I have only just come across Litecoin after reading it’s next halving is in early August.
Everyone says how well the markets move when Bitcoin halving occurs so is it not an ideal time to invest in Litecoin with its halving so close?
I am thinking of throwing in a bit of money in the hope it at least does a 2x in the next month or so.
Anyone else into Litecoin and will it rise during the halving next month?
There's no way to be certain because Litecoin doesn't have the same level of traction that Bitcoin has. If it were in the early days of litecoin back when it was still one of the favorite altcoins on people's list, then maybe it would've made a big deal. However, with the level of traction it has now. Not so much. But as other altcoins, the fundamental impact of this might cause a surge in the price since a lot of people would be inclined to buy hoping for the price to increase prior to the halving.
My play would be to to monitor rhe price on futures and manage to get some positions in with moderate leverage. Then scale up from there.
Litecoin used to be in the top five coins in Coinmarketcap; although it has lost interest the past few years, LTC has gained decent ground throughout 2023 and has been performing quite well the past few months. Despite the current upsetting market situation, it has doubled in price in less than 12 months. Certainly, the halving won't affect its price as much compared to Bitcoin, but I'm quite positive that Litecoin is preparing for a great comeback in the cryptocurrency scene. Only in the past seven days has it been met with an increase in price of over 15%; that's a great number, if you ask me.
I'm not expecting miracles to happen after the halving, but I wouldn't be surprised if we see an even larger recovery that will at least increase its value to half of what the ATH was (approximately $400).
