    Yeah I was on an exchange, wondered what was going on, It's a little to big of a jump to be much i think. Hammered price of LTC though.

    So what this means I can use BTC for Xbox live stuff? That is major integration, can pay for Foxtel, Netflix all sorts of things.

    Golightly... Do you have LTC and other Altcoins? I got burned pretty bad, I jumped on the blackcoin pump at like 80k satoshis, put about 1.5BTC in and went to sleep thinking I would have 10btc in the morning, I woke up and it had already crashed... Ended up selling for 13k months later (its down at 7k now). I had never traded in my life and that was my 1st one... Massive loss!

    I bought a few Ether at the presale and I'm going to sell them as soon as the genesis block because I think I will make a quick buck but apart from that, I can't stand ALT coins after what happened to me with the Blackcoins...

    I went through more Alts in the madness than i can remember, some great some terrible, all good fun.
    Now though only Alt is LTC because i think it's low priced atm

    Cryptocurrencies kind-of undermine the belief in PM's. At least partially.

    Bitcoin is still sub-350 $, a bit sluggish - I can't forget it was above 1,000 $.

    They're an excellent complement to the metals.

    Bitcoin was the first thing I have ever invested in, Once I felt like I had enough I started looking around for something else to invest in and I picked metals, I have only been stacking metals for a few months but I have already got quite a few ounces of gold and over a KG of silver and thats all because of Bitcoin!

    I never would have considered investing in metals before I got into bitcoin, Bitcoin teaches people that Fiat is a dirty word and I think that a lot more people will start throwing money into physical metals after they are happy that they have accumulated enough Bitcoin.
