    @mrpowek @elonmusk Litecoin is not affordable for everyone man…as u see I am a student…so I can’t afford a lite coin…but I can afford 100 of dogecoin 🙂…so yeah as @elonmusk says it’s people’s crypto….

  • From starborkgames:

    @litecoin @elonmusk TBH any company accepting doge and not litecoin right now just tells me they’re riding doge for short term marketing instead of embracing actual crypto adoption. Should be easy to start taking both if they really wanted to.

  • From shik_kaushik:
