Charlie Lee keeps it real.
Says holding $BTC would’ve been more profitable than creating $LTC 😅
Gotta love his honesty — Charlie Lee, the founder of Litecoin, just admitted that from a purely financial standpoint, he’d have been better off just buying Bitcoin and chilling. No coding, no stress, just hodling in peace.
It’s a hilarious yet telling confession. $LTC was born in 2011 as the “silver to Bitcoin’s gold,” aiming for faster blocks and lower fees. But over time, $BTC kept dominating — in price, narrative, and adoption. Charlie, being the pragmatic guy he is, can laugh about it now… and honestly, that’s the spirit.
Still, let’s not forget — Litecoin played a huge role in crypto’s early evolution. It tested ideas before they hit Bitcoin (like SegWit and Lightning). So yeah, maybe not the richest path, but definitely one that shaped the ecosystem.
Respect, Charlie — few OGs can joke about their own place in crypto history with that much self-awareness.
