How high will Litecoin go?

[marckenigsberg]

Hey guys
I'm trying to get some opinions on high Litecoin can go this year.
I've just started a poll on Twitter.
I'll put the link below otherwise let me know here.
What will be the Litecoin price at the end of 2017.

I don't use Twitter, but I could see it going as high as $90-100 by the year's end.

In 2015 litecoin fall -50% in 1 hour

It might reach $80 by the end of the year. Litecoin has a history of remaining 'calm' for sometime and then explodes to a new high before dropping again. I never expected Ether to overtake Litecoin in market cap so fast. By the way Litecoin is heavily traded on OKCoin. The Chinese love it.

I don't know about the end of year, but there is a certain mysterious countdown and uncertainty about what is gonna happen in August, so the price will rise for sure. I think $70, being conservative.

I think the minimum can be 80-100$ in a few months, because of the hype and the sudden increase of development

If you look at the charts, LTC has been, overall, in an uptrend for a while now.  ETH is in a downtrend as I think its taking a breather after its massive upward move and Bitcoin seems to be consolidating.  I think when BTC takes off again we'll see some profit taking and more money coming into LTC.  I could see LTC reaching $100 this year.

Much depends on Charlie Lee. His return to Litecoin has pushed the price and the expectations. I am sceptical he could bring Litecoin up to an level so that it could compete with other more advanced coins. Yesterday I read the following article on Coindesk "Life After Coinbase: Can Charlie Lee Keep Litecoin's Revival Alive?". Really interesting article which covers your question partly.

Thanks for the opinions and the article link.
August is definitely going to be interesting for LTC.
I think if it can break 100 at some point this year it won't stop there.

Why the second prediction? 


My suggestion is: always hold some LTC. If you are a lover, up to 40% of your portfolio. Otherwise 15-10% as a lower bound.
For the price, I agree with 100 USD this year.

I hope so, The hardfork + blocksize increase of bitcoin will have made the litecoin will be useless. I know if those are using it to be the second way of bitcoin but it can gets a big dump anytime like what was happened in 2015.
I will not be having a big expectation about that.

Litecoin will be something end of this year.
The founder is dedicated,
the coins is forked to make it better,
community agrees to HODL,
what else?

It will have a big jump.

Litecoins future is indirectly dependent on how well bitcoin does come the first of August. Should things unfold well for bitcoin and it recovers its dominance in the cryptospace litecoin will keep trading below 100 dollars

Litecoin is dog shit.

I had not thought of that but I think you're right,maybe it would only be useful in case something went wrong,but I do not think that happens like this,developers have had plenty of time to develop all possible scenarios about hardfork and blocksize,so despite the disagreements between the community and the long time elapsed before a solution was proposed and accepted by most,that will be reflected in a few weeks from now.

You guys don't like Litecoin for sure.
If you look up The topic is how high LTC can go. It is not how low he can go.

And since you like BTC so much, instead of destroying Litecoin I think You should more focus on the difficulties BTC is having in resolving his scaling issue and SegWit activation. Which by the way LTC has activated successfully with out all that craziness.

$100 is very achievable considering Charlie Lee is behind it. I don't know how LTC is a shitcoin when it's a top 5 coins.
