sooner or later an alt crash will drive most to ltc as the reserve
In your wildest dreams.
The only reserve in this business is BTC. A reserve currency means that other currencies are "priced" in the reserve. Litecoin had a brief period where that happened on a couple of exchanges but it never took hold. It´s rapidly becoming ´just another alt´. Now that the 0.01 resistance is broken, don´t expect it to ever return.
We´re into the next phase of cryptos.

BTC is a horrible "Reserve" the only reserve is still the local fiat each individual uses to get "goods and services".
