At the beginning of the cryptocurrency boom, Bitcoin seemed to be the unquestioned leader. Up until early this year, Bitcoin accounted for the vast majority of the industry’s market capitalization; then, in a span of just weeks, Ethereum, Ripple, and other currencies rushed to catch up. While Bitcoin is still in the lead, the rapid turnover in the industry has some analysts debating if cryptocurrencies are actually currencies. Some are predicting that even bigger changes could be ahead. Among them? The idea that cryptocurrencies could come to replace cash entirely.


After much investigations and research i have made about how to earn more profit on cryptocurrency legitimately, I will recommend forex #spam Investment Platform and cloud mining(forex #spam.io) as it has been relatively on for a while now as it was launched mid 2016 but has become the largest Cryptocurrency Investment Platform right now with a volume of over 150 million dollars where you get different ROI’s on your invested cryptocurrency after every 10 days. It supports variety of cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin and other Altcoins.

Possible Advantages to a Crypto Future

A report by futurism highlights some of the possible outcomes, should cryptocurrencies surpass fiat currencies at some point in the future. One important consideration is that cryptocurrencies cannot be manipulated quite as easily as fiat currency, largely due to their decentralized and unregulated status. Beyond that, cryptocurrencies could better support the concept of a universal basic income than fiat currencies would. As a matter of fact, some programs have already experimented with the use of cryptocurrencies as means of distributing a universal basic income.

Further, cryptocurrencies could help to get rid of intermediaries in everyday transactions. This could cut costs for businesses and help out consumers.

Possible Concerns if Cryptocurrencies Replace Cash

Of course, there are also some huge challenges and concerns with this scenario. If cryptocurrencies outpace cash in terms of usage, traditional currencies will lose value without any means of recourse. Should cryptocurrencies take over entirely, new infrastructure would have to be developed in order to allow the world to adapt. There would inevitably be difficulties with the transition, as cash could become incompatible quite quickly, leaving some people with lost assets. Established financial institutions would likely have to scramble to change their ways.

It is important to note that while the initial Bitcoin-mania saw quite a few businesses offer to accept the cryptocurrency, that list has steadily dwindled brining back the skepticism about its use a medium of exchange.

Beyond the impact of a cryptocurrency future on individual consumers and on financial institutions, governments themselves would suffer. Governmental control over central currencies is key to regulation in many ways, and cryptocurrencies would operate with much less government purview. Governments could no longer, for example, determine how much of a currency to print in response to external and internal pressures. Rather, the generation of new coins or tokens would be dependent upon independent mining operations.

Regardless of how individual investors may feel about the prospect of a switch from standard cash to cryptocurrencies, it is likely out of anyone’s hands. Of course, with ample speculation abounding that the cryptocurrency industry is a bubble that is destined to pop, it’s also possible that predictions of a crypto future could be overblown. What is difficult for investors is that, as with all things crypto-related, changes happen incredibly quickly, and predicting them is always tough.

American entrepreneur and vocal crypto advocate John McAfee has doubled down on his $1 million by 2020 prediction for Bitcoin (BTC).

Taking stock of community sentiment in light of Bitcoin’s recent price fluctuations, McAfee wrote on July 15 that he was “laughing his f------ ass off” at the seemingly overblown negativity:

After much investigations and research i have made about how to earn more profit on cryptocurrency legitimately, I will recommend forex #spam Investment Platform and cloud mining(forex #spam.io) as it has been relatively on for a while now as it was launched mid 2016 but has become the largest Cryptocurrency Investment Platform right now with a volume of over 150 million dollars where you get different ROI’s on your invested cryptocurrency after every 10 days. It supports variety of cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin and other Altcoins.

“Bitcoin is at the mid 10's and people worry. LMFAO!! Why do you pay attention to weekly fluctuations? Look at the past few months FFS! It's rising drastically. I'm still positive about my $1 mil BTC price by the end of 2020. Alt coins like MTC and Apollo will rise ten times more.”

As of press time, Bitcoin has indeed lost a round 9% on the week — almost 4% on the day — according to Cointelegraph’s Bitcoin Price Index, and is trading just north of $10,300.

Yet on the month, the coin’s chart shows a 23% gain — and caps a 100% gain over the three-month period to press time.


This summer, a Wall Street Journal report had revealed that the dizzying returns from Grayscale Investments’ Bitcoin Trust — which is up almost 300% on the year — had secured its spot as the best-performing fund in the market.

In a recent interview with Cointelegraph, McAfee predicted that 10 years from now, “there'll be no fiat anywhere in the world [...] everything will be cryptocurrency.”

A passionate, anti-government crusader whose charisma has secured him a presumably welcome degree of notoriety, McAfee is currently in exile in Cuba., due to alleged U.S. income tax evasion charges — and is running his second campaign for the American presidency.

Fellow Bitcoin bull Anthony Pompliano — co-founder of Morgan Creek Digital Assets — recently predicted the coin would hit $100,000 by the end of 2021.

In contrast to McAfee’s bullish view of alts like Doc Token (MTC) and Apollo (APL), American broadcaster Max Keiser has predicted that the altcoin phenomenon is over and all value will flow into bitcoin in the latest crypto bull market

The Halving Event

Every four years after 840,000 blocks are mined, Litecoin goes through a fixed process called halving that reduces the rewards miners get for mining blocks by 50 percent. Consequently, the inflation rate of the cryptocurrency is also reduced.

