What is the connection between MIT countdown and Litecoins ???

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

There is a mysterious website ( http://litecoin.mit.edu/ ) with a countdown going on up to August 1st 2017, the exact date when Bitcoin will activate their BIP 148, the user activated soft fork! Am I the first one to notice this?

What do you guys think about this new move by a leading university. It seems like higher educational institutions are also tapping into cryptocurrencies and especially Litecoin technology.

MIT may be into Litecoins because of the recent failures of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoins and Ethereum to cope up with large number of transactions in their blockchains. At this moment Litecoin is hoovering at low 40s, will its price sky rocket in the coming months ??

Sort:  

Litecoin is undervalued. So, interesting!

Yes, every thing points in that direction.

My understanding was this counter (by the folks at MIT) is for the Lightning implementation being added to Litecoin. Yes? If anyone can confirm plz chime in... ;)

Lets see what will happen on August 1st!

True... going to be a wild ride between here & there too! ;)
