you have a coin that will be profitable in the next few months and you have to be patient
His litecoin might have increased a lot since last month consider it has reached the yearly ATH but i doubt about when he was thinking to convert it into the XRP and he might face a big loss and you cans ee that how XRP has been dumping so hard. There's no reason to buy XRP. He was only wasting his money when he wanna try to convert it into XRP.
He could sell his litecoin for a big profit.
