It's been undervalued and passed over by many pump and dumps over the years. It's a solid alt coin to use alongside Bitcoin.

Accepted more places than any other crypto, Litecoin is one of the few altcoins that I actually use.

It's low fee, fast confirmations and 2nd oldest crypto. Can't go wrong in my opinion.

I have the same definition for Litecoin, a solid coin after bitcoin but that was before when Charlie abandoned and left. When he was still there, many looked up to this altcoin and considered as the silver bitcoin in the market.

But now, even though we've been through a bull run, it didn't make a noise and neither went back to its former ATH.

Despite that it's not able to be back on the past ATH, the utility that it has and its usage of it has been wide than the other altcoins that's been built through hype. Well, Litecoin has been built through time.

What you're saying was true but that's pretty sad to say that if this coin doesn't have utilities like what owned by another coins in the market. If we are talking about the cheap fees and then yeah even binance needs you to pay a few cents to deliver your transaction. The problem is these days there are so many smartcontract coins that offered better utilities compared with the old coins. that's why even some old coins were dead. It's caused by the demand was migrating to the new coins with more utilities.

That reminds me with namecoin too.

I just wonder why this coin has not made any noise this past few years and maybe because they cannot seem to find any partners to make their coins more usable or have some number of utilities for it to be used. sadly this is not the case for Litecoins and it remained underrated for the past years since they don't have working developments or some updates to further escalate the number of people using it. What they really need to do nowadays is to make partnerships with some top coin owners or businesses in order not to be left behind and LTC price will only depend on bitcoins price nowadays which is not recommendable for investment.

I see this coin as the best one for long term investments as well, so I totally agree with you If we fast forward to the year 2025 the majority of industry experts believe that Litecoin will have a prosperous future changelly forecasts that the price of Litecoin may reach as high as with a total market capitalization of approximately 4.4 billion Litecoin is ranked as the 22nd largest cryptocurrency network only you can decide if purchasing Litecoin is a smart financial move for you at this time You should do research on Litecoin's potential and base your selection on a variety of variables including the mix of your investment portfolio your financial goals and your risk profile never risk more money than you can afford to lose by investing it

There is no doubt about the efficiency of the coin and i am using them once in a while and the value just dumps whenever the bear market is in full swing and you need to wait till the next rally to see some movement in the valuation. Considering some of the shit coins yes you can claim that it is undervalued but you need to market the coin to the new users to make it relevant.
 We can ask coblee (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=20651) if we can expect any major announcements ;) .

The post sounds there like is big new that is about to go public to trigger a huge buy, but all these things op has mentioned have always been part of ltc but it wasn't enough for people to start buying so why do you think that will change so suddenly and people will start buying?

After Charlie abandon and left LTC, the popularity of LTC declines, and it looks like the development and upgrade of the network gone really slow.  And many new altcoins performs better than LTC in terms of technology.

Probably LTC need more marketing or probably need a better marketing strategy.  After all, great marketing adds up to the value of cryptocurrency since a successful marketing activity can bring in new investors to LTC market.

I seem to believe in all of your opinions but have exceptions about the part you said Litecoin is the most accepted crypto. That is not true. That honor alone belongs to bitcoin alone

Agree, it's because it is being treated as the brother of Bitcoin only. But nevertheless, it's solid and has been in the market for many years.

Yes, but I don't see it having a break out run in this bear market. I mean everyone is down, but you can buy it right now and hold and wait for it to have a good run in 2024. Obviously, a new all time high is to be expected.

Anything can go wrong, even for bitcoin, because this is a crypto market and anything is possible here, even the most unlikely scenarios. Litecoin is one of those coins that has a rich history and good growth dynamics. For classical investor this asset fits perfectly, because it has already proved itself as the most reliable and as growing over time. I try to buy LTC at drawdowns like BTC and ETH, as I think that Litecoin will be worth $500 in next 5 years and it has less chance of scam than 99.99% of altcoins.

"It's low fee, fast confirmations."

apparently this saying is very old, its the 2014 thinking. Most of the new coins/old coins are already fast and low fee.
We need something new that it can bring something new into the industry.

The fact that It didn't attain a new all time high in the recent bull market speaks volumes. Perhaps the emergence of lots of POS coins like BNB, AVAX, MATIC, LUNA led to traders abandoning most of the old solid projects in order not to miss out on the hype and possibilities of abnormal profits.

