1. The lightning network (beta) is released.
2. Abra launched derivative trading based on the Litecoin blockchain.
3. Litecoin 0.16 is released.
I believe these will have a huge impact on Litecoin.
I think they are just rumors. I'm not sure about the information. All is just FUD of whales to cheat the little traders like us. You need to include a news site about the issue that you mentioned to convince the reader. I'm waiting for your information link.
The info is accurate and true since it's from the creator of Litecoin.
