These are few independent developers and they have themselves mentioned that
"We're not associated or affiliated with Charlie Lee or any of the Litecoin team in any way; we are big fans though."

The only big purpose Litecoin cash serves is that they are using the Bitcoin mining hardware which has become of no use since Bitcoin network has grown to many folds.They have found their niche and who knows if it works.
All we can do right now is claim our free money!!

What do you guys think? Is it something going to be like Bitcoin Cash or is just a trick of a few crazy developers craving for quick money.

Do you hold Litecoin yourself?
If you do, are you planning on selling? Or are you a hodler?

I have a few litecoins and I am more of hodler than a trader. Tried buying and selling for a few times but that only resulted in overall loss.

Cool! Thanks for this info...I'll hold onto my LTC a lil' longer then. Do I need to have my LTC sitting on a certain exchange?
