Analysts bullish on Litecoin as LTC price continues to climb
Litecoin price has skyrocketed, moving past $273.43 as capital from Bitcoin has rotated into the altcoin. Proponents have stated that the explosive growth in Litecoin is triggered by the rumors of Walmart accepting LTC payments.
Despite the rumors being debunked; Litecoin price has continued its rise.
Litecoin has offered the third-highest risk-adjusted returns over the past 24 hours. Based on data from crypto intelligence platform IntoTheBlock, 88% of the wallet addresses holding Litecoin are currently profitable.
The LTC network has witnessed a spike in on-chain activity, and perpetual swaps volume has crossed $7.54 billion. A perpetual swap is a derivative where users buy or sell the value of the underlying asset. Perpetual swaps volume is considered a key indicator of demand for the asset by market participants.
