2021:12 months = 12 roundsWe are in the 4th round. In most 12 round fight, the boxers are warmed up by the 4th. We have 8 rounds to go so don’t be telling me #Litecoin is lagging. Your coin came out too strong early bc of lack of experience. $LTC ATH APRIL.

@kingjimmyc Doge is a fork of litecoin… with all the hype around it I could definitely see it getting to a $1 one day but $100 will take a very long time if ever lollll…It’s a gambling coin, you could make a lot and you could loose a lot because it’s so volatile…
- From LitecoinForever:
A $24-million Basic Income Guaranteed program, which will be included in the city budget would provide $1,000 a month to 2,000 Los Angeles families for a year. There will be no obligation on how to spend the money, according to the mayor’s office. Accumulate Litecoin.
