People still mine litecoin?

Sure some will still do, and we likely going to see a few of people mining Litecoin from this Forum, and checking the 10th rankings in coins mining, Litecoin came third after Bitcoin being the most profitable and mined coin followed by monero and the Litecoin, so yes people still mind Litecoin it may not be so rampart life before but then activities is still very much on in there.

I don't know that Litecoin mining is still going as before, due to the way we have been hearing silence about the coins, though I don't know much about it's mining, but from the way things have not been so trending in discussing about Litecoin signifies a little drop from the coin in terms of it's mining capacity, but of no doubt, Litecoin is one of the most valuable coins I've ever trusted till today.

People still mine litecoin?

Based on the stats: https://whattomine.com/coins/4-ltc-scrypt
It's not profitable but I think that there are still Litecoin miners that continues to do it. If there will be no miners anymore and that means that there won't be confirmation anymore and so, that could confirm that people still mine Litecoin even if the stats say that it's unprofitable. But I guess that those who mine it finds it profitable dependong on their operation expenses.

Definitely there will be people still mining Litecoin and that is why we still have it transactions confirmation and at the same time the chain being running and having one of the lowest and fastest transactions confirmation it shows how active the miners are, although we may say Litecoin mining may not be as popular as before may the block reward is not as high as before.

If it becomes sufficiently unprofitable to mine LTC does it just die? I mean, does the chain just stop producing blocks? I thought there was difficulty adjustments to make up for stuff like this.

As long as a coin is listed on exchange and I am sure there would be a miner for it and about the profitability, it is just a fluctuating one like when I last checked price of litecoin in terms of BTC, it peaked up to 0.0011 BTC but right now trading around 0.0008 BTC. And in dollar values it is around 90 USD. I mean, miners will mine and hold some portions after covering their mandatory expenses to see some profits.

Litecoin is currently ranked 21 in coinmarketcap which means I guess it will survive for few more years and I remember I read somewhere like Elon Musk kind of whale may adapt litecoin and pump like how he did the same with dogecoin. I agree with that because such whales need a coin to manipulate and profit and they will not mind whether it is doge or lite.

Well I do not think there is alot of people that does still mine Litecoin. Even Bitcoin I do not think there is alot of people that does spend so much money to mine them.

I think it is better to just spend that money on coins and hodl. You will make alot more gains and then not have to buy the hardware and pay for your expensive costs to mine them.

The difficulty will adjust as people stop mining and the rest of people who still mines gonna get better rewards.
It works more or less the same as bitcoin in regard of difficulty adjustment maybe with some difference in adjustment interval and block time.
