That’s a LTC and BTC if they mated and had a child

Nice. The only BTC I have is what's left over from when I signed up through my buddy's referral, for $10 worth, traded $10 for LTC or some crap, and now have $6 worth. But even now, it kills me to see it, especially the unrealized return. It wouldn't be a lot, but it'd be a couple hundred instead of $6. But good on you.

1) it runs on a different hashing algo so nobody is moving to mine it 2) most of the profit from mining ltc came from doge, but that's down 90% or something 3) more mining isn't going to make the price go up There is no niche that LTC fills that other networks don't fill better. Store of value? -> BTC payment network? -> BTC + lightning, or any stablecoin on an eth l2 Privacy coin? -> ZEC/XMR The only reason LTC has any value is because coinbase listed it alongside btc, eth and xrp in 2017. Since then the people who initially bought it keep buying more.

Was a pleasant surprise to see LTC above 80 cents again! Until I saw that it really was Solana.

**200k is half Bitcoin's tx** count, very far from "nothing". Also note ~70% of ETH's tx are smart contract calls, DeFi swaps, L2 bridges, bots, not payments. Apples to oranges, ETH isn't cash. Compare LTC to cash-like coins, leaves them in the dust: https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/transactions-btc-ltc-doge-xmr-bch-zec.html#6m Litecoin is used a lot, it's a fact.

tldr; Coinbase has expanded its crypto lending services, allowing users to use XRP, Dogecoin (DOGE), Cardano (ADA), and Litecoin (LTC) as collateral for loans in USD Coin (USDC). Powered by the Morpho DeFi protocol on Coinbase's Base network, eligible U.S. customers can borrow up to $100,000 in USDC. The platform uses wrapped tokens backed 1:1 by assets in secure custody. This move enhances liquidity access for investors without triggering taxable events, marking a milestone in the evolution of onchain credit markets. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Strange they handpicked ADA and LTC, two of the most underperforming assets.

Therighttodo

He quit. LTC was listed on Coinbase about a month later, which wasn’t exactly shocking, LTC was the #3 crypto by market cap at the time. There’s zero evidence he was "fired".

DarkLordLurker

LTC is an overall pretty stable, useful, and private coin which is why I like it so much. 

Therighttodo

Again: BitPay and CoinGate are real-world payment processors. Their merchant directories ([BitPay](https://www.bitpay.com/directory), [CoinGate](https://coingate.com/stores)) show tons accepting LTC (among others), and by transaction count LTC is #1 on BitPay, #3 on CoinGate. Savvy?

SpaceFaceMistake

This is good news. We need many more ways of spending IRL and having companies accept eg $BTC $LTC $XLM $XRP $ETH to be used as payment Through a Visa Card or account having Visa use or create their own Crypto Wallet system. So paying with Visa can be payed with $BTC but the company may wish to receive the Dollar or maybe 50/50. Master card or Visa then get exposure to owning $BTC or other coins for USD exchange which is super smart with $BTC the newest and longest currency to be. Or $USD the currency that is dying.

Therighttodo

It's real usage, lots of purchases. See how transaction count-wise, LTC has repeatedly hit #1 on [BitPay](https://np.reddit.com/r/litecoin/comments/1qsyr3v/merrick_theobald_bitpay_on_litecoins_dominance_in/) and top 3 on [CoinGate](https://np.reddit.com/r/litecoin/comments/1qiunx9/litecoin_usage_in_crypto_payments_in_2025/) over the last few years.

Therighttodo

What I mean is: you’re treating CoinMarketCap rank as if it's a clean scorecard for "how LTC is doing" when it's a **relative** metric that's driven by what *other [millions](https://coinmarketcap.com/charts/number-of-cryptocurrencies-tracked/) of coins* do, not just by anything fundamental changing in Litecoin. A few points: - **Rank != absolute performance.** LTC can be flat/down modestly and still slide in rank if a handful of coins above/below it rip on narrative flows. That's not a "Litecoin broke" signal by itself, it's often just where the marginal speculation is going. - **Cherry-picking the winner is easy after the fact.** BCH massively outperforming over the last year is real, but that’s exactly how alt cycles behave: a few names do multiples while a lot of the complex moves together. One coin's surge doesn't automatically mean the others are failing, it means capital rotated hard into that theme. - **My original point stands:** if you overlay LTCUSD against a broad alts ex-BTC/stables benchmark, LTC has mostly been **moving with the alt market** since 2022, with some swings around it. So "market not impressed" is overstated. It's more like "LTC hasn’t been the leader" in this cycle.

