Is litecoin still a good investment

[jossiel]

ATH was $300+ and if that's a target for an investor, the price of it today is $70 can be a considerably good price.

But just to mind, that ATH was last seen on 2017 and the next one was on 2021. It didn't do that much last 2025 bull run.

There's still a strong community in it and the use of it for its speed is still used today.

Is Litecoin still a good investment? Litecoin has been an Altcoin for ages and is reliable in sending cheap transaction.
Litecoin is like Silver and Bitcoin is Gold.
Is Litecoin still a good Investment?

I will not call LTC a good investment. It used to be a solid coin. But right now, it seems to have been left behind. Instead of choosing LTC for my investment, I’d prefer to put more money into Bitcoin. Which is a sure bet. Bitcoin is beyond doubt.

If I wanted to diversify to maximize profits, I will choose to add BNB or SOL. I still hold some LTC I bought years ago. But the gains have been minimal. Nowhere near those of other top altcoins. It is lucky that LTC has managed to survive in the market at all. But its price performance just is not what it used to be. Personally, I do not expect much from this coin anymore. But of course, DYOR.

LTC is still a great option for fast transactions with low fees. But as an investment with solid upside? That's nowhere near enough. Low fees, fast txns, a loyal community, don't automatically mean a coin has much room to grow. And the market's not exactly short on coins that can do the same thing.

To put it bluntly, LTC is looking pretty outdated compared to the rest of the market. Utility, community, development, scalability...it's behind in pretty much every area. Honestly, it may stick around, but I don't see it as a very promising investment.

For long-term investments it is very doubtful, for now some older coins still have attention to buy, if they have touched the dip price, the probability of getting at least a 50% increase from the lowest price to the peak of the bullish cycle is very likely (but don't expect to get ATH or excessive expectations), on the other hand there is also always a liquidity rotation in the narrative, LTC is always included in dino coins that still survive to this day, especially the technology is lagging behind or not, most importantly they still have their activities, even if it's just the ThorchainDex project and other protocols, which are fairly meager network revenues.

As investment no, it is not showing the progress like other shitcoins and not even coping up or following the trend of bitcoin for ages, so you can buy litecoin to make cheaper transactions with better decentralization than shitcoins that are centralized but buying it with the hope of making 10x or 100x is not really a good move.

How the mighty have fallen, I know that Litecoin was one of the top altcoins if you were counting their hierarchy but over the years it has not lived up to the hype of being in the same category as Ethereum, Solana and even BNB. It is better than many shitcoins in the market but surely not quite in the top altcoins league, for investment I think that there are better choices in the altcoins market but I cannot totally write it off. For me if you're not holding only Bitcoin you're increasing your investment risks, whether it is Ethereum at the top of the altcoins list or Litecoin somewhere in the middle or majority of the shitcoins in the market it is better to invest cautiously with amount that you can actually give away.

I somewhat agree with you. Litecoin was one of my favourites before 2017 and I remember making most of my profits in litecoin in that bull run but I eventually shifted from litecoin to other alts because I saw higher chances of making profits there. Now, majority of the new investors who were recently introduced to cryptos hardly have any knowledge about litecoin. These investors would know the current trending projects but litecoin is ancient for them.

This might make litecoin lose it's dominance over time. We have 100s of options for cheaper transactions now so there should be some other reason to use litecoin or people might simply move on.

Only great thing in it that i see is the idea it represents. And that is times when people weren't doing hidden premines and when they weren't run by profit seeking companies with leading figures. When coins had fair launches and everyone could have participated at the same time. When everything was community driven and transparent, while in most cases pseudonymous.

When it comes to fast and cheap transaction times, it doesn't get even close to cheapest and fastest networks.

As an investment, it's mostly just something one could hold as a principle, but that goes with every fair launch coin out there. Most of them aren't going anywhere in charts though.
