Also, watch Litecoin (LTC)
As mentioned before, Litecoin joined today’s upside party. The token recorded impressive price surges and remained on investors’ radar. That comes as coin gears up for the Litecoin halving event in the upcoming eight weeks. Halvings have historically triggered substantial market activity.
The process involves lessening mining rewards by 50%, reducing the rate of generating new LTCs. This scarcity theoretically might drive token prices higher.
Nonetheless, caution remains paramount when interacting with crypto assets. Beware of wild price fluctuations before betting on your favorite coin. Moreover, the market has showcased ups and downs lately.
