Litecoin prices surged nearly 70% yesterday, ending months of stagnant market activity. According to the data, most of the trading has taken place on Poloniex, OKCoin and Huobi. As of today, Litecoin 24 hour volume is greater than Ethereum by nearly 20%.
 
Some say this is due to the efforts to integrate segregated witness (segwit) with Litecoin. Others say that traders are simply chasing possible gains in the altcoin markets.

What is your opinion on this? Do you think both Bitcoin and Litecoin will get segwit integration? How will this affect their prices? Which one will get segwit integration first: Bitcoin or Litecoin?

This is a no contest LTC is very close to activate segwit this is a matter of at most one or two weeks in my opinion and it is very obvious the price of LTC is going to grow simply because the users are very optimistic about this new development in the coin and I will be honest I’m excited too to see how segwit performs.
With the faster block than bitcoin My guess you just see a little perform by segwit itself. Segwit to solving the scalability problem.  And improving the blocksize.

The segwit of ltc is about the hype for the litecoin market itself. In this time the price of litecoin is $13.
In my opinion, we are near to 1 billion market cap.

1 billion is real for litecoin. Segwit in litecoin is not about the scalability but it's about to attract a new hype or demand to follow litecoin market.

Even if it is a ploy to get more users, and I think you are right on that, since litecoin was already fast, I think it is a step on the right direction, because the miners on bitcoin need to see that approving segwit will make bitcoin more valuable so they are not going to lose money as they think.

Regarding Bitcoin:

Segregated Witness, often abbreviated to SegWit, is a proposed update to the Bitcoin software. Originally, the update was aimed at solving transaction malleability. However, SegWit offers a range of other advantages and by now, the focus of attention has shifted from fixing the transaction malleability to solving the problem of Bitcoin scaling. By solving transaction malleability, SegWit eliminates what used to be a minor problem for Bitcoin itself, but a major barrier to implementing second-layer solutions on top of it. One of those solutions is the proposed Lightning Network, which is expected to allow for a massive increase in the network capacity by moving the bulk of transactions off the Blockchain for quick processing.

Moreover, Bitcoin is targeting record highs as data suggests support for Segregated Witness (SegWit) update Bitcoin protocol could be as high as 91 percent. Current conditions put Bitcoin at an extending upward trend lasting since March.

Hopefully after LITECOIN comes BITCOIN second on segwit activation...

SegWit activation of LTC is in preparation on Bitcoin activation. They want to test how Segwit will work. But I don't think the LTC needed Segwit by the way, LTC haven't reached max block size limit yet, so I believed that this is just like a experimentation on the functionally of Segwit and how LTC will react to it.

Here's a link for you to know the reason behind Segwit adoption by LTC. It never had anything to do with blocksize limit (I'm a little surprised people are still mentioning that with all the information available). Also, it's primarily bitcoin supporters who view it as an experiment for BTC, litecoin developers are interested in seeing it proceed on BTC; but, intended to proceed no matter what bitcoin does.

https://segwit.org/my-vision-for-segwit-and-lightning-networks-on-litecoin-and-bitcoin-cf95a7ab656b

What I'm looking forward to is the first version of the lightning network being released with LTC as the settlement layer. Based on tests performing well on the LTC testnet likely we will see LN transactions before the end of May.
