Impact on the price of Litecoin

Overall, the massive boost in the number of Litecoin addresses is a very positive sign for the network and indicates the potential for electrifying price growth. However, the positive momentum may end as quickly as it started, especially given the diminutive deal sizes.

On the other hand, the increased activity may extend and translate into increased dynamics in the novel week. This, in turn, could drive up prices and cause Litecoin to outperform many altcoins. The first resistance level to overcome is just above $80. Breaking above the $80 level would mean there could be a free move to $85, which would suggest that the bulls are back in control. However, Litecoin’s rise to $200 remains bleak at the moment as a move of this scale seems unlikely given the recent sluggish price action.

Recently, the Litecoin network reached another vital milestone successfully completing 250 million transactions.
