Personally I'm not convinced the 10% jump was due to this worthless hard fork, there's even Litecoin Gold happening now but LTC is currently correcting.
I think it's more to do with LitePay, as well as the long-term prospect of a cheap and fast payment system, which is what Litecoin offers.
That and the Lightning Network. Once this is rolled out and has the Litecoin stamp of approval it'll go to the moon.
