I agree. People are morons are they don't even understand how the system works.
As long as there are no markets/stores/services that accept HVC, this is another shitcoin. The current price is based only on speculation/manipulation.
To me, LTC is just the same as any other altcoin.
I can't spend it anywhere that I want to spend and I can't cash it out either.
But as much more money has gone into LTC over a longer time, it's worth more.
Everyone not part of crypto who just heard of "bitcoin" has never heard of "litecoin".
(well, it's the case for hundreds of people around me at least. "What's Litecoin?")
For a coin to succeed, it's not just about its technical superiority.
It's about which coin has more money & people supporting it IMO.
