I'm not OP but time in market beats timing the market. If there's a chance LTC goes 10x in the next few days or weeks or months, better to have bought now than trying to wait for a dip that may or may not arrive.
If there is one thing the last 8 years have shown us - it doesn't matter at what point you get in.
But Litecoin in particular has had crazy corrections in the past. There are also many LTC hodlers from when it was pennies on the dollar who will now want out.
Litecoin has more potential for pumping though because it can be pitched as a better Bitcoin, which will cause a mania in the masses who missed out on Bitcoin the first time, leading to a much more powerful rise in price in a shorter period of time.
