Oh Ye of Little Faith...

And I was one of them. Up until last August I was an enthusiastic Litecoiner, posting in this sub and actively mining with my liddle biddy gridseeds. But...

Last August I started having problems with my miners gobbling power supplies. The price of LTC was stagnant then at around $4.80, so I basically said "screw it", shut the rig down and threw everything in a box. I didn't bother selling my 40 or so LTC as it seemed like too much effort for such a small amount.

Fast forward to late May of this year when I see an article online that said the price of BTC had exploded. I think to myself, "hmmm....I wonder if Litecoin went up too?"

Holy SHIT. It went up all right, like SIX TIMES. I couldn't get my rigs fired back up fast enough. So here I am, sitting pretty with 40 suddenly valuable LTC and mining another .1 a day.

So Charlie, I'm sorry. My faith wavered. I could probably have generated another 20 or so coins if I'd stuck with it, so I have paid the price for my moment of doubt.

Morals of the story? 1) Ya gotta have faith. 2) HODL. 3) Moon!
