"Litecoin founder Charlie Lee has sold all of his LTC"

I can't find article but 2-3 years ago I was reading interview with litecoin CEO who was saying that litecoin is in stagnation and there is noting more that can be done.

especially when it comes to micro-transactions, like, for example, when paying for a cup of coffee.

My post about BCH but it is correct for LTC too. Just replace BCH with LTC or any other "a little faster BTC"

Who needs "a little faster BTC" if we have instant TRON, BSC, NANO and thousands of others? Who the hell ... ever ... used BCH for day-to-day payments? No one accepts it. I pay in crypto almost every day. For day to day payments we use stable coins (to avoid calculating back and forward how much is xx$) together with fast chains (so BEP20 BUSD or TRC-20 USDT). I have never received a proposition for BCH payment. So BCH is useless as store of value AKA digital gold (to compete with BTC) - is not as secured - has 50 times lower hashrate and is too slow, volatile and illiquid to compete with others for day-to-day payments.

Once again:
BCH is worse than BTC as store of value and worse than other alts as day to day payment method. It makes it perfect solution for both? No it makes it useless solution.

1- You store your wealth in most secured, deflationary asset. Safe place. You can't say that about BCH. 2% on BTC hasrate can jump on BCH chain just for a moment to do 51% attack and go back to mine BTC. They both use same hardware.
2- you use cheap and fast chains for day to day payments. You use non volatile tokens for ease of use. You dont want to pay 2$ fee to buy 1$ worth cola. You dont want to open calculator each time you want to buy something. Its better to swap 1000$ once a month from BTC to TRC-20 USDT and use USDT all month without fees. And I'm saing that from my own experience. No one ever asked me to get his payment in BCH because its perfect solution for both store of value and day to day payment.

Agreed, on the surface litecoin does not look to be as bad compared to all the scam coins we have in the market but at the same time it does not do anything better than bitcoin, the slight faster confirmations that people are talking about is useless as you now need to wait for more blocks for the transaction to become completely irreversible and with the lightning network in bitcoin this makes this even more useless, and when we add that there is nothing in this market that is anywhere near bitcoin when it comes to being a store of value then all the things the OP said actually means nothing.