After much investigations and research i have made about how to earn more profit on cryptocurrency legitimately, I will recommend forex #spam Investment Platform and cloud mining(forex #spam.io) as it has been relatively on for a while now as it was launched mid 2016 but has become the largest Cryptocurrency Investment Platform right now with a volume of over 150 million dollars where you get different ROI’s on your invested cryptocurrency after every 10 days. It supports variety of cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin and other Altcoins.

This event is set to happen until the total supply of 84,000,000 LTC are mined. It is unknown when the last few coins will be mined, but it will be around 2142 based on the current rewards schedule. By then, approximately 0.00000672 LTC will be mined each day until eventually, all the tokens are in circulation.


The 2015 Halving Event

Litecoin went live on Oct. 13, 2011, and since then it has only had one block reward reduction event. The first halving occurred on Aug. 26, 2015, at a block height of 840,000, which dropped the mining reward from 50 LTC per block to 25 LTC. The halving had a direct impact on the value of the cryptocurrency.

Following the low of $1.30 on April 26, 2015, LTC went through a consolidation phase that lasted almost a month, where it was trading between $1.35 and $1.50. On May 22, the market valuation of this cryptocurrency broke out and within a month and a half it reached $8.97, which represented a 590 percent upward move.

On July 9, 47 days prior the halving, LTC reached its peak and began a 73.2 percent correction. It went down from a high of $8.97 to trade at $2.40 just one day before the halving occurred. Litecoin basically spent the following months staggering between $2.87 and $3.24.


The 2019 Halving Event

On Aug. 6, 2019, at exactly block 1,680,000, Litecoin will go through a new halving event where the miningreward will be cut in half, from 25 LTC per block to only 12.5 LTC.

Just as it happened in the previous halving, the market valuation of LTC began surging after the low of Dec. 7, 2018, when it was trading at $22.54. Since then, this cryptocurrency has gone up 539 percent to reach a high of $144 on June 12, 2019.

Now, that the block rewards reduction is just 54 days away from today, Litecoin seems like it has or it will reach its peak. If history repeats itself, LTC could soon pullback to the 200-day moving average just as it did in 2015. If it does, a 56.94 correction will take place dragging its price down from the recent high of $144 all the way to $62.


Is it time to short Litecoin?

The current market structure is completely different compared to 2015. Financial institutions have joined the space and regulation has stepped in, which has helped the cryptocurrency industry mature. Nonetheless, the market is still mostly based upon sentiment and not fundamentals which allow many cryptocurrencies to surge without any deep-rooted reason.

After an approximately 540 percent rise, it is hard to say that Litecoin will continue going up without pulling back, but due to the nature of the market it is worth noting that it could. As the halving event approaches, many investors might take the date as a “take profit” event that could indeed provoke a correction in the market valuation of this cryptocurrency.

Whether LTC will go down 57 percent to test the 200-day moving average remains to be seen, but likely the strength of the support given by the 50 and 100-day moving average will tell how significant the retrace will be.

Cryptocurrency experts remain bullish on the future of major cryptocurrencies.

Major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple and Litecoin have been both good and bad investments. They have been good investments for those who purchased them early on before their big run up, and sold them near their all-time highs, back at the end of last year. But they have been bad investments for those who purchased them near the all-time highs, and either sold them in recent weeks as prices dropped, or continue to hold on to them with heavy losses.

After much investigations and research i have made about how to earn more profit on cryptocurrency legitimately, I will recommend forex #spam Investment Platform and cloud mining(forex #spam.io) as it has been relatively on for a while now as it was launched mid 2016 but has become the largest Cryptocurrency Investment Platform right now with a volume of over 150 million dollars where you get different ROI’s on your invested cryptocurrency after every 10 days. It supports variety of cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin and other Altcoins.

That’s the past. What about the future? Are major cryptocurrencies good or bad investments?

Some cryptocurrency experts say, "Good."

Nathan Worsley, CTO of LocalCoinSwap is one of them, though he sees cryptos more as technological innovations rather than get rich quick schemes. “When you invest in any cryptocurrency you should invest in the technology behind it,” says Worsley.“Crypto is not a get-rich-quick scheme, it's a technological revolution with the potential to disrupt the fundamental tenets of global financial systems.”

[Ed. note: Investing in cryptocoins or tokens is highly speculative and the market is largely unregulated. Anyone considering it should be prepared to lose their entire investment. Disclosure: I don't own any Bitcoin.]

Worsley likes Bitcoin. “Bitcoin is the most battle-hardened network in existence. Bitcoin has withstood the test of time and multiple attacks by well-resourced adversaries,” he says. “It is a cryptocurrency which can be relied upon, and with the Lightning Network in infancy stages great things are coming.”

Worsley is positive on Ethereum, too. “Ethereum is a general-purpose scripting Blockchain founded by one of the greatest minds of our generation. As the foundation for hundreds of other mainstream cryptocurrencies, Ethereum has the potential to one day rival Bitcoin itself.”

What about Ripple? “Ripple isn’t a truly decentralized but lightning fast, Ripple has the power to improve on legacy banking systems and help streamline international money transfers,” notes Worsley.

And Litecoin? “Litecoin, Bitcoin’s younger brother and one of the first true 'Altcoins,' doesn't offer exciting technological developments over the Bitcoin protocol but is likely to be a permanent fixture in the crypto ecosystem for many years to come.”

Oz Sultan, chief strategist at CG Blockchain, is another bullish expert, bullish on Bitcoin, but not on Ethereum. "Bitcoin's correction is due to a number of extraordinary market pressures,” says Sultan. “However, it is a definite hold for now. Ethereum has taken a large correction after major market moves across a number of high profile ICO's and is also facing deflationary pressures from Bitcoin."

