First tell us how many services for litecoin you are going to deploy by then. As its value is unlikely to be a function of time but, rather, of whether people actually sit down and make it useful instead of just sitting on a pile of it crowing about how valuable it is or is going to be.

One thing I see as a bad sign is one doesn't hear about it being able to support merged mining. So unlike bitcoin, which embraced merged mining, thus could become the solid pillar of stability / hashing power to its entire family of blockchains, litecoin is somewhat of a pariah, all the other coins using similar hashing (scrypt) being forced to compete with it instead of upholding it supporting in adding value and importance to it by adopting it as their primary chain in their merge... Nor does it talk about supporting being a secondary chain either, so even as a secondary chain in the event some other scrypt chain ends up attracting all the scrypt miners it is again out of luck...
