OP is referring to recent Litecoin pump and dump I think.
litecoin pump and dump..
who cares.
its temporary price drama.
plus
it was caused by twitter..
not asics or china or asicboost.
asics and asicboost has done nothing in the last 2 years
bu, classic, xt, and a dozen other implementations has dont nothing in the last 2 years
reddit and twitter "rumours" have been the attack, twisted as a victim card being waved at a situation that has never played out
