No, for onchain transactions I use LTC.

Little bit of both. LTC has all the same functionality and then some, albeit with a smaller network. I hold both. 

DirkDiggler1888

Your first paragraph describes LTC. The question has to be, why does LTC Fiat value = BTC/1000? I'm not saying it shouldn't, I'm asking why it does.

>I'm invested in both but I'm looking more into LTC as it's highly under valued and it has more chances of ETF to get approved. Both are locks for ETFs and Solana has about 17 pending ETFs compared to Litecoin having just 4([source](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G0cimaSXsAA5SE0?format=jpg&name=large)). There also seems like far more institutional appetite for Solana based on DAT activity. >Not just that but LTC has been generating highest number of use case and surpassing every coin including Bitcoin. LTC's use case is just payments and it lacks the most popular asset for payments: stablecoins. Solana has staking(savings/yield), lending, swaps, perp trading, tokenized stock trading(pre-IPO and public), tokenized pokemon cards, tokenized time, NFTs, DePIN, gaming, etc. Where are you researching crypto that led you to these conclusions?

LTC is to old, i don't think he ever back to trend But SOL also very risky

More bitcoin and ditch LTC, ETC and BCH. Those are all irrelevant forks

Nope, They are almost at their ATH so this makes LTC a goo play where you can 2X to 3X from current prices.

jwz9904

where are my LTC LRC bros?

Literally right now Litecoin (LTC) looks like a good buy. At the least you can 2X when it goes to $200 but you could even 3X to 4X in mid term.

On LTC? When has it ever had fees that high

jormor4

Litecoin (LTC) and Monero (XMR) LTC has wider acceptance and is similar enough to BTC that people feel it’s relatively safe and simple. XMR is probably the best example of digital cash because it’s private by default. There are some Neither of these are instant, but they have a good balance of the best factors for payments IMO. I hold both, support both, and feel they’re both undervalued. I feel these are both truly here to stay but LTC is the safer option to hold because it’s less likely for large governments to try and ban its use or attack the network.

>Over time, more groups (like institutions or countries) get interested Again not for infinity. >When people sell their Bitcoin for cars or houses, that Bitcoin doesn’t disappear, someone else now owns it But nothing guarantees you that that they will buy it for more than you bought it. >meeting waves of new demand Where do they come from? A second earth? What if people decide LTC or BCH is now the Store of Value? > The demand outpacing supply is what we’re experiencing and unless that changes that’s what we have to measure. That is exactly what I'm saying, you just assume the demand, which is wishful thinking. And even dangerous when that demand only comes from expecting to sell it for more later. >Again to my original post, this is hard to wrap our heads around because it’s hard to measure anything outside of fiat guard rails. This topic does not concern FIAT at all with the only exception that you have to sell your BTC for FIAT before you can use it because BTC will not a widely used MoE. Which means BTC can be replaced with every other asset with low or now growth. An asset with consistent burn would even be more scarce.

Familiar_Television1

Put it all in LTC and sell at 150K or 200K. Then buy 50% PAXG and 50% USDT in an earning account and come back next cycle

BenniBoom707

Based on what I am seeing LTC and HBAR have the best chance to Pop this cycle. I am also deep into these 4 small caps: RARI, IDEX, FOX and AERGO. I have already created a nice bag due to these and expect something big from each. AERGO was literally 8X up just a few months back. I think $1 is definitely coming soon. They all have a chance to 10-20X or else I wouldn’t be in them….

I just converted my LTC to BTC because what kind of snowflake company fires their intern (or I'm sorry, claims to fire their intern since that's something they can say without proving a word of it to anyone) for a roast about hairline? Good news is my buy in price was just over $100 so I'm up a little which probably only cancels out the dicking from Coinbase's spread.

>All major blockchains sell their blockspace by auction. No, most blockchain have a fee market where the supply of space is elastic and therefore minimum fees a re found. In fact I only know of BTC and its clone LTC to have a fixed blocksize and therefore an auction.

Litecoin is a community project with no premine, dev fees etc. who’s going to pay for the wage? Are you donating a % of the LTC you buy?

LTC is so cool. No need 2 talk on its behalf, it speaks volumes 4 itself.

