I'd say NO.

There were only 11,940 litecoin transactions in the last 24 hours. See this chart:

https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/litecoin-transactions.html

Litecoin hasn't even reached the 20,000 transactions they managed in 2014, let alone take some of the overflow from bitcoin.


Try reading the thread and applying logic next time, because you (like everyone else saying how "LTC has no transaction volume" or "LTC doesn't need segwit") aren't using their brains.

Try to think in long term, not now.

If things continue as they are, then who has the advantage, BTC or LTC?

You expect people to continue making low value transactions in the BTC blockchain?

People will get increasingly tired and then you'll see LTC transaction volume go up.

Also, you get segwit before you need it, or you end up like BTC. You have to get those things rolled as quick as possible. The more time passes, the harder consensus becomes in general.

So LTC did its homework, and it's ready now for mainstream global adoption.

BTC? nope.
