Litecoin price predictions for 2024, 2025 and 2030
On average, our panellists think LTC’s price will hit $86 before 2024 is out.
They also expect the price of LTC to rise to $147 by 2025 and $424 by 2030.
Ben Ritchie, managing director at Alpha Node Global, says litecoin (LTC) will end 2024 worth $80 based on it being a “lite” version of BTC.
“Litecoin remains a lighter version of bitcoin, offering lower costs and faster transactions. However, its purpose could be challenged by the rise of Layer-2 solutions. Demand drivers include its similar halving cycle and the potential for institutional adoption as a bitcoin alternative.”
Daniel Keller, the CEO of InFlux Technologies, gives one of the strongest projections for 2024 at $125 based on its solid history in the crypto space.
“Litecoin (LTC) is a strong decentralised project with a long history of reliability, fast transactions, and low fees. As one of the earliest cryptocurrencies, it continues to serve as a trusted asset in the crypto space. Its growth will depend on broader adoption and integration into payment systems.”
John Hawkins, a senior lecturer at the University of Canberra, sees LTC falling to just $40 as “Litecoin has dropped out of the top twenty [cryptocurrencies] on CoinMarketCap. It already gets little media attention and will probably get less.”
Is now the time to buy, sell, or hold LTC?
Half the panel (50%) say it’s time to sell your LTC. However, just shy of a third (31%) see LTC as a value and say now is the time to buy, with the remaining 19% seeing LTC as a hold.
