LTC is the largest threat to crypto. If it wins, everyone loses. Not even jokin' mang. It needs to crash. Not I want but we need.
If you want to see how irrational people who claim to be "rational" can be, just find yourself a litecoin user. They gain no benefit from using litecoin except providing some funding to BTC-E in ways of fees and give the public and investors a reason to be skeptical.
It used to me that we could laugh off queries about why someone couldn't just make up a new coin that would make theirs worth less. We'd laugh and say "because people aren't so stupid as to actively ruin their own investments!" Our laughter is a lot more nervous now. Turns out people are so stupid.
The only possible goal of litecoin is to make all cryptocurrency worth nothing in the long term.
You wanted your free market in currencies...now choke on it.
