The trading pairs LTC/BT and NMC/BTC will be added tomorrow (12:00 UTC). We will also add LTC/USD and NMC/USD at a later stage. Our NMC and LTC reserves: LTC: 10000, start price: 0.032 NMC: 50000, start price: 0.065 Attention: Start price may be modified. We decided to add LTC because this we think this currency has reached a sufficient market cap and stable network.
