I'm a fan of LTC as well. Hate commenting with a link to my post but you may want to research this and write about it. They are buying a whole town to make it a pot oasis. I guess this is one way to avoid covenant and restrictions.

From my understanding they already have it in the code where BTC & LTC could convert to one another easily which would make it easy to use LTC for smaller faster transactions. With LTC not trying to overtake BTC but work with them to create technical improvements and hide in the shadows it has serious potential. Right now, I only buy LTC with new funds because I feel it is the safer play for the rest of the year and still has a lot of upside.