RespectFront1321

It’s just a fancy term for leaving out the benchmark, BTC. While the handful of alts that completely outperformed LTC get drowned in the noise.

Therighttodo

300M is **lifetime since 2011**, not per year. Last year alone was about 93M tx (~255k/day avg), and [BitInfoCharts](https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/litecoin-transactions.html#alltime) has LTC around the same pace. So "80M in a year" isn’t a math trick, just a higher run-rate than the early years.

longonbtc

Exchanges get to choose how much they want to charge their customers for withdrawing bitcoin from their platform. This fee is referred to as a bitcoin withdrawal fee. I don't know how much WealthSimple chooses to charge their customers for withdrawing bitcoin from their platform. Some exchanges choose not to charge a bitcoin withdrawal fee at all (meaning it's free to withdraw bitcoin). [Swan Bitcoin](https://www.swanbitcoin.com/) chooses not to charge a bitcoin withdrawal fee. [Strike](https://strike.me/) chooses not to charge a bitcoin withdrawal fee if you choose the slowest option. [Cash App](https://cash.app/bitcoin) chooses not to charge a bitcoin withdrawal fee if you withdraw 0.001 BTC or more and you choose the standard speed option. [River](https://river.com/) chooses to give their customers one free bitcoin withdrawal per month. And [Strike](https://strike.me/), [River](https://river.com/), [Swan Bitcoin](https://www.swanbitcoin.com/), and [Cash App](https://cash.app/bitcoin) are all good places to buy bitcoin from. It wouldn't make any sense to convert your BTC to LTC and then back to BTC. You would just be paying extra fees. And even worse, you would be creating more taxable events.

RespectFront1321

How is, falling from position 15 exactly a year ago to 23 today, anchoring bias? A few alts are vastly outperforming it as well, such as BCH which was ranked 23rd (where LTC is today) a year ago but is now ranked #10.

Therighttodo

Transaction count-wise, LTC is #1 on BitPay and one of the top currencies on CoinGate.

Therighttodo

I don't know about the gray market, but transaction count-wise, LTC is #1 on BitPay and one of the top currencies on CoinGate.

Therighttodo

That's anchoring bias. For proper perspective, overlay `TOTAL2ES` (total crypto cap ex-BTC/stables) on `LTCUSD` in TradingView. See this: https://postimg.cc/HjFYZRRL LTC swings -30% to +30% vs. the market at extremes, but just a few % on average **since 2022**. Tracks alts closely.

cannabibun

Tbf I am pretty sure LTC is the crypto I used to buy the most 'real life' stuff over the years (whole steroid/peptide gray market uses it).

RespectFront1321

Market not impressed. LTC is down -30% this year alone and -56% over a year. It’s currently ranked 23 on coinmarketcap, the lowest ranking in its lifetime.

LTC founder dumps LTC: That is bad. ETH founder dumps ETH: That is good.

BeefonWeck00

ive been holding LTC for 5 years. It's my third biggest bag. I have a lot of it. I am down 50%. Although it's been super frustrating, I am still optimisitc.

Oldiebones

LTC is junk. Don’t gamble with money if you can’t afford to lose it.

Honest-Tip6745

The first Quarter of 2026 LTC is going nowhere, dead weight switch to zec

IDFGMC

Funnily enough LTC is one I actually use occasionally. The others in my portfolio I just stare at as they halve in value weekly.

One-Kaleidoscope-594

LTC moves in cycles, so I’d hold if I were you. What price would make you sell if it drops further?

This-Adhesiveness-52

BTC, LTC, SOL, ETH, LINK, SUI, XRP is a risk, the hype won't last.

Kinglucky154

LTC does move in cycles but putting a lot in at once is risky. Even if €70 is possible, timing isn’t guaranteed. If you’re using Phemex, at least manage risk properly and don’t size it so big that volatility shakes you out.

Fremen85

I remember buying LTC in 2018 and literally nothing has happened with the project since then.