David Sapper, COO at Blockbid, is also in the bullish camp. “Whereas the value of some lesser known alt-coins and tokens have the potential to fizzle out, it’s certainly possible that the big players will see another surge in value before too long,” says Sapper. “At which point, those who took the risk during the dip will be richly rewarded for their patience and bravery.”

But John Hagensen, founder and managing director of Keystone Wealth Partners, is very skeptical about investing in cryptocurrencies altogether. “It all depends on how you define 'investment,'” he says. “If an 'investment' is a speculative gamble that has the potential for sizable short-term gains or catastrophic losses, then yes. Sure, it’s an investment. On the contrary, if an 'investment' is rooted in discipline, strategy, academics and diversification, with the objective to maximize returns for a stated risk, then these are closer to a game of roulette than they are to an investment."

Most can remember an evening where they won big at the casino, but does that legitimize placing your 401(k) on the craps table and hoping they don’t roll a seven?

Apparently not. Investing in major cryptocurrencies is an extremely risky game for speculators rather than investors, who can afford to lose part or all of their invested funds.

Cryptocurrency Trading / Chances Of Litecoin Going Up
« on: January 02, 2020, 09:36:19 AM »
The cryptocurrency market has experienced various ups and downs over the last year. While everyone is talking about cryptocurrencies, there are still many questions to answer.

Are you confused if you should invest in Litecoin? Not sure whether the price will go up or down?

Well, here’s the good news: All your questions I will answer in this guide. I will cover the basics of Litecoin and share with you our favorite Litecoin price predictions. It is difficult to predict the exact future of Litecoin, but we can help you make a better choice.

Litecoin is the 7th largest cryptocurrency, with a market cap of over $12 billion. So, what exactly makes Litecoin so popular?

An ex-Google employee, Charlie Lee, created Litecoin in 2011. Just like Bitcoin, Litecoin is also a digital currency. It is built on the same blockchain as Bitcoin and can be used to make payments. The biggest advantage that Litecoin offers over Bitcoin is – speed. In fact, Litecoin is called “Lite” coin because it is almost four times faster than Bitcoin.

Imagine that you decide to buy your next coffee using Bitcoin — guess how long you will have to wait? Around 10 minutes! This is because 10 minutes is the minimum time it takes to confirm a Bitcoin transaction.

Now, imagine that you pay using Litecoin instead – and surprise! It only takes 2.5 minutes to confirm a Litecoin transaction. So, it’d only be 2.5 minutes until you have your favorite coffee in your hands.

Anyway, before we get into our Litecoin price prediction, lets first explain the differences between Bitcoin and Litecoin.

Litecoin vs Bitcoin

Litecoin is very similar to Bitcoin. Just like Bitcoin, it is built upon the same code. Think of it as the operating system update that you receive on your smartphone. Just like an update aims to improve some of the issues with your smartphone, Litecoin aims to fix some of the problems with Bitcoin.

As I explained in the coffee example, Litecoin’s technology can process transactions faster than Bitcoin.

Another key difference is the total number of coins that exist. Similar to how the world’s gold supply is limited, so is the supply of cryptocurrency coins. Only a maximum of 21 million Bitcoins can be created. The maximum number of Litecoins is 85 million.

To make a payment using cryptocurrency, you are required to pay a transaction fee. That fee is much higher when transactions are sent using Bitcoin rather than using Litecoin. This means that it is not only faster to make payments using Litecoin, but it is also much cheaper. This is one of the reasons that many Litecoin price predictions are more likely to be positive.

In the case of our regular currency, federal banks can print new notes to increase the supply of currency. This is not the case with cryptocurrency as there is no government that can “print” more coins.

Did you know that new coins need to be “mined” in order to be used? Again, just like gold!

All you need to know is that mining is the process in which people use computers to discover new Litecoin, Bitcoin and other coins. To mine Bitcoin (or other cryptocurrencies) you need a super specialized and powerful computer, unlike the normal computers you find in retail stores.

However, you could mine Litecoin with a normal computer, just by adding a few graphical processing units (GPU). So, if you decide you want to own Litecoin but don’t want to buy it on an exchange, you might want to think about mining it.

For this very reason, Litecoin is accessible to more people than Bitcoin. Which is why Litecoin is often referred to as the silver of cryptocurrency and Bitcoin is referred to as the gold.

The differences between the technology of the two coins have a major impact on their prices. Now that you know how Litecoin’s technology is different from Bitcoin’s technology, it will be easier for you to understand our Litecoin price prediction.

Litecoin Historical Price Trend

Litecoin has been one of the best performing cryptocurrencies in the last 12 months. If you bought Litecoin at the beginning of 2017 when its price was at $4.5, you would have made a gain of almost 8000% by the end of the year! That is almost 80X your investment.

So, if you had invested $500 in January 2017, you would have made a profit of almost $45,000 when the price of Litecoin reached the highest point in December 2017.

You can see the historical price trend of Litecoin in the chart below. There is no doubt that Litecoin has shown huge amounts of growth last year, making it one of the top ten cryptocurrencies by percentage growth.

Another important thing that you should know before we get into our Litecoin projection is that Litecoin has a high trading volume. This means that more and more people are selling and buying Litecoin in the cryptocurrency market. Litecoin is fourth in terms of trading volume, just after Ethereum.