I think it will slowly sink down the marketcap just like DASH, XMR, ZEC etc

They started off as an alternative to Bitcoin but where should people place them now since there are hundreds of coins and tokens claiming to be the better alternative? I think the LTC is still a good option for your daily crypto transaction but there are other tokens to consider first if we're talking about long-term investments.

People's opinions will definitely be different, and of course the choice will also be different, namely the choice of investing in altcoins. and I think this is a good topic, it's true that lately people rarely talk about litecoin, even though litecoin is a quality crypto, and in terms of price, litecoin still has a good price, so I think in the future litecoin will make a good breakthrough, because Litecoin is a quality cryptocurrency.

the advantage of LTC that i am seeing is that it is available in most trading platforms. this is why the access for this old alt is quite easy for a lot of traders, and combined with low fee and fast confirmations, that makes this coin still attractive to a lot of crypto users. yes, there are a lot of new coins offering the same features, however, some of them are hard to find in top trading platforms. what i would like to know is if there are active developments with LTC. this is where people are seemingly deprive of the actual status of what's going on with LTC. so i can't say about having a big break in the market.

People call Bitcoin as a digital gold and Litecoin as a digital silver. Litecoin has many years in history and it is used to deploy new technology before a real big upgrade for Bitcoin. An example is Segwit upgrade in 2017 and later is Lightning Network

Litecoin gives us lower transaction fee and fast confirmation time but you did not mention one important characteristic of Litecoin network. Its total hashrate is high enough to make it as a third safest cryptocurrency networks, after Bitcoin network and Ethereum network.

Because Ethereum changed from PoW to PoS, now Litecoin is the second strongest one in total hashrate.

From chart (https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/litecoin/), I would like to wait for price from $25 to $35 to think of accumulating Litecoin.

Although, it is undeniably still popular but it's different when Charlie was still there. After his announcement of selling all of his LTCs during the ATH of it, that has left the project still going but not the same as with him anymore. I still like it with its transfers and fees.

Who's going to spend and allocate the budget for marketing then? I don't think that there's a need for that, it has a foundation already and it's still popular to date.

It is up for the community on finding out whether they're going to like LTC or not and will use it as an asset or as an alternative transfer just like what it is for most.

Hard to find? I can literally point out how many top 50 coins that is listed on the big exchanges...

It's just regretful that it cannot be noticed anymore.
Many investors are busy looking for something new that would enhance their profits in faster way than for a long and secure shot.
BNB, Staking coins, NFTs, etcetera.
They are even avoiding Bitcoin so it becomes more of a problem for Litecoin to be seen in the spotlight, unlike in the old days. That big break will be a long shot and near impossible.

actually LTC doesn't get a strong push to reach new ATH every time the bullish season arrives, it's all because LTC has not had any developments until this year. whereas there are big investors out there waiting for the LTC development team to make interesting changes that seem to have high value in the future.
maybe currently LTC is only underestimated by some investors and is only used for transactions and trading, but one day if the LTC development team wants to advance the coin LTC will be a good asset for the long term

From all clear indication you perfectly right most times i wonder if the project has nothing to do about their price increase, over the years i have seen Litecoin to be one of the best currency then and i was holding for long but due to the price not being appreciated i have to trade all to Bitcoin and other favorable altcoin there.
I think is time for them to focus on the development, follows by marketing or possibly rebranding.

Litecoin is one of the ALT coins. It is one of the oldest coins. We have been using this coin along with Bitcoin.It certainly occupies a good position if we all can definitely assess it without underestimating it But if we don't underestimate it, if we hold it for a long time, we can certainly take its price to a very high level at some point.

I think Litecoin still has a chance to go higher, but I'm still unsure if the price can reach the last ATH year. It will need more big pumps to lift the price to the last ATH and even create a new ATH.

With the price now at $51, it gives us the opportunity to buy more as the price drops drastically. And before bitcoin gets another pump, Litecoin could be an investment option for us to hold onto for a while.

silver bitcoin, this is a good coin to use but if you hold them for profit it is probably not a smart choice. honestly, litecoin is also very good but sadly it doesn't have any noticeable hype, possibly due to the strong competition again of new altcoins. today's new altcoins in addition to more advanced technology can say their marketing is too good, their hype always attracts investors. it's hard to find any reason for LTC to explode in the future, they don't have any major updates or special changes to compete with new altcoins

Yes I agree, I should have mentioned most accepted *after Bitcoin  :)

I think the major problem with old coins like ltc is no reasonable utility beside PoW, not just traders but investors as well do not find them profitable enough to buy and hold anymore. Like you said, with time, this coin will probably slowly fade away, it is really a shame to see how these old and solid coins are being abandoned for new ones. I thought decentralization was an important factor!

