Yes be wary of LTC, it hasnt got much going for it anymore and one of the pools has also been flickering around 50% has rate for a few days as well.


Can you explain?
Never really saw the point in LTC, but what's different now?

Well, besides from the sheer number of alts some of the new ones (drk,monero etc) have got real world useful features. LTC apart from its second mover advantage only has faster block times which is now included in a huge amounts of alts.

Whats the advantage of LTC over an alt thats faster and anon?

None! Dark's anonymity feature is getting better with updates too.


Almost. Dark coin is attempting to copy ring signature that is used by monero (my new favourite alt). Will be interesting if they can do it as it's not a copy paste integration.

Darkcoin is proper development (with real dev and actual coding), monero is bytecoin fork.

Jury is out, interesting to watch how this plays out.

So, what project are you managing at JP Morgan?  New JP Morgan coin?  The conflict of interest here is amusing.



I am not allowed to disclose that right now. Let´s just say, when you´ll hear about it Bitcoin will already have been hit Nagasaki style.

It doesn't take much to figure out what JP is doing.
What's low is trolling to downplay BTC...

here comes the boom
calm before the storm
hang onto your hats traders

drop in nearly all alts
sharp rise in btc
traders moving from alts to btc in anticipation of a huge rise
care to speculate

So wrong... if folks get out of alts, either nothing happens or BTC drops due to selling pressure. 2 options.
1) Get out of alt and keep BTC - no impact on BTC/USD
2) Get out of alt and sell BTC - increased sell pressure on BTC - likely drop BTC/USD

Tera's reaction when she gets back and sees the price:


Don't worry. She will manage to draw some lines on a chart that shows we're actually going down.

You made my day.
I was sick of her posts for the last several months.