Hope they buy more LTC truly. Very undervalued.

misterbiggler

this is the sega to microsoft, PS. It had its run and died out. LTC exists solely to pay out miners for mining. Nobody else cars for it,

>Litecoin has more volume in a day than most cryptos yeah because it's been around forever, trading volume doesn't mean anything other than signifying the coin isn't completely dead. >it’s got almost 200k LTC in MWEB ok... grats? >regardless of how big or small BitPay is it’s still the largest service for businesses moving crypto It's not though.

Holiday_Return_4112

Im a big fan of LTC soley because i can use it to buy products/ services on the dark web. Its a great tool for cheap and quick transfers. But they hype has died down - which is unforchent Do you think we will see the old ATH? Maybe maybe not. LTC is how Silver is to gold in my opion.

CapitalIncome845

libretumente

CounterAdmirable4218

LTC stands out as a cryptocurrency as it is the most used crypto on BitPay. That’s what it is meant to be doing.

KourtneyBoos16

That’s a pretty detailed case for LTC, gives me something to think about.

jawni

None of this really matters. 1. Every major coin has treasury plays. 2. Every crypto has plenty of lost coins. 3. Every coin has a major valuation gap to BTC. It is definitely not the "most used crypto for payments globally" that's just BitPay propaganda you fell for. 4. If those upgrades truly mattered, you would be showcasing the results of those upgrades, rather than just saying they happened. 5. We can do thought experiments all day long about how much upside any coin has compared to BTC. 6. It isn't a narrative play, nor is it a fundamental play. It's fundamentals have been severely marginalized with the advent of faster and cheaper chains, no long is it a selling point to simply be faster and cheaper than BTC. It's narrative strength is even weaker, when it comes to strong narratives in crypto(payments/stablecoins, other RWA, defi), LTC doesn't fit with any of them. Just think about it, how much of what you wrote in this post was true a year ago? 2 years ago? 3 years ago? Even further in the past? The only new thing is a treasury vehicle like MEIP buying it, so outside of that, all of these supposed catalysts have been around for a while, which tells me they aren't really catalysts, otherwise we'd have already seen the explosive movement you're expecting. It's like putting a mentos into a coke bottle but then it doesn't erupt after years of waiting... at what point do you consider that you've made a mistake?

Minute-Lake-1819

Even if Bitcoin is the “do it all” chain, isn’t it smart to have a backup? LTC is the next best thing. Maybe even improved in some ways

neowar3020

LTC will take everybody with their guard down, this usually happens this way, and again everybody wil fomo into it.

AutoModerator

Post is by: Brewersty and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1nboj0o/ltc_stands_for_long_term_crypto/ While everyone’s chasing trends, LTC quietly stacking every reason for a breakout and barely anyone’s talking about it. Here’s why I believe LTC is preparing for its most explosive move yet in 2025. # 1/ The MEIP Effect Most coins dream of attention from big money, Litecoin has it. MEI Pharma invested $100M exclusively into LTC, and that number recently doubled to $200M. This is a treasury strategy, a long-term hold. If the allocation grows to $400M, $600M, or more, that’s 4-5% of total supply potentially removed from circulation permanently. # 2/ 4.2M LTC Could Be Gone From Markets Forever Based on wallet behavior, an estimated 4.2M LTC (\~5% of the total supply) may be locked up for good. Whether for treasury, cold storage, or strategic reserve, this silent drain creates one of the most favorable supply dynamics in crypto today. And with a fixed supply of just 84M and emission already halved, every LTC off the market matters. # 3/ Valuation Gap is Wild At $113 and an $8.7B mcap, Litecoin looks like a forgotten relic to many. But let’s zoom out: – Same decentralized architecture as BTC – Faster, cheaper, and more scalable – Clear legal classification as a commodity by the CFTC, no SEC drama – Used more for payments than any other coin on BitPay – Second most used for payments on CoinGate, NOWPayments & Bitrefill – Integrated into PayPal, Visa, Coinbase, Robinhood, Fidelity It’s the most used crypto for payments globally and it trades at 1.5% of Bitcoin’s price. # 4/ Litecoin is the Infrastructure You Forgot Was There People forget: – First coin to activate SegWit – First Lightning Network tx happened on Litecoin – MWEB privacy upgrade already live – 14 years uptime, no hacks, no scandals, no drama. # 5/ The Asymmetry is Real Here’s a thought experiment: – If BTC = $500K, and Litecoin reverts to just 5% of BTC’s value, LTC = $25K – If BTC = $1M, and Litecoin climbs to 10%, LTC = $100K Even conservatively, LTC at $1K is a fundamentally sound bet ,not just hopium. # 6/ Not a Narrative Play Litecoin isn’t trying to be the next Solana, not chasing AI, gaming, or memecoins. It’s simply sound money. No pre-mine, no central issuer, no VC tax, no ambiguity. Just pure, peer-to-peer digital cash the way Satoshi intended. And in a world increasingly divided between regulated assets and speculative chaos, that clarity is going to matter. Sometimes, you just need to pay attention to what’s quietly winning. Litecoin might be the most inevitable. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