Litecoin is one of the oldest cryptocurrencies out there, and has always positioned itself as silver alongside bitcoin gold.
and one of the best features of litecoin is its low gas cost so it is bought and used to transfer crypto between exchanges and between crypto wallets, so it has a legitimate use case and is also the oldest and still trustworthy coin for the future.
I'm not panicking about the state of altcoins right now because it definitely goes up if bitcoin goes up and I think it's a good time to buy it even though I prioritize bitcoin but I'm also buying it bit by bit on litecoin, and holding it for the long term.

There was a lot of news about Litecoin and this ecosystem is constantly evolving.
Last news
https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/bitcoin-and-litecoin-coming-to-stellar-lumens-network-with-sep-6-transfer-service/
Bitcoin and Litecoin coming to Stellar Lumens network with SEP-6 transfer service
"Coinqvest surfaces as the Tier SEP-6 transfer server on the Stellar Network.
Investors can support Stellar in building rich liquidity for Coinqvest."
Litecoin does not have a convenient service for working with stablecoins, so a huge number of transactions are observed in the Tron ecosystem.

I read some blogs about how POW algo coins are becoming scarcer since Ethereum switched to POS. LTC may have a chance of a comeback if investors would gamble on scarcity alone. It's cheaper than BTC so maybe they will take a shot but some of them may choose ETHW instead.

True, it didn't get the recognition that it deserved, LTC has been a friend of gamblers as well, because it's very cheap and super fast transaction. I remember when BTC and ETC have problems with the deposit and fees are high. So I switch to LTC and it did great for me and so are for the other gamblers are well.

Unfortunately, the whole crypto space have been moving a lot lately, and now the hype is on NFT, Metaverse, the whole staking game and others. But if they can look at LTC right now and throw in some investment, for sure they won't regret it.

I have been waiting for LTC to go back into top 10 for a while now, and I believe it does belong there as well. If you do not consider the stablecoins, right now 1 is btc, 2 is eth, 3 is bnb, and I honestly believe ltc should be 4 behind them, with stablecoins spread between them of course. Why it hasn't been there? Why it has been out of top 20 even, I do not know because it is really a good one.

First of all, it has been around for longer than a decade, not many projects can survive that long, that alone should give you a good reason to buy, secondly it gets a lot of improvements and constantly gets new features, which should be another reason. It’s really a good one for sure.

I think the age of litecoin is playing against it, we know that people let themselves influenced by the newest trend in the market and with the exception of bitcoin POW coins are not really popular now, so while litecoin was a good project I think it no longer captures the imagination of people anymore, and in that case its growth will always be limited as people will prefer to invest in projects they think have more potential to grow than litecoin.

many users have trust when it comes litecoin because it seems not really affected everytime there's a worst scenario in the market and yes last it still has very cheap fees and reliable for making transactions.. Actually many projects already dead but this one still alive and very useful.. Lol so no doubts if someday litecoin become one of the trusted altcoin in the market.

MimbleWimble is a significant update for Litecoin, and I think it gives a huge impact on the ecosystem. Having privacy technologies built-in into the system is surely a good way of project development, noting how the current perception of a "tainted" or "bad" coin, nevertheless, it might have less effect if we talking about the worst-case scenario since the way of a private transaction is optional or opt-in. Not fully private on the blockchain, like Monero.

But, the recent progress development should indicate that there is a demand within the community so the ecosystem keep improving.

Old projects such as litecoin will certainly be difficult to develop, of course this is also common in old coins such as dash, EOS, Monero, Waves, etc. So if we pay attention, the old coins decrease and have difficulty competing with new projects.

The development is still in progress and some already posted by litecoin official twitter account https://twitter.com/litecoin
It seems like that this time the development of litecoin is focusing into the massive adoption. I saw that if walmart was interesting to accept litecoin to give an alternative crypto payment to the its customers. this sounds good for me but im not sure this has been giving impact to the price of litecoin.

So far Litecoin developers are still active to continue to develop but unfortunately at this time many investors are not too interested in investing with old coins like Litecoin so that although it recently announced that the Walmart company wants to adopt Litecoin but the news does not have a positive impact on price movements, Litecoin is one of the potential altcoins and there is still a possibility that its price will rise significantly when the bull market comes.

