Litecoin hard fork - comment from eToro
By FF Newsroom · 19 February 2018
Iqbal Gandham, UK Managing Director at eToro, one of Europe’s largest cryptocurrency retailers:
“Unlike with Bitcoin Cash, which was aimed at solving scaling problems, there appears to be little value in this fork for Litecoin. A split from the original coin does not seem to improve on the technology, nor does it offer any obvious benefit to the Litecoin platform.
“The reality is that a few users wish to create a fork which allows them to utilise older mining hardware. We’re minded to agree with Charlie Lee on this one, in urging caution around the fork.”
