As the crypto space starts expanding, one thing I think is clear is that bitcoin really will become the “gold 2.0” and less of a quick-change currency, while inheriting all the hassles of “lugging” around physical gold (i.e. high fees).
Litecoin, as I understand it, was made to be less scarce, but faster, or less fees…kind of like how silver counterparts to gold these days.
I never buy btc, the transaction fees are rediculous. But it holds its damn value. Ltc is a lot faster, cheaper to transact, and easier to slowly stack than btc.
I think the comparison to gold/silver is somewhat accurate to an extent.
