Charlie Lee is a smart guy, but he needs to "pump up" his creation. Litecoin is incredibly undervalued. It should ATLEAST be worth 250 bucks USD. its 4 times less scarce than BTC but overall its still pretty scarce…And its only role should be as a store of value, hence the saying "Litecoin is the silver to Bitcoins gold" When the volatility subsides in 10-20 years, then Litecoin can be used as more or less a stable currency.
enrich the founder hehe, Charlie did the same though lol
stay off the burgers Fat Boy
Litecoin: Fast Fair Cheap 24/7 since 2011 ?
Why talk to this fraud. He dumped all his LTC at a high price most of us will never see again. He exited soon as his coin got on Coinbase. He and Brian Armstrong did the same scam as Jordan Belford and Steve Madden. Lock him up just like Steve Madden. He did it to avoid a conflict of interest by doing…A CONFLICT OF INTEREST. LOL Not to mention that LTCs market maker on Coinbase is an outright crook.
Charlie is really a good guy.
Thanks for the knowledge
Litecoin is the right coin!
Smart man to sell all his LTC and stepping back helping decentralize LTC in a fairly undisruptive way. Eth is very centralized by Vitalic!
What was the mining difficulty when he first launched his coin? A rhetorical question.
Thanks for this real good info about what really happens in cripto. Fungability, Privacy – Mimble Wimble on litecoin.
Good to see you Charlie
Why put it on silver when you can put it on gold. Even Charlie lee said put it into Bitcoin first before you put it into Litecoin.
Charlie Lee is a joke. Ltc will go to zero along with every other shitcoin, btc included and he cashed out on y’all in 2017. SCAMMER! BitcoinSV is the real bitcoin and CSW is Satoshi Nakamoto. You guys are all stuck on 1mb block size for no reason other than to scam more people out of money.
