Charlie Lee has always been one of the more intriguing cryptocurrency developers to follow on social media. His involvement with Litecoin has been well documented, and Lee has also been posting some interesting comments regarding other altcoins. Unsurprisingly, some of his recent comments have irritated a lot of Litecoin supporters, as they feel Lee is turning his back on the currency he created.

Charlie Lee Pays Respect to Nano

In the world of cryptocurrency, any semi-positive remark regarding any cryptocurrency project will automatically make you a shill in the eyes of others. It is diffcult to be positive about any currency that isn’t Bitcoin these days, as the social media backlash will not be fun to deal with.

The same applies to most altcoins’ community members, who believe their coin is better than Bitcoin in every way. It seems people don’t want any positive remarks posted on social media about currencies they don’t own. This is not a positive trend for this industry, as it will eventually destroy cryptocurrencies from within.

Whether or not this tweet will have any lasting negative impact on Lee, Litecoin, or Nano remains to be determined. It is evident that Lee wanted to be as transparent as possible in discussing a currency other than
