Litecoin a new safe haven from the Tether Bitfinex fiasco?
Ichimoku clouds show clear bullish bias on the LTC/BTC chart as people watch Bitcoin bleed. For those of you who don't know, there's been much speculation around shady rumors that Bitfinex has been using Tether to artificially pump Bitcoin prices for months.

I'm a long term believer in bitcoin and therefore welcome FUD like this as an opportunity. But in the meantime as of last Friday in anticipation of this I've allocated the majority of my funds into Ethereum and Litecoin which seem to be containing my losses as of right now.
