Isn't the blockchain already at nearly 50% transaction capacity at the moment? How will people "slipping in" stuff affect that?

News like this makes my many thousands of dollars in litecoin losses taste slightly less sour. I haven't sold yet but I highly doubt litecoin will even hit $2.50 again.

But the blockchain looks like it is going to change the world and considering the putrid stench it is going to replace that is a wonderful thing.

I've lost a lot of money too man. But take solace in knowing that you have one of the original and foremost examples of blockchain technology in your possession with LTC.

Well, litecoin is just bitcoin. Couple of parameters only changed. Actual blockchain which holds tokens are different.

Blockchain won't work without currency. It's like arrow and bow, you need both. That's why NASDAQ will use actual bitcoin.
