Overview
- Posted Aug. 29, the official Litecoin account published a caustic “fun fact” that likened XRP to rotten eggs and mocked Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse as “Brad Garlicmouse.”
- XRP-aligned accounts hit back by resurfacing Charlie Lee’s 2017 sale of his LTC holdings, with some users saying they sold or would swap out of Litecoin in protest.
- Litecoin framed the post as part of an ongoing roast persona, noting prior jabs at Solana and even itself, and described the XRP reaction as outsized compared with earlier roasts.
- The feud reignited scrutiny of founder and team token sales, with on-chain references to recurring Ripple‑associated wallet disposals highlighted by analyst @zachxbt.
- Commenters floated potential legal complaints and touted policy access for XRP, but no public legal action has followed as the social-media dispute continues.
