Litecoin Could Triple Against Bitcoin (LTC/BTC)As much as crypto annoys me these days, I can't help but still pay attention to this wild market. There are some red flags - a lot of uncertainty and major paradigm shifts apparently looming on the horizon. Bitcoin has really slowed down, when it comes to price increases and volatility. It's also now associated with political polarization, as it has been predictably co-opted by wealthy interests, aimed at centralizing financial control and surveillance. Nevertheless, cryptocurrencies chug along. I'll admit, I've always liked Litecoin. Maybe it's because it was the first cryptocurrency I bought where I realized, hey, Bitcoin isn't the best at what it's supposed to do. It was a lot faster and cheaper, and remains a preferred medium of exchange for crypto transfers. This is evidenced by its growing number of active addresses, when compared with Bitcoin's stagnation. bitinfocharts.com bitinfocharts.com Bitcoin's growth has stagnated, when it comes to its use as a transfer of value, whereas Litecoin continues to grow slowly. Litecoin's active addresses are also only about 50% less when compared with Bitcoin, making its "adoption" not all too far behind. Of course, there are probably many flaws with Litecoin, as there are with cryptocurrencies as a payment method in general, but when you look at the current crypto market cap and how much Litecoin is actually used, it seems to be undervalued when compared to all the other fluff out there. It just works. Its max supply is also only 4x that of Bitcoin. It's unlikely to ever achieve a market cap similar, but even if it it goes 4x from here in USD terms (taking it just above its past ATH), its market cap would be the same as Dogecoin, around $37B. That's honestly pretty funny to me. The only thing I like about crypto is that it's marginally better than a lotto ticket. Maybe if things get even more dystopian, owning some crypto isn't a terrible idea. Things are absurd as it is. I don't like it, but that's how things have been going. For some quick technicals. Litecoin is on its strongest tear against ETH since 2018: Litecoin also broke down from a major uptrend against the USD a while ago, but if it gets back in (currently above $170ish), it could fuel a pretty explosive rally. Based on the above LTC/BTC chart, there is room for a pretty large upside correction. HOWEVER, it's important to keep in mind that markets are fragile overall right now. If Bitcoin makes a sizeable correction, back down to $70-80k or deeper, Litecoin may drop down to some lows not seen in some time. It's also important to remember that serious upside for Litecoin has previously occurred near market tops. This is not meant as financial advice! This represents my opinion and feelings about the markets, which are always evolving. -Victor Cobra

Ltcbtc maybe chickens can fly?This has taken longer than I ever thought to develop but... It's the pure catch-up play for the masses who want sound money and missed the BTC run. Fairly launched, not constrained by the politics of BTC Devs, it has integrated privacy for those who want it. On ramps are well developed across the industry. It'll get an etf. Could go to range high as an occasional oscillator vs..btc or could break out of the existing long term range like doge did last cycle. Ltcusdt birthed doge and it's merge mined together so there's more than meets the eye between them. Head and shoulders reversal playing out vs. Eth possibly? Time as always will tell.

LITECOIN BITCOIN (BEST-CASE)Like Bitcoin, CRYPTOCAP:LTC is first and foremost a digital currency that can be exchanged peer-to-peer, untrusted and securely, very quickly and at minimal cost. The modifications made to the Bitcoin blockchain to give rise to Litecoin’s blockchain required only minor efforts in terms of IT development, as most of the innovation came from Bitcoin. Nevertheless, Litecoin’s strength lies in the fact that these changes are few but significant: A ”proof of work” that uses the Scrypt hash function rather than SHA-256 for Bitcoin Block creation four times faster, with an average interval of 2.5 minutes instead of 10 minutes Total number of units four times greater, with 84 million instead of 21 million Mining difficulty changes every two and a half days instead of every two weeks On the other hand, as with Bitcoin, the issuance of new litecoins is halved every 4 years (halving): since August 2019, miners have received 12.5 litecoins as a reward for each block validated.

Can Litecoin to Bitcoin ratio reverse?The LTC/BTC chart currently looks weak, but there’s still a glimmer of hope. The channel may act as support, potentially enabling a trend reversal. For this to happen, we’d need to see swift, decisive moves with large candles—a pattern Litecoin has historically demonstrated it can achieve. If the trend reverses, the Fibonacci levels at 0.0128 and 0.0268 could be key targets. At Bitcoin’s current market cap, these levels would correspond to Litecoin market caps of approximately $100 billion and $200 billion, respectively. Meanwhile, the LTC/USDT chart looks quite bullish, which further supports the potential for a significant move in the near term. Wishing you a Happy New Year! Remember to always do your own research.

