For sure. Litecoin was once the talk of the town. People have very short memories.

I agree. It does look very, very odd.

Thank you!

Yeah, looks like its about to happen. Looking very similar to Litecoin

I haven't heard of that coin. Can I get a couple of thousand esoterics for one of my eth? If so I'm in all the way.

I think that the first country to use Bitcoin as its base currency would soon become a pariah state. On the first day there would be buckets of evidence to show that it was developing WMDs and threatening

Didn't he also say something about a camel and an eye of a needle?

I agree and this all happens when cryptos are reaching all time highs....hhmmm

If a lot of major banks use Ripple for transfers then they will have to buy up huge volumes of coins and the market cap wont be like anything we have seen before with alt coins. If Ripple reaches $1 there

Agreed - across the world in 8 seconds verses several days by swift.

Russia seems to be planning a divestment from the Swift system of the West and develop their own Swift alternative possibly in partnership with China. I guess they should also look it developing links

In the short run down because it is coming off its bubble. A lot of people bought cheap and are now taking profits. In the long term I would say massively up because the banks are taking a large interest

Oh, oh I am hearing more and more stories like this. Cryptos are exploding and servers are getting overloaded. Luckily there are a lot of exchanges to choose from. The moral of the story must surely be:

If the net goes down for some time then cryptos are bound to be hit badly but all the servers and PCs wont be damaged and they will all be back online once the net returns. The effect should only be temporary.

Ethereum has certainly lost some of its steem :)

Nice clear explanation. Thank you for your knowledge.