Litecoin Price Predictions

There is no doubt that the cryptocurrency market moves very fast, making it very difficult for investors to decide how to choose the best investment options.

In this situation, it is best to do your research to help you understand what the current market trends are. In fact, you should always contact a financial expert before making any major investments.

Listed below are the top Litecoin predictions, which you can use as a starting point in your research to help you understand the market better.

Litecoin Prediction Using Technical Analysis

First, let us explain technical analysis so that you have a clear understanding of the basis of this prediction.

The technical analysis considers only the facts of the past and present price trends, and trading volume trends. It does not consider things such as how good the technology behind a cryptocurrency is etc.

Technical analysts run the data through mathematical functions to come up with price predictions. What is good for us is that we do not need to worry about the mathematical part as there are many analysts who perform the analysis and share it on the internet.

Another technical analysis website believes that if Litecoin crosses the $220 mark, it will be the starting point of a further price rise. Their Litecoin projections, for the short term, is set at $300.

Another kind of analysis, called the “monte carlo” analysis, has been performed on Litecoin. What it predicts is a price range of $6 to $507 for Litecoin up to November 2019.

Yes, I know what you’re thinking — That is such a huge price range to predict! Right?

Well, what we can take away from this analysis is that the price of Litecoin, like other cryptocurrencies, may change a lot this year. See, it is not completely useless!

Litecoin Price Prediction Based on the Price of Bitcoin

There are many predictions that say Litecoin’s growth will be higher than that of Bitcoin. Nobody really knows what will happen, but here are some good reasons as to why there are predictions like these.

Litecoin has shown better growth in the last year than Bitcoin
Litecoin improved the technology that Bitcoin uses (Remember, it is 4 times faster!)
At present, Litecoin is showing better recovery than Bitcoin
According to oraclrtime, the advantages of Litecoin over Bitcoin will interest many new investors. Their Litecoin forecasts for the end of 2019 is $1000, but there are predictions that it could even rise up to $2000!

There is another projection by investingpr that expects the price of Litecoin to reach up to $1000. They expect that more investors will start to invest in Litecoin as they look out for options other than Bitcoin, and to cut down their risk.

Just how Bitcoin is often compared to gold and Litecoin is often compared to silver…what do we do with gold in real life? Store it. Similarly, Bitcoin will be used for storing value, while Litecoin will be used for transacting.

Yes, it is true that Litecoin has advantages over Bitcoin. However, it is also true that Litecoin might be losing some of its advantages which relate to mining and costs.

So, as much as the Litecoin price prediction above might make you want to invest. You should first take a look at the other factors before making a decision.

Litecoin Forecast by Experts Such as John McAfee

You might be asking yourself, who is John McAfee? Even if you are just slightly serious about investing in cryptocurrencies, then it is time for you to recognize the name. John McAfee is a big-time crypto investor and a very active promoter of cryptocurrencies. His price projections can have a real impact on the prices of cryptocurrencies.

So, what are his views on the future of Litecoin?

John McAfee believes that Litecoin has not risen in value as much as it should have. He said that Litecoin can rise just as much, if not more, than Bitcoin. If we believe that John McAfee’s prediction for Bitcoin is correct, then who is to say that he is wrong about Litecoin.

George Tung, a cryptocurrency analyst, had his say on the Litecoin price prediction. He said that the price of Litecoin rise as high as $1500 in 2019. He is not alone as there are many experts and analysts that believe the price of Litecoin price will continue to rise in 2019.

How much can it rise to, though? Well, I guess only time will tell. But at least you now know what the experts are making of it.

One of the reasons why many believe that Litecoin will perform well this year is because of the return of Charlie Lee, the founder of Litecoin. He left Litecoin and decided to join Coinbase, but has very recently become an active member of the Litecoin team again.

Charlie Lee has said that 2019 will be a good year for Litecoin. However, he has refused to give his projected price of the cryptocurrency.

What the Litecoin Price Prediction Looks Like from a Wall Street Perspective

Cryptocurrencies have started to get attention from Wall Street traders and investors too. Just like us, they couldn’t stop themselves from taking an interest in cryptocurrencies.

Wall Street has lots of experience when it comes to making investments in stocks and other assets. Which means they should have a good idea of what is, and what isn’t a good investment.

Kelly, the head of BK Capital Management (LLC), is a Wall Street trader whose job is to keep a track of the cryptocurrency market. BK Capital Management is a company whose focus is to make investments in cryptocurrencies. Kelly gave a Litecoin forecast of $500 for 2019, so that might be a prediction worth listening to.

Kelly is positive about Litecoin because of the advantages it has over Bitcoin. He thinks that quicker transactions and low fees are what make Litecoin an attractive investment option for everyone.

Try thinking of Litecoin as iPhone X and Bitcoin as iPhone 8. The only difference is that iPhone X is cheaper in this case.

Litecoin Price Prediction 2020

If you are planning on investing in Litecoin for the long term, then it is a good idea to look at price predictions for 2020.

This projection is based on Litecoin’s 2017 performance —which was better than Bitcoin’s 2017 performance. However, it is not based on technical analysis or expert opinion. That is why you might want to focus more on other predictions.

Better technology than Bitcoin
The overall growth of the cryptocurrency market
Other Factors That Could Affect The Litecoin Future

There are a few other factors that could affect the future of Litecoin.

Technology

The changes made to the technology of Litecoin itself is an important thing to take note of. Litecoin recently went through an event called a “Hard Fork”. Let me explain it to you what is a hard fork.

