  • From FlyingCryptos:

    Another thing I promise to upkeep always, even when this page gets big. Whenever someone tags me in their own good analysis or successful trade. I will respond. Unlike these high-follower accounts that ignore people winning (me) and others. It’s sad. No community. $LTC #litecoin

  • From _prestwich:

    @nic__carter Okay, followup. I think the relationship isn’t reciprocal, as I can’t find the merge-mining code in litecoin’s codebase. Which means that we ought to expect LTC miners that _aren’t_ already merge mining to do one of:
    a) start merge mining
    b) switch to doge
    c) bleed cash
