Could LTC conceivably go to $1000.00 if segwit were to activate in 2 weeks, and I mean in a fairly short period of time.


If not $1000.00, what could LTC go to???


Would love to hear from you guys/gals

Lol never in 30 years. Currently price of litecoin is just 1% of the amount you predicting. Maybe 100$ would be a better target but 1000$ is too much. Currently 50 million ltc is circulating and max supply is 84 million so even if there is any chance for it to reach 1k sufficient supply wouldn't be left.

lol, yes, $1000.00 sounds high, I would be happy if it goes to $100.00. Oh god, that would be great. Let SegWit happen in 2 weeks.

$100 is difficult value for litecoin, but ltc is no need segwit in my opinion, the hype of segwit just give a short fomo for ltc itself. I think your speculation looks non sense.

I also can't see LTC going to 1k but I can see it at least going to $100 in the near future but for a low end estimate if segwit were to activate in 2 weeks I think we could see $50 at least. I have been holding what I have left waiting for the price to rise and I am hoping to see at least $50 and if it gets to $100 it would be even better for us holding LTC.

Lol I think $50 would be possible but $1,000 is a stretch.

Even if something is that good it won't bring a coin's value to 100x of its current value overnight.

I wish though, I wish.

SegWit adoption on LTC is not for block size increase. It will allow coders to add many other features to LTC. Maybe $100.00 in the short term, may not happen, but it's not inconceivable for LTC to get there.

"Never" is a long time.  Could litecoin go to $1000 within a year?  Probably not, but crazier, stupider, more unpredictable things have happened in the world of crypto.  So yeah, never say never.  Imagine asking people in 2009 if bitcoin would ever be at $1300.  They might have laughed you out of the nerd fraternity, but here we are in 2017 and we hit that mark.  Litecoin definitely has some advantages over bitcoin, so you just never know.

Agreed, I think that segwit can add value proposition to ltc because of the feature sets that coders can implement if segwit were to be implemented.

We got to be honest, that's not going to happen. Speculating is fair enough, but that would be pure madness.
I see LTC going high to a certain extent, maybe around $100, but that's it.

Well it seems most of on here can agree that LTC is likely to reach $50 to $100 in the near future but is a long way off the 1k price range. Even at $50 I think it's a great price for a coin that looked dead for a while but has now been brought back to life thanks to the segwit news.

If enough people want to buy hold use litecoin it can be possible but i don't see that happen to be honest.

Never, if LTC could go to $1000.00 for each LTC and imagine how much Bitcoin's price on that event? yet it's possible to LTC goes to $100 this year.

Yes, speculating is okay but we shouldn't make nonsense thread to spread the FUD.

I wish it could reach 1k but forget it, I think after SegWit 30usd is realistic maybe more with bigger hype (I hope  ;D)

LTC's best case scenario is to be worth 0.01 BTC, and is getting there.
LTC will get to $1000 when BTC gets to $100,000. I don't see that happening soon.

Litecoin is better than bitcoin. Low fees, fast transaction. Why mess with clunky old bitcoin? To send bitcoin I change it into litecoin first and send that.

you're simply nuts ,

Your theory is already false because btc hit 1200 again but ltc didin't go to 100$.

No, of course Litecoin could not go to 1000$, especially one LTC is only worth 10$ now. You are playing with the news, and will most of the time get fooled by the whales. Huh, why SegWit would make Litecoin suddenly worth one hundred times its current value ? There is no reason, and even if a whale and an association of fools could create a sympathic pump, it will simply never but never go to 1000$.

LTC highest value was 50 dollars during the pump in 2013. There are many altcoins now compared to 4 years ago. It would be a miracle if LTC can go above 20 dollars as the supply of coin is increasing and demand is lower than the supply. LTC is rising now because of SegWit. After that, its price will drop below 10 dollars again.

I think that talking about the supply is no longer very revelant nowadays, at least for big established crypto-currencies. Take Ethereum for exemple : its supply is infinite, growing nicely each day, but yet it is the most valuable crypto-currency out there. And I definitely think Litecoin has a great potential, not to reach 1000$ of course, but maybe to reach 15$ in a long-term point of view.

