    This is why need to think long term with #LitecoinThink of Amazon’s stock in 2008. Smart hands held that long term, did not sell the first time it had a pullback. Same idea with #Litecoin, but $LTC is hundreds of times more important and beneficial than Amazon

    Australians will soon be able to spend Litecoin via existing brick & mortar point-of-sales with the issuance of a new physical debit card. Australians won’t need to convert Litecoin into dirty fiat!