The Litecoin VS Bitcoin trend is changing.For years LTC has been bleeding against BTC. It looks like this trend could have finally ended, at least for a short term (possible few months). Very similar to Ethereum vs Bitcoin the chart of LTC silently has changed the trend and is screaming buy. LTC will start to rise in value against BTC and is a very good trade to gain more bitcoin over a fairly short period of time. Lets take a look at the charts. On the left its the 2 week chart of LTC/BTC The price action seems to have found a bottom along with a lot of indicators. Top indicator is the trusty RSI, with a bottoming out and strength has made a significant move up. The middle indicator is the RCI3 lines which has just made 2 important crosses with the red and blue lines quietly gaining strength and momentum. On the bottom is the BBWP. The main thick line has turned blue, and historically blue is the best buy area for this indicator. On the right is the monthly chart with 3 indicators respectively bellow. The first indicator is the RCI3lines for second time. We can see for the last many months it has been flatlining but recently the red line has sliced through the GREEN and is trying to cut through the BLUE (possibly January). The Stochastic RSI is showing momentum is coming into this trade, however it has not confirmed yet. The red line would have to cross the 20 level like the blue line for it be official. On the very bottom is the ADX and DI. The GREEN line has made an all important cross above the red line which shows a change in the trend. The purple line shows the strength in this trend. The strength a the moment is not strong, however we can see that it also has changed it's direction and looking to start climbing as the move gets stronger. The first major target (take profits) for this trade would be at the 5000 sat level. getting above that could lead anywhere from 8000 to 15000 that has a lot of time to play out and still remains to be seen Thank you for checking my chart.

Litecoin (LTCBTC) First Bullish Trend EverWe are about to see something never seen before on this pair: It is the first uptrend ever, higher highs and higher lows for LTCBTC (Litecoin vs Bitcoin). After going down for more than five years, we have undeniable reversal signals after a new All-Time Low. This is happening now and it has been going for an entire month. The first signal came four weeks ago as a high volume Doji when the ATL was hit. This is followed by a bullish continuation and then a bullish breakout. We now have the final confirmation with a new full green candle this week. LTCBTC is showing the highest volume since November 2021. We don't know how this will develop but it will be a very strong bullish wave. It can be something fast, that happens in 2 or 3 months, straight up. Or it can turn out into something slow, with 6-7 months of growth. The most likely scenario is the first one, fast and strong. This is a friendly reminder; get ready for something great. Cryptocurrency will continue to grow. The Altcoins offer the highest potential for massive gains. Thank you for reading. Namaste.

Litecoin: A Major Opportunity in the Next Altcoin Cycle?Litecoin is poised to be a significant gainer in the upcoming altcoin cycle, alongside many legacy cryptocurrencies (xrp, xlm, zcash, eos, icx, ada etc) On the LTC/BTC trading pair, Litecoin has been in a prolonged downtrend since its peak in 2018, experiencing a massive drop of over 96%. However, there are signs that the tide may be turning. Bullish divergence is forming on the weekly and monthly charts, signaling potential upside momentum. A conservative target would be a price increase up to the second green line on the chart, which represents a 6x growth from current levels. However, considering the vastly improved fundamentals over the years—such as consistent accumulation by Grayscale and ongoing ETF discussions—a scenario where Litecoin recovers to 50% below its all-time high seems plausible. Keep an eye on the charts and fundamentals; Litecoin might surprise many in this cycle.

LTCBTC - strong bullish divergence on MonthlyLitecoin Analysis: Fundamentals Stronger Than Ever Litecoin is showing a lot of promise with multiple strong indicators aligning for potential explosive growth: Fundamentals Strengthening: Grayscale has been consistently accumulating Litecoin throughout the year, with recent months seeing the largest purchases. ETF Approval Pending: A potential game-changer, as this would bring more institutional interest and liquidity to Litecoin. Hashrate Surge: Litecoin's hashrate is climbing drastically, indicating growing network security and miner activity. Miner Reserves at All-Time Lows: Reduced supply on exchanges could lead to upward price pressure. LTC/BTC Pair at Historical Lows: Litecoin appears undervalued compared to Bitcoin, presenting an excellent risk-to-reward opportunity. Price Targets First Target: 4x (Yes, this is the starting point for a long-term play.) Second Target: 8x (Aligned with the second green resistance line.) Third Target: 12x Final Goal: 20x – Timing is uncertain but highly likely in the future. Litecoin continues to hold its narrative as the "Silver to Bitcoin's Gold," and the ETF storyline will only strengthen this positioning. IMO, it's one of the safest buys right now with massive upside potential. And I will repeat, bullish divergence on monthly.

LTC/BTC hit bottom with high probabilityLitecoin: From Memecoin Buzz to Real Value 🚀 Recently, Litecoin made waves on X (formerly Twitter) by cheekily branding itself a “memecoin,” sparking a surge of attention. But let’s not forget: Litecoin is far more than a meme, and the fundamentals suggest significant upside potential. Here’s why the LTC/BTC ratio could skyrocket: Bullish Narratives: 1️⃣ High Probability of SEC ETF Approval – Litecoin is a top candidate for institutional adoption. 2️⃣ Privacy with MWEB – Optional privacy features add unique value compared to competitors. 3️⃣ Adoption Leader – Litecoin dominates BitPay transactions. 4️⃣ Merge Mining with Dogecoin – Litecoin remains a cornerstone for Dogecoin’s network security. Technical Outlook: Key resistance levels on the LTC/BTC chart suggest 0.005 as a midterm goal. With strong market momentum, this could even break higher depending on the broader crypto environment. 🔥 Watch this space as LTC transitions from “memecoin fun” to showcasing its real utility. Are you positioned for the breakout?
