just basically bitcoin++ while still retaining all the good things that made bitcoin potentially good money.

Guess what bitcoin and litecoin are missing? Fungibility. What's the number 1 priority of Charlie Lee right now, the man who quit his lucrative job "because he wanted to make sound money"? Fungibility.

The reasons why I believe LTC will outperform other altcoins
>single focus, it tries to be money and nothing else
>the people working on it are good people who love what they do and want to deliver a solid coin
>they have experience
>they understand money

I know I could probably earn more money trading shitcoins, but I don't want the stress. LTC is one of those coins that will guaranteed do well over time and you don't have to worry about your savings disappearing overnight. Yes it will swing, but the project will not be abandoned or turn out to be a scam.

It's one of the oldest coins too.
