Charlie Lee collects Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin as Bellwether Cryptos

While the world still considers Bitcoin as the campanilist and the poster for the cryptocurrency industry, Charlie Lee, the founder of Litecoin, differs slightly in opinion. According to Lee, it is not only Bitcoin, but also Ethereum and Litecoin have the distinction of being called "bellwether".

Bitcoin is Charlie Lee's inspiration

Charlie Lee is his recent tweet about Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin are the cryptos of Bellwether because according to him these are the only coins exchanged on all the main cryptographic and can be stored on each hardware portfolio. According to his tweet this is not possible with other coins because they are not quoted on all exchanges or their transfer to the hardware portfolio is not easy.

Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin are the cryptos from BELlweather. They are the only coins that are exchanged in all major cryptographic exchanges and can be stored on each hardware portfolio.

Buying and storing other coins safely is really a PITA. 😂

His tweet made some comments in which people suggested a variety of coins that meet the criteria that Charlie has listed to classify Bitcoin, Litecoin and Ethereum as bellwethers. While one user suggested DigiByteCoin and Dodgecoin, another user thought that Charlie Lee was banging Bitcoin Cash.

You forgot to include #DigiByte @DigiByteCoin, a traditional UTXO available on over 80 exchanges

The opinion of Charlie Lee seems correct according to his criteria, but it can still be said that Bitcoin would be the last arrived. Lee himself is a big Bitcoin fan. Recently in the Money 2020 conference, Charlie Lee revealed that Bitcoin inspired him to create Litecoin in 2011, while praising cryptocurrencies as one of the best forms of money ever created by man.

Speaking at this conference, Lee also talked about the coins for privacy and its importance. Specifically, he discussed the fungibility of various digital currencies. Charlie said that Bitcoin is not fungible because the origin of its transactions can be easily traced. Furthermore, when a person sends Bitcoin, he can see the amount of Bitcoin owned by the recipient. In comparison, smaller currencies such as Monero and Zcash have invested heavily to improve the privacy of their transactions. According to Lee, these plateaus are dropping the crypto industry.

While Lee has his reason for choosing Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin. It seems that Bitcoin still has the highest shelf for the bellwether. Replace Bitcoin will be slightly difficult from its 1st position in the encrypted world.
