Title: Accept Litecoin (Betcha These Attacks Stop If You Do)
Post by: ekoostik on May 04, 2013, 09:53 pm
I am not a fan of Litecoin. That said, I am pretty well convinced they are the ones behind these attacks. If you accepted LTCs, they would have no reason to attack SR or MtGox, and the world will be peaceful once again.

But lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of people have reason to attack SR.
Care to explain?

Uhhhhhh...and what if the attacks don't stop?  ?? hah

-On a side note, I would like to see Litecoins as an accepted currency on SR.  As they should be.

I think the future of crypto-currency consists of more than just one type , we should accept Litecoin!

A little disheartening to think people would DOS silkroad for not accepting it , pure selfishness and greed right there.

Although Its much more likely its a competitor or enemy of silkroad behind the attacks..

I think most of us would welcome LTC as an addition to SR, hey, maybe even DPR will give us an official heads up so we can all stock up and buy em on the cheap before they get added and the price skyrockets haha.

I don't think the absence of LTC has any relationship with the attacks but LTC is definetely something i support as of now.

Dunno about them being linked to attacks... That's sort of a reach. As others said, many, many people have reasons to DDOS the Road. DPR uses these attacks as opportunities to improve site security and stability. We knew that there would be opposition and this forced growth is just part of it!

On a more related note, LTC would definitely be a great addition to the site. See ya down the road.
