Don't bother to find out what is behind small price spikes of LTC. It is probably rich whale who suddenly decided to include LTC into his investing portfolio.
Meanwhile masses are trying to deduce what is happening. I think that max price LTC will achieve this year is sub $40.
There is another possibility that Bitcoin after scaling solution will be implemented will soar and every other altcoin will crash.
I agree with you,
LTC will crawl and it would not be like early this year when segwit applied and LTC was jumping higher.
I would also predict that LTC will come to 40 usd,
dont expect any jumping
Value is fiat terms is useless. I am more interested to know the price of LTC in BTC terms. If BTC goes to 10,000 dollars but LTC goes to 50 dollars, I would be very disappointed as the price of LTC has underperformed.
LTC at 40 dollars does not mean much if BTC skyrockets. However, if LTC is able to hold its value when BTC crashes, I would be more impressed.
