You seem to underestimate just exactly how tethered Litecoin is to Bitcoin. Unless Bitcoin sinks due to an attack that Litecoin is immune to, Litecoin is going down with any systemic/sociopolitical/reputational Bitcoin failure, because it is Bitcoin with a different logo.

Actually on LTC/BTC today litecoin has actually gained on bitcoin. Meanwhile BTC is dropping like a stone and LTC is not.

So, my assertion that Litecoin's future is tethered to Bitcoin's is in error, because of one day's worth of market activity? (or one month's? or one year's?)

Like I said dude. Keep yapping. LTC is going to Gox whether you like it or not. LTC does not need BTC. BTC actually needs LTC for security as you've already stated in your OP.

Cheers