Personally, I don't have too many trades related to LTC, but I accept the fact that trading is happy with it. However, I don't have too much faith in holding it for the long term, because it's basically not on my favorites list. But with LTC, we have all seen the strength that this coin has in this market, and it is not surprising that each different trend is interesting to people in their own ways.

The only reason why investors buy and hold coins is for profit, btc always gives good profit in any condition, the same can be said for eth, bnb but am not sure about ltc, it is an old coin that has been around more than a decade but is that really enough? If you ask me, i don't really see the worth of ltc in terms of utility besides cheap transaction fees, is there any other utility it has that will generate demand?
Maybe am limited to ltc utility, perhaps it has more usage than I understand.
What I do know is a lot of improvement has gone into the crypto space, investors want more than just the span of time a coin exits, and many projects are web3 support moving with constant innovations, the reason why most of these old projects will slowly fade away when they can not keep up with new innovations since they are not designed that way.

In order to make it happen, they need to create a big hype like what Elon Musk did to the entire crypto market as BTC, ETH and DOGE soar to their ATH's back then respectively.

Since Charlie Lee has left and abandoned Litecoin, there must be somebody out there who has a very big influence like Elon Musk and has strong belief in Litecoin who can make this altcoin soar.

But the sad reality is that Litecoin is just another altcoin, as most of us are now focused on Bitcoin and Ethereum's prices to soar once again in the long run.

I will happily wait for Litecoin to explode like last year, as I have already sold several Litecoins and made huge profits. Litecoin, one of the oldest coins besides bitcoin, still has the opportunity to rise again because the community still supports Litecoin so that it can get more investors. But I have no idea what the highest price Litecoin can reach is because it looks like the ATH price last year was very high while the current Litecoin price is falling hard.

Even if the walmart deal doesn't happen, which would be expected to be fair because if litecoin is on walmart that would be the unexpected result, then I would assume that it could still grow. As long as they are working on it, litecoin is a good project which will end up going as high as possible and stay at that high level as well.

Doesn't mean that it will be growing to a point where it's at top 5, I don't think it will get there but slowly it could creep back into top 20, top 15, and then eventually top 10 and it could stay at 10th place all I care because that would be good enough. People need to realize this is a long term project and doing well, just because it had a bad period doesn't mean it's bad.

from a certain point of view, LTC is a historical coin that has been able to conquer an important slice of the market in the crypto sector.

However, the price over the years has not had an exponential rise like that of bitcoin and has partly affected its spread.

Now the only problem with altcoins is that it is always possible that some "new" ones will arrive and supplant those already present.
At the end "bitcoin" is only 1, with certain characteristics that make it unique and not replaceable by no other altcoins....Conversely, this aspect is not present with any crypto. Likewise here with Litecoin.

Litecoin is based on the concept of silver version of bitcoin but unlike btc that is mainly being used for investing, litecoin is mainly being used for payment purposes or for gambling purposes due it's wider support and nature which like you said fast and cheap. Now that you know the difference between the two, don't be sad now.

Litecoin isn't being forgotten by the public, it's just that there are people who prefer to make fortune in crypto so they go for a better alternative and they think pump and dump coins can offer them a fast solution. They only need to be careful though because if their plan go wrong, it will also bust their money faster than they can imagine.

I am also curious if Litecoin will start to have a lot of transactions just like Bitcoin, is the transaction fee still guaranteed cheap compared with Bitcoin if the current traffic of the network is the same?
Speaking of this alternative coins use for payments, there are already lot of them beside Litecoin, that's why seems Litecoin is starting to fade as time goes by but this project is superb!

As a matter of fact, this litecoin has been most preferred altcoin in some of gambling site outside from bitcoin it was included before any other altcoin. Was as strong holder but all of a sudden the price fluctuations from its original price dip to what we can't really understand and I wondered if there were further plans to develop the project or something about its price. Why don't we see the price surges like other coin or can we believe it's a pump and dump project or does it mean since they have already made name they don't care about to further features.

I don't know if Litecoin is really due for a massive pump. I agree though that it is a big and established project that is not just another stupid meme-coin and that it has an actual use case. That being said, if you compare litecoin to projects like Ethereum, Solana or Cosmos then it is also pretty obvious that the use-cases of Litecoin are pretty limited. You can send end receive and that is pretty much it. There is no smart contract functionality which means all of the big topics of the last 2 years like Defi and NFT's are not possible with Litecoin. I still think though that it should be valued higher than any of those stupid meme-coins.