Simply put, it splits the cryptocurrency into two. One part of the split is still the older version, Litecoin in this case. The other part of the split results in the birth of a new cryptocurrency, which in this case is Litecoin Cash. Litecoin Cash claims to offer certain advantages over Litecoin, but we will save that discussion for another time.

So, what happened when this split took place? Well, something good should have happened, but nothing did happen. In fact, Litecoin has performed very well since the hard fork while Litecoin Cash hasn’t.

coindesk has also had its say on Litecoin price prediction. They believe that if Litecoin stays above $240 for a short period of time, then it could reach the $300 mark very soon. According to them, Litecoin could benefit from the positive news of the founder, Charlie Lee, and the launch of its new features.

Regulations

Can you imagine playing a football game without any referee? It would not work well, right? Well, that is how the cryptocurrency market is working right now — there are no regulations in place!

This will all change soon, though. Regulators from all around the world have become very active when it comes to cryptocurrencies. No one knows what impact the regulations will have on Litecoin’s future or any other cryptocurrency.

What we do know is that these regulations could slow down the market in general. Which could have a similar effect on the Litecoin forecast. I recommend that you keep updated with new cryptocurrency regulations as it will help you keep your investments secure.

So, Is Litecoin Worth Investing In?

As you can understand, there is no simple answer to this question. It is very difficult to predict what the price of Litecoin could be in 24 hours — and even harder to predict the price of Litecoin in a year’s time.

But, what we can see from the Litecoin price predictions above is that Litecoin is moving in a positive direction. It has the technological strengths that could help it to become even more popular in the crypto world.

I think that technical analysis and expert advice is something you should always consider before investing. I also believe that regulations could have a big impact on the future of Litecoin. So, it’s important that you learn about these regulations, especially in your country.

Even the biggest investors and experts of cryptocurrency find it difficult to predict the future of cryptocurrency. So before investing, you should do as much research as possible and plan your investments so that even if the prices fall, you are still safe.

Most importantly, do not invest all your money into just one cryptocurrency. Even if you find one of the above Litecoin price predictions to be very attractive, never invest more than you can afford to lose.

Cryptocurrency Trading / Price Of Litecoin In 2020
« on: January 02, 2020, 09:32:31 AM »
Litecoin is one of the top cryptocurrencies created back in 2011 by Charlie Lee. The currency implemented important technologies that later were used in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. However, LTC suffered from the bearish trend, which damaged its price. What can we expect from LTC price in the future and what can boost it? Read in our Litecoin price prediction for 2019, 2020, 2025 and 2030

After much investigations and research i have made about how to earn more profit on cryptocurrency legitimately, I will recommend forex #spam Investment Platform and cloud mining(forex #spam.io) as it has been relatively on for a while now as it was launched mid 2016 but has become the largest Cryptocurrency Investment Platform right now with a volume of over 150 million dollars where you get different ROI’s on your invested cryptocurrency after every 10 days. It supports variety of cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin and other Altcoins.

What is Litecoin

First of all, Litecoin is a peer-to-peer network with the same-name cryptocurrency. Using this cryptocurrency, you can make fast payments around the world. Already from the name, it is clear that Litecoin is a “lite version” of BTC. Litecoin is a fork of Bitcoin based on the same code. The creator Charlie Lee notes that LTC is not created to compete with the digital gold but to solve its problems and make crypto faster, lighter, better.

The value of Litecoin blockchain

So what’s the difference between BTC and LTC? What makes Litecoin valuable for the cryptocurrency and blockchain industry? Subsequently, some changes were made to Litecoin regarding the mining algorithm, transaction speed and number of coins, as follows:

Improved capacity. In order to solve the problem of network scaling, Litecoin uses the SegWit software algorithm. They were the very first who implemented this technology. This problem in the Bitcoin network is that due to the limited block size (only 1 megabyte), operations with cryptocurrency is very slow. So, the Litecoin network has a much higher capacity than its predecessor Bitcoin.
Fast block generation. The speed of generating new blocks has also been increased. If in Bitcoin 1 block is generated in 10 minutes, then in Litecoin - in just 2.5 minutes. That is, there is a difference of as much as four times.
Smaller transaction queue. The speed of transaction confirmation has also increased markedly. There are cases when users of the Bitcoin network had to wait for confirmation of the operation for several hours or even days.
The developers immediately determined the cryptocurrency mining limit - 84 million coins. It is logical that when the growth in the number of coins stops and a deficit forms, their value will begin to grow naturally - of course, provided that they will still be in demand by that time.
Different hashing algorithms. While Bitcoin is working on SHA-256, Litecoin uses scrypt in its PoW algorithm. Unfortunately, it requires more memory and makes mining more complicated.
Litecoin price history


The coin was launched on October 11 and its price was very low – about $3 for quite a long time. Only in November 2013, we can see the first significant price movements. LTC jumped three times higher and hit USD 40 within a few days. These days, Bitcoin grew to $1000 and then fell to its previous positions so Litecoin totally followed its price movements. However, in May 2014 Litecoin dropped to $10 and then in October to $3 per coin. After the correction, the crypto was traded between $1 and $4 for three years, until 2017.

In March 2017 Litcoin announced the launch date of their SegWit protocol which affected the rate and coin achieved $16. In May LTC launched the protocol which pushed the price to $30. Also, the dev team implemented Lighting Network which attracted more attention to the coin. Later LTC will achieve $70 in September and then went back to $40. However, the whole market was bullish and Bitcoin set new price records. So in December 2017, Litecoin reached $100 per coin and at the mid of December even $350.

