  • From realpauleverton:

    I’m still not over the fact that Litecoin was a random useless toy fork, was wash traded by someone inside Coinbase (Charlie?), listed by Brian Armstrong alongside only eth & btc, finally dumped at the top by Charlie onto retail. People should go to jail for this pump and dump.

  • From lite_hause:

    Lately I’ve had several life events sucking up my free time and haven’t been able to keep up on crypto as much.Saying that, it’s very difficult feeling bearish rn when the new supply of the money you hold gets reduced in half every 4 years. #Litecoin #Bitcoin

  • From MASTERBTCLTC:

    This week I am excited to add more litecoin to my portfolio. Will be converting a Simple IRA into my self-directed IRA & will buy & HODŁ litecoin in the retirement account. Already made the transfer request from the account…& of course will have to use two wires….lol