I need to repeat part where Pharmacist talking about bitcoin in 2009, wbk would say that bitcoin can worth this much. I will agree that we never know, and Litecoin can make something more, at least we need to be open for this to happen.
Even if Litecoin go x5 this price, that makes Litecoin a good investment at the moment. I have some and I think I will by more, litecoin is better then some more expensive coins, Litecoin deserve to cost more.

everyone who's riding with ltc only trying to get little profits its been discuss here that ltc can reach 100$ but with 1k$ its really
a long journey but as the other mate mention never to say never while you are still inside crypto things happen and its hard to
make a statement period.

as much as i like to say it will go to the moon and 10000 USD (since i am obviously holding a lot of litecoin now because of my accumulations) but i can not lie.
i seriously doubt if litecoin price can go anywhere higher than $100 in long term (meaning a year for example)
in short term we can see a big rise, a rise to $50 is even simple but that would be a bubble because simply put there is no demand out of nowhere! in long term we can go there and stabilize but for now i am expecting a big rally and then some dumps.

and we will see how things go after that.

if segwit gets activated litecoin may rise to $30-50 each. $1000? probably not but who knows crazy things can and happen fast in crypto. it'll be interesting to see what happens in the next few weeks  8)

my prediction litecoin price only incraese to 100 dollar
can incraese to 1000 dollar if bitcoin not growth and many problem
and then litecoin can replace bitcoin to number one crypto curency

It is possible to get to that level but I think it is not realistic for litecoin, if we can get to $100 then maye $1000 would not seem so far fetched but with the ATH of about $50 I can't see it happening anytime soon.

Due to so many scamcoins, I see LTC going up to +$20 soon. But I do not think that it will go to +$1000, and the first reason is the market cap. It would make LTC go past BTC, which I see impossible as Bitcoin was the first. Why would an Altcoin ever be better than Bitcoin, if this was the original idea?

The group behind Litecoin are trying to do a lot right now to increase the value of the coin. I don't believe it's a scam coin, however, if it can gain wider acceptance, from vendors, and governments, because of the technologies that segwit will bring to bear (if adopted), then I see it going way up in value.

The litecoin community appears to be willing to work together, at least more so than The Bitcoin Community.

Did you Realize if OP has trapped on delusional about the big price for litecoin? Some years passed and ETH is more superior than LTC.
That's a fact. But if you can tell me about a new innovation of LTC? Clone of bitcoin will never worth a lot.
Until a lot of people are using it to be the off-chain transaction method to avoid the freaking snail bitcoin chain

$15.00??? Where do you come up with such a clunky figure??? As I write this it's at $12.78. Yesterday it was at $11.70, and we are still approximately 10 days from SegWit activation. It most certainly is going to go past $15.00. The market cap is at $640 million, up $70 million in a couple of days.

I believe if segwit activates, and it does not on Bitcoin, then Litecoin can become an investment vehicle. I think one thing that is attracting investors also, is how much tighter of a community the litecoin community is. If they can get themselves together now, before the value rises too much, they can set up the currency for the future, and this could be great for wider adoption. Regardless how torn apart the Bitcoin community is however, I wonder whether they are stupid enough to let Litecoin steal its thunder?

I just hope that if or when segwit is activated, it doesn't become a pump and dump. I would love to be able to invest long term. Regardless, I bought all I had available to buy in LTC ($690.00) worth if it goes to just $35, I will be very happy. :)

Well, it looks like it just started its way to that goal

I see LTC is experiencing a high rise today 25% skitar. it's hard to see LTC up to $ 1000, but it can all happen in this world even though it's difficult.

I like litecoin for be used as payment method through blockchain technology.Actually he has a lower fee than bitcoin . Somewhere at $0.1-0.40 per transaction with under 3 minutes confirmation on blockchain . Someone should update bitcoin because it has a big mining fee for sending . Surely litecoin will grow up somewhere at 20.000$ in few years we just need patience :) #STILL#HODLING

LTC will go into thousands, maybe this year itself. There have been multiple rumors of its getting
accepted as payment method on top websites so any of those news will cause a big rise in it. Also,
it tracks and outperforms bitcoin so bitcoin going up big should cause a big rally in litecoin too.

Anyone knows exact launch date?

https://www.litepay.us/

Depends how well received their pay with LTC becomes.

Well I would be the very first to be happy if that happens. I only have less than 10 coins, too shy to say exactly how much but I bought them at a very good price last year so even 1k is a huge, huge return for me. The rumors are probably going to be for sure since LTC dev Charlie Lee personally embarked on a big marketing move and his reputation will ensure Litecoin will make it big. Not sure if 2018 is the year for 1k, but a return to ATH is surely on the cards.

my new prevision for LTC is that will achie mx 800 USD this year.