DoubleRNL

I personally don’t see LTC reaching new highs, or am I missing something?

LTC is dead

BTCWallahFXEmpire

Fundamentally, my bull case for Litecoin is that small miners will be affected if Bitcoin becomes too inaccessible. In fact, all rivaling PoW coins may benefit from such an exodus. LTC has been way undervalued for years, and it must attract capital rotations in the next bull market.

This-Adhesiveness-52

Yes, but on the way down all graphs follow the BTC graph down, if BTC go's down alts go down, the graphs down look almost identical to btc graph. We have to wait untill the BTC bullmarket to see alt coins rise again, the only recovery we see is because btc recovered a bit that day. But as long that BTC keeps going down it drags LTC and all other coins with it. 

Quandale_Pringle69

Yes but i personally think that a win is almost 100% sure, because of the overall statistics just the time it is going to take isn’t really sure my guess was based of the overall statistics so there’s basically no 100% chance there never is but btc and LTC aren’t going down much more and stay like that forever that’s what im pretty sure about that it will go up

This-Adhesiveness-52

As long as BTC keeps dropping it drags all alts down with it so worst case BTC drops to 45.000 euro and dragges LTC down with it to 30 euro . And then waiting untill BTC reaches 80.000 again after the bottom at 45.000 and when it surges LTC will ride on that bitcoin wave up again, but it could still take some months till BTC bottoms to 45.000 and starts to surge again. I already bought 2 dips. 1 at 65 euro and 1 at 55 euro and if it drops again another buy at 40 euro but like a few months i do hope so, will depend if BTC already bottomed 6 feb if not we could go down a lot lower.   But i also do think it will back to a 100 euro once BTC reaches 80.000 euro again but could take untill end this year. But also really hope it will only be 2 months. But don't be frustrated if btc keeps falling and drags LTC with it to it's bottom first. Better if you buy in pieces, you can never time the market. 

SameWeekend13

Exactly and after this recent doubt it’s almost like dead, literally no sentiment for LTC at this point sadly.

SameWeekend13

Talk about LTC man, next bull run it feels even less chances LTC will even manage to hit above$100.

AnxiousSeason

You still think the old DOGE has life in her? Man, ETH... ETH ETH ETH. I want to like ETH. I've just lost so much money on it. But it bounced back, so you might be right. I wouldn't count ETH out, I'm just not playing with ETH for now. And LTC, interesting. Don't know much about it -- isn't it a fork of BTC? Frankly I've yet to see a real use case for crypto that is wide spread or retail. So I think crypto mostly (FOR NOW) rides on sentiment and greed, and I think name branding and technicals are strongest for sentiment and greed. BTC is a house hold name, so people know what it is and when they think of crypto bitcoin is the first they think about, even my mom knows about btc. And SOL is an amazing network and has lots of projects going on. We'll see. The market is really crazy right now. Generally. But BTC seems to be following the 4 year cycle pattern, which is hopeful, but we'll see. It's all a gamble in the end huh? lol. GL

cc99v

I purchase many things using LTC or XMR, if you get my drift

Majestic_Plane_1656

The creators said "DOGE will always be inflationary" and right there it was dead. BNB LTC ETH TRX BCH are all deflationary. Why bother with DOGE.

SameWeekend13

But Reddit told me BTC is going to $50 and LTC to $30. Still waiting for it.

No mention of Litecoin (LTC)? LTC going to zero ?

HowOldWasAisya

Haven't traded crypto since 2022, thought I'd check in and share my dead alts: VET RUNE (thorchain) LTC BCH (only one that's semi holding up)

This-Adhesiveness-52

Only buying ETH and LTC, maby some SOL but XRP is just paid influencers that promote the hell out off that coin. It is almost as worthless as a memecoin. Banks gonna switch to another xrplikecoin that's cheaper when xrp gets to expensive. It's all hype. That it's even in the top 5 is crazy. That promotion team really paid off. BTC is to expensive.

GeorgeOrrange

never before had the leadership of Core and blockstream exposed as connected to the most notorious child sex trafficker in human history.. for that reason alone everyone should swap to BCH(which works better than LTC) and send BTC to zero leaving the oligarchs holding the bags

SameWeekend13

LTC mentioned only 4 times that is sad.

