[approved] Sythe Discord, add LTC

[President]

Problem:
LTC, a commonly used payment method, is missing from the current price display in Sythe General. Especially now that the two discords have been merged, I see only more reason to add LTC.

Current Rule(s):
No specific rule on which crypto prices are shown.

Change:
Add LTC to the displayed crypto prices, potentially replacing DOGE.

Why:
LTC is more relevant for the community, simplifying transactions.

Side-effects:
Improved user experience.

I 100% Agree I Believe that 90% of the community preferred currency is LTC.. Very nice suggestion

 

[Suedi]

Support, I don't see people using DOGE for any transactions daily.

 

Support ltc is the main currency today

Support as well, LTC is a popular currency and should be on the list.

 

While we are add it. incorporate Bitcoin Lightning Network payments

 

I would contend that LTC is currently the most widely used crypto in terms of transaction volume and number of transactions, not only on Sythe/OSRS markets but also on other forums and in different markets (exception being XMR markets, of course). This has been the case for several months.

Ricco previously stated that four bots could be used to display the price. If he has not reconsidered, we will need to replace one.
Based on the current display of DOGE, XRP, ETH, and BTC, XRP is arguably the least relevant, so I would propose replacing it with LTC.
DOGE is another potential candidate, but given that memcoins dominated the last market bubble, DOGE may warrant consideration.
ETH, while it may not be a widely used or traded cryptocurrency, its market capitalization makes it a relevant indicator.
BTC, with the largest market capitalization is a key price point to monitor.
XRP is currently the least relevant cryptocurrency in this market out of the other 4, but its relevance may shift in the future, potentially replacing DOGE as the dominant altcoin.

Bitcoin Lightning Network payments

As a donation method, or is this intended for a general audience? A typical user found destination tags and multichain too complex, so he opted for LTC. Layering BTC by opening and closing channels is not a realistic approach when there are more straightforward alternatives. Lightning is currently for maxies, and geeks.
However, if you create a very, very, very technically simple and visual guide and link it to everyone, then maybe.

Lightning network Bitcoin has low fees, and shows up instantly. Its like LTC but uses BTC. If you are collecting BTC for paymetns lightning network should be looked into as it would save staff time waiting on blockchain confirmations, and would streamline donations more,.

Sythe does not take btc as a donation method. Bond holders do, but they are free of course to take whatever method they like.

It could be used for the CRF. To my knowledge it's not a very popular method, however. It also requires a different kind of wallet. The ones you listed are all centralized wallets, something we don't want for the CRF.

Keep in mind this suggestion is regarding the Crypto Price bots in the Discord server. It is not related to donating to this website.

Upgrading to lightning would avoid the risk of transactions being sent getting stuck when sending regular BTC. LTC is a great alternative due to its speed

[Jibby Jibby]
