litecoin is good, but bitcoin is the best choice right now. I think coins other than bitcoin will experience waves and will not survive when there is turmoil in cryptocurrency.
I think more people are prefer bitcoin rather than litecoin, maybe because bitcoin is more popular in the market. But what they don't know is litecoin is also good, its just so happen that litecoin came up late in the market and do not gain the trust of many people so we cannot blame people if they choose bitcoin rather than litecoin.