Now we are in the bearish stage, the whole market is red so for the most part of 2018, the LTC price chart has been demonstrating a descending trend. Only in February and April the coin tried to break this tendency but couldn’t resist the market movement for long. At the end of 2018, it finally stabilized and started gaining momentum.

In 2019 Litcoin continued its price growth and in June reached $130 per coin when Bitcoin was over $12000. Also, the upcoming Litecoin halving played its role and helped the rate to jump higher. Then it was followed by the correction, so today Litcoin cost about $62.

What can determine the LTC future price

You have probably already noticed that Litecoin price follows the Bitcoin price. If we take a look at the price charts of both digital currencies we will find out that they are almost identical.
The only explanation can be that LTC is a fork of Bitcoin. Their code is very similar – that makes both coins move in the same directions.

The second factor that affects the price of digital silver is new technologies. Litecoin was at the forefront of modern and relevant technologies. It was the first to implement SegWit protocol and Atomic swaps also, it has implemented the Lighting Network. All these technologies can revolutionise sphere of the cryptocurrency payments.

Another important price factor is that Litecoin is designed as a payment tool. The coin is widely used by various businesses and merchants around the globe. You can pay with LTC for clothing and furniture, art and collectables, health and beauty services, etc. The full list of merchants can be found on their official website. New stores and services that will accept Litecoin may also positively affect the price of the cryptocurrency.

Should I Buy Litecoin: What Is Litecoin?

Litecoin, also known by its currency code LTC, was created by Charlie Lee in 2011. Lee wanted to change the Bitcoin blockchain to make it “lighter”, meaning that it can process transactions quicker and cheaper. To do this, he forked the Bitcoin blockchain.

Are you wondering what a fork is?

Well, a fork is when a new blockchain takes the original code from a previous blockchain but makes changes to the technology to improve what it can and can’t do. That is exactly what Litecoin did. It used the original Bitcoin blockchain but made it quicker and cheaper to use!

Forks happen all the time in the cryptocurrency world. Other coins such as Bitcoin Classic, Bitcoin Unlimited and Bitcoin Cash are all forks of the original Bitcoin blockchain. Ethereum was also a fork of Ethereum Classic! Here are some improvements that Litecoin made from the Bitcoin blockchain.

After much investigations and research i have made about how to earn more profit on cryptocurrency legitimately, I will recommend forex #spam Investment Platform and cloud mining(forex #spam.io) as it has been relatively on for a while now as it was launched mid 2016 but has become the largest Cryptocurrency Investment Platform right now with a volume of over 150 million dollars where you get different ROI’s on your invested cryptocurrency after every 10 days. It supports variety of cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin and other Altcoins.

Mining

Mining Bitcoin has now become very difficult for people who do not own expensive hardware. When people mine Bitcoin, they use their computing power to help verify transactions on the network and receive extra Bitcoin as a reward.

Although you never actually see what is happening, this extra power solves really difficult mathematical problems. These problems are so difficult that no human could solve it, that’s why we use supercomputers! This is what makes blockchain technology so secure and decentralized.

However, as more and more people use Bitcoin, the network becomes larger. There are more computers trying to mine Bitcoin, which means more competition. So, the hardware needed to be a successful miner becomes more and more expensive and requires more electricity.

Litecoin solved this problem by changing how the blockchain verifies transactions. Instead of using expensive ASICS (application-specific integrated circuit), it uses GPUs (graphics processing units). GPUs are much cheaper and use less energy, meaning that anyone can mine Litecoin!

If you’re not quite sure what that jargon means — basically, ASICS and GPUs are different types of computer hardware.

Transaction Speeds and Fees

The time it takes for a Bitcoin transaction to be confirmed is around 10 minutes. In the real world, this is quite slow. As Litecoin is a lighter version of Bitcoin, it is able to average transaction speed of around 2 ½ minutes!

By allowing people to use GPUs to mine, this speeds up the network for everyone. Quicker transaction fees aren’t the only benefit over Bitcoin that Litecoin has. The average cost to send a Litecoin transaction is $0.23, whilst the average Bitcoin transaction costs $2.83.

So, as you can see, there’s quite a difference, right?

No Threats of a Flood Attack

In 2015, the Bitcoin client experienced a flood attack, where hundreds of thousands of spam transactions were sent to the network! The purpose of a flood attack is like a virus — bad people try to damage a system.

Imagine if somebody sent you 200,000 emails at the same time. The network would not be able to process so many transactions (emails) and it would cause the server to break!

Charlie Lee noticed the threats of flood attacks when he was building Litecoin in 2011 and set out to make sure this would not happen to his blockchain! Litecoin aims to resolve the scalability issues that Bitcoin has — which means to allow more transactions to happen at a single time on the network.

So, now you know some background information about Litecoin, let’s have a look at whether Litecoin is a good or bad short-term investment.

Should I Buy Litecoin as a Short Term Investment?

When people invest money in cryptocurrency, they should decide whether they want to hold their coins for the short term or the long term. When we describe an investment as a short term, we generally mean between 1-12 months. However, more experienced traders might see a short-term investment of days, hours or even minutes!

This could be because investors are expecting an event to happen that will increase the value of the coin, but then they expect the price to decrease after. For example, if you made a short-term investment in Unikoin Gold (UKG) between November 2017 and February 2018, you would have made over 600% profit! That is an example of a good short-term investment.

However, if you held on to it for much longer, the value would have gone down to its original price! So, now that you know what a short-term investment is, let’s have a look at some advantages and disadvantages of short-term investing in Litecoin.