After recent events, I don't think LTC could pass even $500.

The most possible new coin in top 10 to pass the 1K barrier is NEO. Other doesn't have any perspective to do it.

it is extremely hard for litecoin to go to $1000. However, if bitcoin can hit $20000 in 2017, why do we need to stop dreaming about the big price of litecoin in the future? No one expects that eterheum will hit $1000 when it was created but now, ethereum is just like a second king in the cryptocurrency community. Litecoin is good and I believe that in this year, it will grow strongly

The most optimistic and in the same time realistic scenario would be x10 less then you predict.
Circulating supply is currently 84 million. So if they would burn to even a half of the amount it's still not possible.

LTC is a great coin. It has a potential to goes higher and higher, but for me the $1000.00 is very high to achieve. It can be possibly reach up to $100.00 or up to $500.00. We cannot tel actually because we cannot predict the movement of a certain coin and to what price it would achieve.

It could goes to $1000 sometimes this year maybe in juni or q3 of 2018 before its going down. We will see flippening from bitcoin to top 10 altcoin in this year since bitcoin transaction fee is still taking very high. And litecoin development also still running and shows improvement in network performance and the fees also reduced at new update now.

I really disliked litecoin when I first heard about charlie lee's pump and dump later. But coin itself is quite nice working coin and its ok to be added in every portfolio. $1000 is possible if market cap grows for every coins.

r there any ico using litecoins if not . it would be hard. unless they have new things i dont kno about

Sure. LTC can go to 1000. If BTC can go to 20k, and if as many, you believe BTC can go to 50k or more, then LTC can just as easily go to 1000. 50k for BTC would be a factor 2.5 increase. Take the ATH price of LTC, multiply that by 2.5 and it's very close to 1000.

It is possible, if btc goes to 50K then ltc can easily achieve that price even if it remains around its current levels in terms of btc price.

Now it looks unlikely but I am confident that as soon as the price of bitcoin will go up LTC will start to go up as well. LTC always looks at its older brother.

No chance. Crypto is over. G20 summit will prove it.

I think LTC has the potential to grow to $1000. It is not unreasonable to assume a 6x growth, given it's current value (>150$), but it depends on where the cryptocurrency market will be at the end of the year.

To reach this level, he will not have enough time or resources. It seems to me that his limit is half the amount you proposed, and then this is with the best hands.

Litecoin holders are very strong in the market of altcoins, there is no more strong investors. Litecoin is reliability and confidence. Fast and cheap translations.

I think LTC is likely to reach $ 1000 this year as LTC is a new choice for investors and the demand for LTC will increase dramatically this year. For me just waiting for the BTC price to reach $ 30,000 then this will happen and only a matter of time to be able to see this price.

No, I don't think it will hit 500$ anytime soon. Charlie Lee really made his point back there show how much LTC was and what it will never be. Investors come to sense and so they leaving LTC, nothing more.

1000$ is look like huge I think it will be possible after minimum 2 years.Last year in December LTC touched more than 300$ but now big falling down 158$ showing in coinmarketcap but of course LTC is future bright coin without confusion I predict it will be hit 600$+ in this year.

I think that Lite will reach $ 1000 by the end of this year. As we know, they launched the Litepay system a kind of hybrid lightning network, which will allow companies and businesses to accept LTC for payment. Very fast transactions will take place. British customers will be able to pay for products and services in dollars, without paying transaction fees. We can see $500 in june already.

It would be an impossible thing to see, Charlie lee incident make so many people think for twice to invest in the litecoin. my guess the litecoin will gain more value but it will not doubled as soon as possible.
So many coin look so difficult to gain green candle in this time. Litecoin has used to be the alternative payment or transaction if the bitcoin gets bloated. And no more. Honestly litecoin is lack of future development about the blockchain itself.

Still, there is a big speculation in peoples mind because Lite coin owner sells all his Litecoin in the market. This makes lot of panics because the owner will not start developing further improvement about litecoin. Maybe it depends whether it will reach the 1000$ or not still in dilemma.

Probably not, based on current conditions. Charlie Lee selling his coins is the ultimate loss of faith.

However, he may have just sold them in anticipation of the current market crash. Charlie Lee could be buying more LTC at discount prices as we speak. If so, then we have a different case on our hands.

LTC was increase on the previous days but for now it is not enough to reach $1000. I think it takes years before meets that amount, but don't worry regarding that matter because whether we like it or not. Time will comes and this coin touches that amount in the right time, so I suggest to hold their amount until it happen.

