>What is Litecoin?

From Wikipedia: Litecoin is a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency and open-source software project released under the MIT/X11 license. Litecoin was an early bitcoin spinoff or altcoin, starting in October 2011. In technical details, Litecoin is nearly identical to Bitcoin.

>>28776614
Here's the deal. First there was BTC. Then the community realized that the fees are too large for it to ever become mainstream currency. Then they created LTC for transactions and that's it. This is why all the later Bitcoin lites go to shit. Litecoin however remains. This is why BCH is worthless today compared to its ATH and why LTC is close to it's ATH. Kinda hard to see though the fog since all the other altcoins have active shilling teams.

I cannot think or comprehend of anything more cucked than selling your LTC. Honestly, think about it rationally. You are buying, minin', collecting and posting your LTC portfolio for at least some years solely so it can go and get ravaged by another shitcoin. All the hard work you put into your beautiful little portfolio- reading her cryptoscam rates at bedtime, making her go to the safe, making sure she had a healthy gain, protecting her, playing with her. All of it has one simple result: her gains are more enjoyable for the shitcoin shills that will eventually buy her before she moons.

Raised the perfect LTC stack? Great. Who benefits? If you're lucky, a random shitcoin who had nothing to do with the way she grew up, who you sell her for. You will cry for her mooning body every night. Pajeets gets the benefits of her precious and lite personality that came from the way you stacked her.

As a man who has sold his LTC stack, you are LITERALLY dedicating at least 3 years of your life simply to raise an LTC stack for another man to enjoy. It is the ULTIMATE AND FINAL cuck. Think about it logically.

They still make decent miners that have high entry costs and are NOT 110v (meaning not easy for US bros unless you wanna rewire a circuit in your house)

The old ones like the s9 are non-profitable now due to halvings and electricity costing so much on residential grids.

The apollo btc and ltc miners seem like the only sure all in one package (that can also be a node if you want) that won't absolutely ass rape my electric bill.

It's literally 2 years older than doge. It came 2 years before doge and it solved the transaction fee problem back then.

Doge is really a pnd scam coin which just got massively shilled as of late. If Musk was a channer instead of a redditor he would know that.

I'm a proud owner of 5.6 Litecoins, bought the dip last night and held strong through my first Sunday dip. Only regret is that I didn't sell when it hit 230.86 so I could reinvest when it hit $192, my DCA is still pinging me at a $-10 loss, but that's a far cry from the $-50 loss I would've had if I didn't buy in when it dived last night.

Theyre going to beyond 10x their money easily this cycle and by the time it gets around to next they will have 100xd or more.

one thing i've noticed with the new inflow of people, they tend to totally ignore the ALTS/BTC charts. there's so much alpha to be had there and there will be so much money left on the table because of that. Get mentally prepared for a $1k LTC if BTC holds that 50k range.
