because I am hoping for this https://bitcoinwisdom.com/litecoin/difficulty (click on YTD chart) only achievable if there is sustained interest, Litecoin won't experiment with anon or neither they care for much from our list like tor, so there are key differences, so right now 1K LTC is like what 11 BTC I think, and ain't stopping, actually it is a bargain price. good time to purchase LTC (impossible to mine) I am not cause I enter coins in early stage via hardware (no FIAT), because I see parallels here and + of course

one of ideas that would add to HPS (hash rate per second) and value would be idea of "merged mining" look what it has done to peseta and doge coin both received boost, merged mining with LTC might be possible too although a bit funny but...

merged mining with darkcoin would seriously catapult this to Saturn, but they won't allow it, merge mining "dark variety" is not yet happening it does not have too DARK stands on its own (also impossible to mine and its difficulty holds steady, also bargain in my opinion but I missed it at the early stage.. my loss...)
