While I'm in the camp that's convinced that BTC is superior, if LTC's price increase is part of a pump and dump and Bitcoin isn't, what is the scenario that causes people to abandon LTC en masse? Is it just the security risks waitingforpizza mentioned rearing their ugly head some time down the road?
What will make people leave LTC en masse will be the next big alt chain. LTC is just the current flavor. I wouldn't even say that LTC's price increase is
specifically due to pump and dump, so much as more people are learning about Bitcoin, and thus litecoin. Only Litecoin is inferior in regards to the above and offers nothing over bitcoin.
There are people in this forum who know this and ARE trying to promote LTC as a means to enrich themselves, whereas when we promote Bitcoin we are promoting economic
freedom first and profiting second.