Advantages

High trading volume: Litecoin has been trading since 2011 and is an established top 10 coin. Meaning that it is a popular choice for investors. If a cryptocurrency has a high trading volume, it means you will have no problems finding buyers to sell to. If there are low trading volumes, it means you could find it difficult to find a buyer!
Listed on Coinbase: Coinbase process more cryptocurrency transactions than any other exchange, even though they only have four coins listed! One of these is Litecoin, meaning that you can easily buy and sell your coins. Even better, you can deposit and withdraw in real-world money! This is a huge advantage Litecoin has over other coins.
Disadvantages

Volatility: Volatility is a big problem in the cryptocurrency markets. Volatility means that the price of a coin goes up or down very quickly. This can make a short-term investment in Litecoin high risk. For example, if you had bought Litecoin in late December 2017, its price went down by more than 50% one month later!
Should I Buy Litecoin as a Long-Term Investment?

When people invest in a cryptocurrency long term, they expect their value to increase slowly. This generally means that they do not expect a lot of market volatility and that the coin is low risk. For less experienced traders who can’t handle large price movements, long-term investing is more suitable! A long-term investment is normally for 1 year or more.

A good example of a long-term investment is Bitcoin. If you had purchased 1 Bitcoin in 2011 it would have cost you about 30 cents. If you were brave enough to hold on to it until 2018, that 1 Bitcoin would be worth over $10,000!

Now that you know what a long-term investment is, let’s have a look at some of the long-term advantages and disadvantages of Litecoin!

Advantages

Full-time leadership: Charlie Lee, the creator of Litecoin, now works on the project full time. Lee also has a team of highly experienced blockchain experts that are helping the company to grow.
Established: Litecoin is one of the most established cryptocurrencies, with more than 7 years of trading. In fact, it was the first ever alt-coin! This makes Litecoin investing less of a risk compared to some of the newer coins.
Small Investments: If you are looking to make a long-term Litecoin investment, you can invest small amounts on a regular basis. This will allow you to protect yourself from any short-term price movements.
Disadvantages

Blockchain scalability: Scalability issues are something that most blockchain projects aim to solve. Solving scalability issues means that the blockchain will not slow down as more people use it. Currently, Litecoin can process about 56 transactions per second. Which is good compared to Bitcoin’s 7 transactions per second. However, it must be made quickly for it to be useful in the future.
Should I Buy Litecoin: How do I Invest In Litecoin?

One of the main advantages of investing in Litecoin is that you can easily buy it using fiat-money such as USD, EUR, and GBP! This makes it easier because you can use your debit or credit card, and even bank transfer (even PayPal is accepted on Coinbase!).

This is different from a lot of other cryptocurrencies. Usually, you have to exchange Bitcoin or Ether to get other cryptocurrencies, you can’t just purchase them from a broker like you can Litecoin!

Cryptocurrency Trading / FUTURE PROJECTION OF LITECOIN
« on: January 02, 2020, 09:27:51 AM »
Litecoin Historical Price Trend

Litecoin has been one of the best performing cryptocurrencies in the last 12 months. If you bought Litecoin at the beginning of 2017 when its price was at $4.5, you would have made a gain of almost 8000% by the end of the year! That is almost 80X your investment.

So, if you had invested $500 in January 2017, you would have made a profit of almost $45,000 when the price of Litecoin reached the highest point in December 2017.

You can see the historical price trend of Litecoin in the chart below. There is no doubt that Litecoin has shown huge amounts of growth last year, making it one of the top ten cryptocurrencies by percentage growth.

Another important thing that you should know before we get into our Litecoin projection is that Litecoin has a high trading volume. This means that more and more people are selling and buying Litecoin in the cryptocurrency market. Litecoin is fourth in terms of trading volume, just after Ethereum.

After much investigations and research i have made about how to earn more profit on cryptocurrency legitimately, I will recommend forex #spam Investment Platform and cloud mining(forex #spam.io) as it has been relatively on for a while now as it was launched mid 2016 but has become the largest Cryptocurrency Investment Platform right now with a volume of over 150 million dollars where you get different ROI’s on your invested cryptocurrency after every 10 days. It supports variety of cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin and other Altcoins.

Litecoin Price Predictions

There is no doubt that the cryptocurrency market moves very fast, making it very difficult for investors to decide how to choose the best investment options.

In this situation, it is best to do your research to help you understand what the current market trends are. In fact, you should always contact a financial expert before making any major investments.

Listed below are the top Litecoin predictions, which you can use as a starting point in your research to help you understand the market better.

Litecoin Prediction Using Technical Analysis

First, let us explain technical analysis so that you have a clear understanding of the basis of this prediction.

The technical analysis considers only the facts of the past and present price trends, and trading volume trends. It does not consider things such as how good the technology behind a cryptocurrency is etc.

Technical analysts run the data through mathematical functions to come up with price predictions. What is good for us is that we do not need to worry about the mathematical part as there are many analysts who perform the analysis and share it on the internet.

Walletinvestor, a website that performs technical analysis, has made a 1-year Litecoin price prediction of around $0,000001. They predict that Litecoin could be a tragic investment option in the long run.

Another technical analysis website believes that if Litecoin crosses the $220 mark, it will be the starting point of a further price rise. Their Litecoin projections, for the short term, is set at $300.

Another kind of analysis, called the “Monte Carlo” analysis, has been performed on Litecoin. What it predicts is a price range of $6 to $507 for Litecoin up to November 2019.