I have been hearing from various sources for a long time that LTC is very undervalued and has huge upside potential. Time passes, but I still have not seen any rapid growth of this coin. It would seem that LTC has a fairly wide distribution, fast transactions and low commissions, a large user base, fame and recognition, and many other advantages. But for some reason, the world still cannot appreciate all this. Something is still missing for LTC. Many hope for a further rise in the price of this altcoin, but so far they have not waited for this. Maybe someday it will happen, maybe not. Other projects have already appeared, the value of whose coins has long outgrown LTC, are very popular and are in no way inferior to it (like BNB). Therefore, I don’t even know if a coin is worth attention when there are better analogues. ycтyпaют 123 (вpoдe 123).

Yes I like Litecoin because of very low fee and acceptable in many website. It's prices so much down from ATH but still has potential to breakthrough and outperform the market. I used Ltc to transfer between exchanges because usdt fee is 1 while ltc withdraw fee only 10 cent.
There will be halving next year and hope it's price will move up before 2024.

Litecoin has indeed been relegated for a very long time. We used to see litecoin to be potentially viable and promising like bitcoin, but it hasn't lived up to this expectations. Maybe because of the developers or something I can't tell but I still hope that litecoin would some day become a force to be reckon with in the cryptocurrency market.

No doubt litecoin is due for a big break but why only litecoin? Almost all of the good altcoins are very down on their support levels, and they would bounce back hard once the bitcoin recovers. I don't think this would happen anytime soon as we are still in a bear market and the bear market low is still pending.
Anyways Litecoin is a good coin and this is a good time to accumulate more of Litecoin at current prices.

No doubt that Litecoin is one of the oldest cryptocurrency present in the market. The marketcap of the coin is also big. Yes but somehow it’s not getting the recognition that it should get for which the demand line of the curve remains parallel and price thus doesn’t increases when other coins pumps. But thanks to it’s great stability for which many people use it for continuous altcoins transactions. We need to also thank the low fees as it’s best for sending multiple transactions.

The Era for litecoin has gone. people are still considering litecoin as a bitcoin brother but it seems like that if litecoin doesn't seem to get more unique users again. My first time to hear if litecoin accepted in more place than another crypto? any proof that was supporting that statement? i never such news before. it may be wrong. This time litecoin is not as fast as another first layer blockchain in the market. it needs only a few seconds to deliver the transaction unlike litecoin.

That is also my opinion. In fact, Litecoin was one of the first coins I mined alongside Bitcoin. I strongly believe we have hit the ground and some accumulation has been going on for some time. LLT needs to break the $63 barrier and when it happens he should take a High way on to at least $83. At least that is my viewpoint on the 3-day LTC\USD chart.



https://i.ibb.co/P5NTx12/TNZ4TIh.jpg (https://imgbb.com/)

i use litecoin since years, i use it a lot for transfers because it has low fee and is very fast in confirmation but i also use litecoin to day trade although it is more complicated to predict the price movement of litcoin, so i check the bitcoin price - usdt and then I will check the price of litecoin, this way I can day trade with litecoin, I read comments from some people saying that litecoin needs to be improved, I think litecoin is a currency, it already has a low fee and is fast in confirmations, what else do people want? do you want litecoin to become like ETH and so many other altcoins? i think litecoin is very good as it is currently


these guys who keep putting bitcoin aside to put money in these shitcoins, then when they lose money they come here on the forum to complain, all people who love the money they have know that putting money in bitcoin is the best option, these other altcoins are unstable, the owners are greedy people who only create projects because they want money and when they already have money they are on twitter posting things and people are deceiving themselves that the team is working on the project, just because the team told them another lie. It's unbelievable how people still fall for these shitcoins


but litecoin already has good features, it has low fee and fast confirmation, that's what a coin needs to have. when they put other extra resources then litecoin will already be like other altcoins


Litecoin is a currency, I see no reason to rebrand or add too much unnecessary stuff. look at bitcoin for example

I do not know if litecoin is due to a big break, over the years it has lost its position as one of the top 10 coins in the market and I do not see how it is going to recover that position, especially as every single year new projects emerge and even if a great deal of them are useless there are a handful which are good and which eventually make it to the highest ranks in this market due to their innovation, while litecoin is little more than a bitcoin copy.