DangerHighVoltage111

The vast majority of chains don't care to become money. Most are PoS which is not suited for money because it is not sound for various reasons. BTC is too crippled for money and went full steam ahead with it's digital gold narrative. So there really are just BCH, LTC and XMR. And LTC is just as crippled as BTC.

greenlitt

altcoins have a purpose rn for sure. i make regular purchases with LTC because BTC fees are too expensive. privacy coins offer something that is useful for those trying to remain anonymous

TheDoge420

So if ETH is digital oil now then we can get back to LTC as the silver to BTC gold unless another coin is worthy of the silver status I might argue PEPE but he’s so green more like cash

KGB4L

We have a lot of those in Ukraine (not this specific one, but physical stores). They are pretty much p2p places to buy or sell crypto for instant cash. Their rates are pretty much market rates. This stuff isn’t too regulated in the country, so they are free to operate without much oversight. Remember, not everyone uses crypto as an investment tool. 90% of the time I use it to send or receive money abroad at an instant. USDT, USDC, Sol, LTC or whatever. This is the target audience for these stores.

ScalySaucerSurfer

Selling is a taxable event, buying is not. I don’t see the problem, just tell them the truth? If you immediately exchange LTC to XMR there will be no tax. Obviously check your local laws as they can differ from mine. This was a question how to buy Monero, not how to evade taxes. Let’s not associate cryptocurrency with criminal activity. Frankly, with Monero you can tell them whatever you want, it’s not like they can see your transactions.

It's cheap and fast. When crypto is more widely accepted, LTC will be used to buy coffee and BTC will be used to buy cars.

DeadPhish710421

May I ask why you consider LTC a blue chip? I bought a lot of it over 10 years ago and the lost cost opportunity is so atrocious it makes me sick. Its probably the biggest mistake I ever made in life.

ImmediateManager9747

I hold only proof of work, fav being LTC and BTC

SalteeKibosh

You listed 4 hand grenades... Never hold a hand grenade too long... These coins are great for riding the pump and dump waves of the uber-wealthy (ellen and crew) and other than that, these coins are WORTHLESS. Once these assholes get tired or exhaust their bag enough, they'll move on to the next target. Don't bag hold for these douches, dump that shit and buy BTC, ETH, LTC, and other blue-chips.

Plastic_Barber1201

LTC has half the daily addresses of ETH but a fraction of the market cap? That asymmetry is begging to be corrected. This is the catalyst

lovefunhere12

This is a big move for Litecoin  adding smart contracts through LitVM with treasury backing changes the game. Instead of just being “digital silver,” LTC finally gets tools to compete in DeFi. Luxxfolio’s support makes it more than hype  it shows real money and long-term commitment are behind this upgrade. That kind of signal can flip the narrative from “stagnant old coin” to “serious contender.” Kinda reminds me of what WhiteRock is doing with tokenized real-world assets  tech plus credible backing is what actually drives adoption, not just slogans.

SameWeekend13

Now can you do for Litecoin (LTC) also man.

Upbeat_Cat_3811

I have an EXACTLY similar case, except the amount in LTC was around $8 at the time, and it was also around April. So far, I haven't received a response, and according to what I've read about other cases, it takes many months to get a response. If there's any update, I'd appreciate it if you could let me know.