I dont see that litecoin will reach $1000 price now is not that huge. We cannot say when it will hit but litecoin though is existing in the market. It is hard to reach the market on that amount maybe it takes time but I cannot say it will soon.

Well litecoin is an established coin and I am sure it will rech $1,000. The big question is how long it will take for litecoin to reach that price. If you check the price movement it is upwards but in a small rise. Possibly it make take years for litecoin to reach that price.

Yes, you are right in the short period it is not possible to reach the 1000$ mark. When compared to Bitcoin, Litecoin price went up very quickly and has gained a profit more than 1400% in the last pump. So it might take another two years to reach 1000$ mark.

Have you read the litecoin fork now in the announcement page it's going to happen this February 19 you notive litecoin price is going up slowly but with bitcoin's price going down it is not showing better get a hold of litecoin they are giving 10 times of that litecoin fork.

Nope, there is NO Litecoin fork. It's a scam, don't fall for it. Check what Charlie Lee has to say about it: https://twitter.com/SatoshiLite/status/960197866546282496

litecoin is a good coin and has a potential,good platform and great team behind..but it can hit $1000 for the next couple of years,unless the managemet will release new updates so theres a new thing for the users to check out,its been a long whe this speculation was asked but until now nothing changed.thats why my litecoin still sleeping in my portfolio and waiting for the growth of this coin

It could be, but I do not know what will happen in the future with Litecoin. I hope Litecoin will go high like a rocket and landing in the moon just like Bitcoin and Ethereum. I want to invest in Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin at the same time. I want to improve all my earnings not just in one bucket but in various sectors of cryptocurrency. I also want to experience various price change in various cryptocurrencies so that I can experience various profit too. If I am lucky, I will have profit from some strange Altcoin that will give me more higher profit than Bitcoin can give me.

Litecoin is one of the powerful crypto coin that the world is aware of. One of the survivor of all kind of times. I appreciate its presence in the portfolio of holder. Now that no one can predict the future but I believe that Litecoin can grow up to the given value by the end of this year. As far as bitcoin and Ethereum are concerned, one is king of the whole digital currency world and the other is the king of alternative coins. Litecoin cannot compete Bitcoin for sure.

LTC to $1,000 by 2020 is a very conservative estimate IMO,

I believe this will happen! I use LTC a hell of alot more than i do BTC too

all is posible my friend

He doesn't like it...but how can he stop them?

I really do not think so. LTC is just a copy of bitcoin and people prefer the original version. I would focus much more on ether on which all the token of the ico are based

In the world of cryptocurrency all is possible ;D

I personally learned to love Litecoin when I started trading between exchanges. Fast speeds, low transaction fees.. what's not to love? The kicker for me is that it's already part of an established trading pair in many exchanges. I'm HODL some Litecoin and it's still my preferred go-to for when I want to make a transfer between exchanges.

Hey man, pay attention on DogeCoin if you use Litecoin just for transfer crypto between exchanges. It is also fast but it is much cheaper. Stratis is also good choice for this purpose.

1000 dollars for ltc is very much in my opinion, it would have the same value as ethereum and it does not make sense, only if the market pumps a lot and coin like ether go to 2000 it could happen, for me even 400-500 dollars would be a good price

Yeah, I used Dogecoin for transfers too, loved it when it was in the 18-21 satoshi range. But the thing is, with DogeCoin, I have to buy on an exchange (ie, transaction fee), and then in most cases after sending it to another exchange, I have to sell it off for either BTC, ETH or LTC in order to trade. So more transaction fees there. And Binance, which I use frequently, doesn't trade DogeCoin.
I didn't know about Stratis, though. Thank you for the tip, will definitely check it out (and HODL my remaining LTC  ;D )

There are so many coins that even better than litecoin. XRB and IOTA offer zero transaction fees for the actual payment while at the same time litecoin still cost some cheap fees from the sender. It looks so difficult to litecoin reach its range considered about litecoin in competition with so many cryptos that implemented better scalability than litecoin itself. The only good thing about litecoin because of it already available in various exchange sites.

It seems this month is a good month for litecoin. While litecoin does not yet have a high price so this time could be used to buy litecoin in big enough quantities. at the end of the month of litecoin will reach the high prices it looks like.

I'm not sure that this coin in 2018 can become so expensive. LTC grows very slowly and in a short time the coin can not multiply the cost by 10 times.