But just to be fair, we are in a bear market, so it's hard to see a break out run with anyone of this old projects such as Litecoin. Although remain to be solid, as it has been in the market for so long and has survived many cycles already.

But in order to have a break out run, we should be in the bull run, not in the bear market wherein the sentiments is very negative. And as you have said, there is no development, maybe just a couple here and there, but not enough to create more hype to bring more investors.

The era of LTC has probably not really come yet.
We must not forget that this is a coin with a long history, very reliable, and if we see news about how some store starts accepting bitcoin, usually Litecoin is accepted along with BTC.

The reliability of the network is proved by the constantly growing hashrate, which, despite the price, is actually at the maximum 507.60 TH/s.
If I'm not mistaken 51% attacks did not happen with Litecoin either.

https://i.postimg.cc/0N8gMz9F/Screenshot-2.png (https://postimages.org/)
https://www.coinwarz.com/mining/litecoin/hashrate-chart

I don't think it needs any further improvement/ development it is already a complete payment system.

And the projects you are talking about still fail to reduce their transaction fees like ethereum. And some other have security issues, like solana.

Litecoin is a long time coin because Litecoin has entered the market for a long time. But comparatively, Litecoin can survive in the market by competing with other coins When the price of Bitcoin goes up, the price of Litecoin goes up, I think it is related to Bitcoin. However, if they want to survive at the highest level in the market, they have to make new announcements every day so that investors invest in their platform as soon as possible.

https://i.imgur.com/pV1ihx8.jpg

bittorrent and many other zombie coins have been on the market for a long time, but now they can only buy a couple of chewing gums.
Still, Litecoin has been in the top 30 for so long time for other reasons: this is the POW algorithm, an understandable scheme for working with it, resistance to attack 51, due to the high hash rate, low fees, ease of use.

When bitcoin grows, everything grows after it and vice versa. In fact, there is no market without Bitcoin yet.

I would guess that the main reason why they thinkg it will have a big break out is the fact that even though the coin lost its position, no other coin has kept it as good as litecoin.

Yes, it’s not top 10 like it used to be, but what is top 10 instead of litecoin has changed many times over, all of those projects end up going lower than litecoin eventually, for example we have other coins at top 10 now compared to 5 years ago, and 5 years later we will have different top 10, but litecoin will always be litecoin. This means even though it lost a bit of place, it still does stronger against all the other high level ones that drop eventually, meaning litecoin would do better in the long run.

actually it's not a matter of being defeated or not because Litecoin at this time may not have had a significant development from the development team. but if the new altcoin looks like it is superior to Litecoin because the new altcoin has an uncertain purpose in the future so the new altcoin looks like it has a development team that is always improving the utility of the coin even though sometimes such altcoins have no clear future and sometimes just hit and run.
different from Litecoin although at this time there has not been a prominent development but Litecoin remains an old coin that has a clear future and will not scam.
and it looks like Litecoin doesn't need to cooperate with other projects to increase the coin but just needs the development team to attract more community to push up the price of Litecoin.

That’s the thing about litecoin, not only it has been around for a long time (since 2011 which means it has been around for 11 years, going into 12 soon) they are also in the top 30 all this time, never went lower. If it was a bad one, then just like the ones you named it would have gone lower, but there were dozens of projects that were higher than litecoin in history, and then dropped under litecoin as well.

Because they were bad projects that got hyped for a while, and then they turned out bad and dropped under litecoin. Meanwhile, litecoin may have failed to go to top since those days, but it also never went lower like that neither which gives a good reason to keep some of it on your portfolio.

I agree with you about Litecoin. Few altcoins can be found on the market with similar characteristics.
Nevertheless, many people do not consider Litecoin to be something promising, constantly trying to find a 'hidden gem' somewhere else, skipping seemingly obvious things.
However, while the price will remain at the same level as now, the mass popularity of litecoin will not be seen, and this is also important.
Litecoin is really similar to "digital silver", but it is still very undervalued.

All they need is to sustain their good services and have to spread more awareness to the community. Because the more they become known to the public, the more people become curious and wanted to try their services. And in regards to their fees, something they need not level with others and if they can make it low than ETH, I think that is even better and could possibly gain more users.

Litecoin has been in the market for many years and even though the volume is low but still, I believe this will even stay long and have potential in the future.