Yes, I know what you’re thinking — That is such a huge price range to predict! Right?

Well, what we can take away from this analysis is that the price of Litecoin, like other cryptocurrencies, may change a lot this year. See, it is not completely useless!

Litecoin Price Prediction Based on the Price of Bitcoin

There are many predictions that say Litecoin’s growth will be higher than that of Bitcoin. Nobody really knows what will happen, but here are some good reasons as to why there are predictions like these.

Litecoin has shown better growth in the last year than Bitcoin
Litecoin improved the technology that Bitcoin uses (Remember, it is 4 times faster!)
At present, Litecoin is showing better recovery than Bitcoin
According to oracletime, the advantages of Litecoin over Bitcoin will interest many new investors. Their Litecoin forecasts for the end of 2019 is $1000, but there are predictions that it could even rise up to $2000!

There is another projection by investingpr that expects the price of Litecoin to reach up to $1000. They expect that more investors will start to invest in Litecoin as they look out for options other than Bitcoin, and to cut down their risk.

Just how Bitcoin is often compared to gold and Litecoin is often compared to silver…what do we do with gold in real life? Store it. Similarly, Bitcoin will be used for storing value, while Litecoin will be used for transacting.

Yes, it is true that Litecoin has advantages over Bitcoin. However, it is also true that Litecoin might be losing some of its advantages which relate to mining and costs.

So, as much as the Litecoin price prediction above might make you want to invest. You should first take a look at the other factors before making a decision.

Litecoin Forecast by Experts Such as John McAfee

You might be asking yourself, who is John McAfee? Even if you are just slightly serious about investing in cryptocurrencies, then it is time for you to recognize the name. John McAfee is a big-time crypto investor and a very active promoter of cryptocurrencies. His price projections can have a real impact on the prices of cryptocurrencies.

So, what are his views on the future of Litecoin?

John McAfee believes that Litecoin has not risen in value as much as it should have. He said that Litecoin can rise just as much, if not more, than Bitcoin. If we believe that John McAfee’s prediction for Bitcoin is correct, then who is to say that he is wrong about Litecoin.

George Tung, a cryptocurrency analyst, had his say on the Litecoin price prediction. He said that the price of Litecoin rise as high as $1500 in 2019. He is not alone as there are many experts and analysts that believe the price of Litecoin price will continue to rise in 2019.

How much can it rise to, though? Well, I guess only time will tell. But at least you now know what the experts are making of it.

One of the reasons why many believe that Litecoin will perform well this year is because of the return of Charlie Lee, the founder of Litecoin. He left Litecoin and decided to join Coinbase, but has very recently become an active member of the Litecoin team again.

Charlie Lee has said that 2019 will be a good year for Litecoin. However, he has refused to give his projected price of the cryptocurrency.

What the Litecoin Price Prediction Looks Like from a Wall Street Perspective

Cryptocurrencies have started to get attention from Wall Street traders and investors too. Just like us, they couldn’t stop themselves from taking an interest in cryptocurrencies.

Wall Street has lots of experience when it comes to making investments in stocks and other assets. Which means they should have a good idea of what is, and what isn’t a good investment.

Kelly, the head of BK Capital Management (LLC), is a Wall Street trader whose job is to keep a track of the cryptocurrency market. BK Capital Management is a company whose focus is to make investments in cryptocurrencies. Kelly gave a Litecoin forecast of $500 for 2019, so that might be a prediction worth listening to.

Kelly is positive about Litecoin because of the advantages it has over Bitcoin. He thinks that quicker transactions and low fees are what make Litecoin an attractive investment option for everyone.

Try thinking of Litecoin as iPhone X and Bitcoin as iPhone 8. The only difference is that iPhone X is cheaper in this case.

Litecoin Price Prediction 2020

If you are planning on investing in Litecoin for the long term, then it is a good idea to look at price predictions for 2020.

Introduction - Long Forecast is a website that specializes in giving long-term financial forecasts using technical analysis. Longforecast.com’s Litecoin projections 2020 is in the range of $780 to $1374.

Oracletimes is another website that expects the Litecoin price to be $1000 by 2020.

This projection is based on Litecoin’s 2017 performance —which was better than Bitcoin’s 2017 performance. However, it is not based on technical analysis or expert opinion. That is why you might want to focus more on other predictions.

Another Litecoin forecast for 2020 has been done by steemit. They have set their Litecoin price prediction 2020 at $3500 for the following reasons:

Excellent growth of Litecoin in 2017
Better technology than Bitcoin
The overall growth of the cryptocurrency market
Other Factors That Could Affect The Litecoin Future

There are a few other factors that could affect the future of Litecoin.

Technology

The changes made to the technology of Litecoin itself is an important thing to take note of. Litecoin recently went through an event called a “Hard Fork”. Let me explain it to you what is a hard fork.

Simply put, it splits the cryptocurrency into two. One part of the split is still the older version, Litecoin in this case. The other part of the split results in the birth of a new cryptocurrency, which in this case is Litecoin Cash. Litecoin Cash claims to offer certain advantages over Litecoin, but we will save that discussion for another time.

So, what happened when this split took place? Well, something good should have happened, but nothing did happen. In fact, Litecoin has performed very well since the hard fork while Litecoin Cash hasn’t.

Coindesk has also had its say on Litecoin price prediction. They believe that if Litecoin stays above $240 for a short period of time, then it could reach the $300 mark very soon. According to them, Litecoin could benefit from the positive news of the founder, Charlie Lee, and the launch of its new features.