ImaFamilyGuy

This round I'm in ETH, LTC, DOGE.

Current-Cycle7571

LTC is great, but the price .... 🤣Rip

DanielTheTechie

\>Why LTC specifically? Because it was one of the few coins that matched better with my strategy setup and my scanner found it. It had started a downtrend in the 4H timeframe and at the same time it had a pullback in the 45 min timeframe (the one I operate) that approached its price very close to its local high, in comparison to the pullback of the other coins, so I could enter with a bigger position size while keeping the risk low, which made the trade seducing for me. Unfortunately, a hour ago the market had a sudden spike and I'm back to my entry price again. 😁 \>Most large caps will probably follow the overall market trend If you see the big picture, yes, most of them share similar graph shapes, but as you zoom in, the details and the proportions vary. For example, if Solana's price rises 2% and Ethereum 4%, it's not guaranteed that the next day if Solana rises 1% then Ethereum will rise 2%, or even that at some point one rises while the other falls.

PirateSKB

Why LTC specifically? Most large caps will probably follow the overall market trend tbh

Shorting in LTC. Please, orange man, help me to reach my take profit. Tweet something stupid, or just tweet.

ADA and LTC are vapor. Vapor can pump tho fyi. ETC did last cycle. You should buy TAO.

Right-Caregiver-9988

I’m gonna stick to stocks… Apple alone has outperformed BTC over the last 5 years. I used to love SOL and LTC but crypto is too volatile, addictive and stressful for me. If I’m gonna HODL anything it’s gonna be a tangible asset.

"Network effect", but yet LTC has like 40x on the onchain tx volume of DOGE and sits at 25% market cap. Everything is totally made up in this space.

CryptoInvestorguy

Agreed! As a HODLer of ETH and LTC, I did buy 100$ worth of Elon this morning. Too good to pass up but 95% of my portfolio is ETH and LTC. Fundamentally good projects

RadiantIOrange5983

LTC is the only one on your list that is peer-to-peer digital currency, as crypto was originally intended to be. Thus, I like LTC and believe all your other choices will eventually become worthless. However, it will likely take decades for many of them to go to zero, and some could be good investments in the short to midterm.

whataboutbenson

OP why would you buy something that you think might go to zero? Or that you don't really know what it is? If things like Nano, LTC, ETC, and a million others haven't gone to zero yet then there's no way that Bitcoin will. It can go a lot lower and stay there though.

divergence777

XMR and LINK. If LTC gets down to $40 or below I don't see how it's not worth accumulating.

Best-Jackfruit5593

I like HYPE, the only reason why I’m not investing in it is because I feel like it’s dropped hard like the others. Still hasn’t dropped to 50% from last high. What’s CANTON and QNT? What do you believe on them more than the likes of ADA, AVAX or LTC?

Memezilla_hatchling

Swap ada and avax for Hype and CANTON and maybe LTC for Qnt and I think that's decent

Dude I’m down 40% on LTC I’m holding for 5 years if that’s what it takes

biba8163

LTC is $5 above its 2013 high

Nervous-Chemistry245

damn, LTC coming close to 5-year low

NightKnight_CZ

Exactly and it´s doing fine against ETH and soon hopefully breaking out against BTC too after 7 years of downtrend - who could survive that? LTC did

Big_Maybe_8675

I use cash. Litecoin, bitcoin then lastly gold in that order. The reason gold is last is because I need to either use it directly, or sell it for cash. Only times I've used bitcoin were for large purchases between me circle who all have BTC/LTC.

Litecoin is trying to break out of the ongoing downtrend from 2019 - 7 years already against Bitcoin. Litecoin successfully break out and is now curving up against Ethereum, for the first time since 2018 era. LTC survived, in the deep stinky swamp of agony and depression and still... it´s gonna comeback in next few months - years

NightKnight_CZ

VC coins gonna die. Meme coins gonna prob. die Return of Proof of Work a.k.a. we have the 1st best = Bitcoin What is second and third? Well we have LTC which has been in downtrend/sideways since 2018 Same goes for DGB We have ETC - the former "ETH split PoW from PoS" XVG... XMR

Hyphen_Nation

Yeah, give or take a little. I had been thinking $1100-ish. What I am wondering about is how are people feeling about risk. People holding gold and silver might not want to hold ETH...so I am wondering if it will go below the '22 low? The other one I have a soft spot for, is LTC. I don't see it talked about much on here any more, I might see if it's going to hold I the $30s or drop down to $20s. If $20s, def will be a buy for me. $30 might be, too.

