			Personally, I think LTC (and others) are bubbles waiting to pop. I can still mine more than a LTC per day with 2 x 7950. That's quite a crazy ROI.

What makes you think its going to pop.  Seems like alot of people are selling BTC and getting LTC driving the price up.  I can see it hitting $25

			LTC is a bubble, I'm just glad I am able to re-sell all the LTC I bought with BTC a long time ago when the rates weren't any good (and there was no way to tell it would go up or down)

			FML was 8 bucks on the weekend when I was starting to research this stuff. Now it's almost 22 dollars. Couldn't find a good way to pay on BTC-E. Gonna try EgoPay tmr because the website reached it's limit        |

			The problem with LTC right at this moment is that there is nothing you can really do with it.. At least Bitcoin has stuff you can buy, etc. Bitcoin might still be 80-90% speculation, but Litecoin is 99%   
It will crash, but I think it will go back up again. Eventually it will probably be the 'silver' to BTC's 'gold'. Now that it has finally gained some recognition, people will start creating services for it.

But with such shitty access to it I put it off... and sighed when it hit 10, and then 13 last night and 20 today.  
I finally got off my ass and paid a few bucks extra and bought a bitcoin @ $1050.  
Gonna wait for the big LTC drop (which had a small heart attack a few hours ago $21 ---> 18 for a few minutes)   
My goal is to get it at $15 and just hold out.

But I set a buy order this morning at $17 and it ended up buying it for me.

			Holy shit... seriously, fuck me sideways. LTC @ $28.45. Looks like I was was wrong about the $25 peak. I still believe there will be a hard crash.   
 I think I will go purchase another GPU.

			Well, fuck me sideways. China seems to have taken a liking to virtual currency.   
Been doing some reading on LTC. Seems like the price is running on hopes and dreams at the moment, but there are still potential for it to blow up and past 100/LTC. These events are BTC-e and mtgox accepting LTC, and a good mobile LTC wallet.
