Well... IMO, Bitcoiners are inherently more likely to use Litecoins because they are already well versed in the way that crypto currencies work, making them a prime target market for the expansion of the Litecoin community. The know how to make a paper wallet, they know how to mine, they know how to exchange, etc. They would be able to fit right in immediately.

And of course I'd like to see many new Litecoiners from the general public as well, but to just brush off the largest user base of crypto currencies (Bitcoiners) is a bit absurd.

I agree

no one NEEDS anything but why the fuck not act like fucking grown ups for once and stop fighting over whose's fucking dick is bigger and collaborate towards something beneficial for everyone ?

Simran = the new CoinHunter

There's nothing suspicious about a chain 7 blocks long suddenly appearing on the network after an hour, with nobody else reporting it until then?  And in the meantime blocks are being relayed every ten minutes by other miners?  Really?

Lol, damn, wish I wouldn't have missed this one.

Litecoin isn't asking anything.  Litecoin just is and is holding value well, on it's own, at least compared to btc and actually gaining ltc/btc wise.

ITT, I see a well known bitcoiner demanding something before he does anything for ltc (which is nothing new).  Too bad for him.  LTC is going to the upper leagues without his demands being met.  It's btc that needs ltc.  Never forget that.

We don't need or want him here.  His proposal benefits BTC only making LTC immediately less than BTC.  Period.

Any serious discussion of the topic ought to go into a new thread.  My OP has been heard loud and clear by those to whom it would matter.  If the opinion of most Litecoiners (I doubt this) is that the idea really makes a "bitch" out of LTC, then the idea is DOA I suppose.  I don't mean to come to Litecoiners and dump on Litecoins (freedom means freedom to create and promote your own alt coins after all, my rightful prerogative is limited to not owning any) so... unless someone brings up the topic, I'm outta here.  In view of the most recent posts, I'm locking the thread, and I think you can appreciate why.