2011, many accounts here on reddit since 2009 but here's my main crypto related account from 2012 back when i used to mine dogecoin on my Radeon HD 7970ghz, owned a lot of bitcoin, didn't think it would be what it became, started mining LTC on scrypt based ASIC's the moment they were created and available, i'm the earliest person i know to not make good money on crypto because life got in the way and i just didn't go back to it until way too late comparitively, i still own my Dogecoin Josh Wise Nascar t-shirt: u/EarlGreyMakeItSo

Don't worry you missed nothing. It was an old reddit memecoin that was pretty popular if you check the subs garlicbreadmemes and garlicoin. Garlicoin was made out of that, maybe about 10 years ago? Unlike Dogecoin it flopped though. It was also based off of BTC instead of LTC. The chain still works and has miners but it's a ghostchain and the community is basically dead. It was one of the early PoW's though.

The ONLY question an astute investor should be asking themsevles is, *"Is the risk/reward of BTC still worth it or should I leave crypto entirely?"* The Total Alt Marketcap is almost down to where it was 5 years ago. Even some the most long term successful Alts are below their prices 4 years ago, 8 years ago or even 12 years ago. - LTC was $50 in 2013. It is ~$50 today. - XRP was $2.30 in 2017. It's $1.60 today. - ETH was $4,800 in 2021. It's $2,100 today.

LTC 😂😂😂 you still bag holding

> they’ll jump back in at much higher prices like always You're making it seem like crypto growth is inevitable and coins will continue to go higher. This is not the case. Even the most successful long term coins are showing negative growth and the entire Alt marketcap has never never given up this much value where we are almost at a point where we were 5 years ago. - LTC was $50 in 2013. It is ~$50 today. - XRP was $2.30 in 2017. It's $1.60 today. - ETH was $4,800 in 2021. It's $2,100 today. The Total Alt Marketcap will soon be approaching January 2021 levels if the bear market downward trend continues. | | Jan. 2021 | January. 2026 |:-----------|:------------:|:------------:|:------------:| | BTC | $0.546 Trillion | $1.459 Trillion | Stablecoins | $0.027 Trillion | $0.32 Trillion | Total Alt.

I'm watching closely LTC. If the price go to $50, I will buy a huge amount. But at $60, it's still a good buy 😉

You should look into LTC if you like old school chains. What you find as you research may blow your mind.

There are thousands of Layer 1 networks and the capacity is less than 1% used. Premature optimization is the root of all evil. Solana, AVAX, BCH, LTC, all work great with practically zero fees.

So the dip is over lol 😂, we on our way to ATH ? Specially for LTC ?

libretumente

LTC holders still sleeping well thank God

The last leg of XMR’s run was fueled by a $280M hack. The hackers swapped the BTC and LTC for Monero to delete their trace. It’s back to where it was before that trade happened

Stablecoins and Litecoin solve different parts of the payment problem — stablecoins minimize price risk for accounting and settlement, while assets like LTC compete more on neutrality, censorship resistance, and network reliability, so the relationship is less direct competition and more a question of which constraints matter in a given use case.

Its okay at the end of the day. I think its hard to understand what i mean in general and where i am comeing from. as you said, the current price behavior kind of indicates a shift / pivot. Uncertain times where the once like known system is not the same anymore, this already can be observed in the altcoins. Some of the folks only know assets where it is up only, DCA only works when the price is increasing but a price increase can stop completly for decades or forever. Thats something that is completely ignored but is happening for ETH, LTC, SOL as we speak. The chance that it is going to happen for Bitcoin as well is now on the table.

LTC

SouthTippBass

There were only 3 coins on Coinbase in 2017. BTC, ETH, LTC.

LTC will do the trick this year :)

pop-1988

Litecoin doesn't merge-mine. DOGE merge-mines with LTC Several coins merge-mine with BTC

Good reality check. Even before the October crash, if you exclude LINK and LTC, most were still losers compared to their value 5 or 3 years ago.