TRYybest

It depends on you and what you want. Low risk? BTC, ETH and SOL. Riskier but bigger returns in the future? HBAR, LINK, LTC. Low MC coins are likely to maximize your gains as well. A good contender for that spot would be ONDO, it has everything what it needs to become successful.

brandonholm

Because LTC doesn’t really matter. It’s more of a beta test chain for features that might eventually make their way to Bitcoin, but other than that, it doesn’t really matter. Other coins like solana also don’t matter, but they’re newer so there’s still a lot of hype around them pumping the price. I expect solana to be worthless in a couple more cycles.

cassydd

Once upon a time I could pay for beers with BCH, and that actually worked since 0-conf is supported and fees are negligible. There are other currencies that work just as well (LTC, DOGE, etc). BTC isn't one of them.

drexelldrexell

Hoping it will tank along with LTC. I’ve been itching to get back in.

I definitely got lost in the (vague) details here, Just as a starter, there's tons of mineable memecoins, heck, doge was the original memecoin and you can still mine it / merge mine it with LTC or other Scrypt coins... However - this is definitely a different idea than straight mining an actual blockchain to get token rewards, BUT - I have NO idea based on this what the miners would actually be "mining" or doing (No final asset to get paid confuses me for sure)

Im a big fan of LTC it dosent get the flowers it deserves. Originaly it was meant to be like btc lil bro Like how silver is to gold. Low fees with high speed transfers. People use LTC on a daily basis ( Dark web ect) In the UK we cant buy monero, Our methord is ltc - cake wallet - monero (obvs you can change with diffrent crypto but ltc is cheaper fee) I just wish more people were on board. Bear season is not now bro its a fair price atm Im buying it when its 50£ or below

Do not trade if you are new to crypto. This is not stock. The crypto casino is open 24/7, and you can get Rekt in your sleep. Find a good long term Asset like BTC or ETH and just DCA into them over time. Time in the market will always be better than Timing the market unless you are a black belt trader. For a good top 20 coin to also DCA into, look into HBAR and LTC, these have the potential to 10-20X over the next few years and are still Top 20 coins with massive utility and partnerships.

tacocat_-_racecar

Start out as a BTC maxi. If you grab a few random alts you might get in on an alt season, but being new I would not advise. LTC is another good choice IMO. But if I were you I’d seriously do research and just observe this market and go in the next bear. That way you won’t feel hurt when your portfolio drops. Definitely invest in a cold wallet. And a good one that is BTC only, like Bitbox

I still believe LTC is way underhyped with this in the making

BeckyMaz

The Big Two (Crypto’s Apple + Amazon)/ Bitcoin (BTC): digital gold, store of value. Ethereum (ETH): smart contracts, DeFi, NFTs. Blockchains (“Ethereum competitors”) Solana (SOL): Fast, cheap, strong ecosystem. Chainlink (LINK): Decentralised oracle network (brings real-world data on-chain). Avalanche (AVAX): Competes with ETH/SOL for DeFi + scaling. Utility / Older but still popular: Litecoin (LTC): “silver to Bitcoin’s gold.” Ripple (XRP): bank-focused payments (controversial with lawsuits). Chainlink (LINK): oracle network (gets real-world data into blockchains). Stellar (XLM): cross-border payments.

Believe it or not.. I’ve made peace with it. I had many opportunity with btc and was involved in trading BTC/LTC on GDAX/coinbase pro/Binance. I no longer have any BTC. Always just traded it and made out well but not near as well had I just HODL. It’s been the same experience with Stocks/options. Give ya an example, I made $29k in a few hours on one options contract six years ago. I was so proud of myself. Had I executed and just kept the shares today they be worth $800k. I don’t feel any less pride about making that $29k. You never know, tomorrow isn’t guaranteed. Everyone’s different but I’d rather be 27 years old with $29k than being told if you live/make it to 33 you’ll have $800k. And at the time I wanted 8-9 mchickens more than I wanted a bitcoin.

To me LTC charts always look sketchy but for some reason they always pull out a crazy upside move.
