I find it interesting that most of the
loud voices are big into litecoin when litecoin's current anti-dust relay/mining policy is far more aggressive than anything proposed for Bitcoin.
Litecoin, showing Bitcoin how it should be done yet again.
Please don't tell me you are serious. Go look at the current codebase.
Current? What are you talking about? Last real update was 10 months ago.

Now seriously, I think litecoin is more or less how an altcoin should be done, but not what Bitcoin should have been done.
Bitcoin is litecoins test coin. Litecoin will not get forked and break like bitcoin did.
Litecoin is the conservitive option here.
