To be clear, I did not say it was a scam, Charlie Lee did.
Yes,I know. I have answered his tweet about it ;)
To some more experienced people, like yourself, taking the necessary steps was easy. For others, like myself, whom have never done this, it was confusing and difficult.
Be glad was with LTC and not with BTC and BCC. Many newbies lost a lot of money in the BCC fork of BTC. So many that I know a lot of people who do not care to claim the BTC golds or BTC diamonds at all... so yes, I know there is always problems if you jump into something newwithout having any idea how it works ... and cryptos is not just about money, is economics mixed with computer science and a bit of "life experience"inclusive, means, something that require some time and effort to learn like with everything else ;)
I think you get my point ... and about the exchange ... it is ok, is a new coin with a lot of people talking bad about it so can take a bit of time get it in some other exchanges ...
... but this is all pretty normal in crypto ;)
About the news ... all this "crypto-media" is very biased ... Coindesk,Cointelegraph and so on ... I trust what they say so much as I trust CNN or NBC or something like that, if you know what I mean. They are already part of media conglomerates so they are answering to "FIAT money" interest.
My advice (I am not an expert but ) just keep your coins quiet and wait. I hope the team behind LCC do the job that they had promessed.
Cheers!
