Litecoin (LTC) is a digital asset that new cryptocurrency investors and traders might consider adding to their portfolios. LTC is similar to Bitcoin in that its prima...ry use is as a currency / payment processing network.

In fact Litecoin was one of the first Bitcoin forks. In the world of cryptos a hard fork occurs when a change in protocol results in the splitting off of a cryptocurrency into two separate entities.

As Coin Central's Alex Moskov put it, many look at Litecoin as the silver to Bitcoin's gold. LTC has a larger circulating supply and a lower price when compared to BTC:

Supply: BTC – 18.6M LTC – 66.5M
Price: BTC - $49,000 LTC - $179

Litecoin is both open source and peer-to-peer. When something is open source that means the developers make the software source code available to be viewed, modified, distributed and/or upgraded by anyone. Peer-to-peer (P2P) is a characteristic component of decentralization where transactions are managed through a distributed network of computers rather than through a centralized authority.

LTC is as much as four times faster than BTC and the network is capable of handling higher transaction volume due to more frequent block generation. The cost of transactions is also very low – according to their website near-zero cost payments to anyone in the world. The low transaction costs and the fact that it is available on all of the major exchanges make LTC a good choice for initiating deposits and trades.

Litecoin is currently the 8th largest cryptocurrency globally in terms of market cap ($11.9B) and is currently trading up over 38 percent since the beginning of 2021.

Two upcoming events could also bode well for Litecoin's market outlook. First, an upcoming code release in March will announce enhanced privacy features for LTC. Second, Spark (FLR) recently announced an airdrop for Litecoin holders.

As always readers are encouraged to do their own research and to come to their own conclusions but we think there is a good place for Litecoin is most cryptocurrency portfolios.

When Satoshi mined the first bitcoins, they were worth $0.00

Satoshi mined at a loss to breathe life into the system. And never sold any afaik.

Bitcoin is the fairest monetary system ever, fro...m its genesis block to today.

Happy birthday #Bitcoin!

Bitcoin correction continues as the price is now below 30K. There are 2 main reasons why I think bitcoin will correct further and go down 24K-26K area.
1. Descending Triangle on the daily Timeframe (1d TF) ...
2. The price is below EMA 20 on the Daily Timeframe

This is a clear sign that we may see further correction for Bitcoin. Unless it reclaims 33K area, I think Bitcoin chart looks bearish for now.

Good buying opportunities will be around 24K-26K if the correction goes further.Show more >

The dollar has experienced a shocking slide in 2020. However, its price volatility in 2021 is still a big question.
Over the past few days, the dollar has recovered, making the gold and Bitcoin markets - th...e assets considered "digital gold" - simultaneously decline. The question is whether investors should hold onto the dollar in 2021, after a shocking slide in 2020.
In fact, the US currency often appreciates in response to economic fluctuations. That is the familiar scenario since the 2008-2009 financial crisis. "When there's turmoil, people find security. What can you look for other than the currency of the top economy?Show more >

I guess it's not the worst thing that can happen. Give it some time, when Co...ronavirus thing is behind us, people will have more time to focus on finance. Much like the economy, I think Crypto will see a huge boom after things with Coronavirus settleShow more >

Tesla founder Elon Musk is no stranger to posting silly things on Twitter. He’s used the platform to mock public safety precautions connected with the pandemic, and to inadvertently(?) depress the value of his ...own company’s stock.

He’s also tweeted from time to time about the niche cryptocurrency Dogecoin, which is based on the popular “doge” meme. His posts have significantly influenced the price of the coin.

Last month, he wrote, “One word: Doge.”

One word: Doge

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) December 20, 2020

Now, someone has offered to pay $7,777 for a tokenized replica of the tweet through a service called Valuables.

Valuables allows users to put up money for a tweet, which the tweeter can then accept if they so choose. The buyer then gets to “own” the tweet as an NFT, or non-fungible token.

Where fungible crypto assets like Bitcoin are all the same, in that each Bitcoin is worth just as much as every other Bitcoin, NFTs are one-of-one artifacts on the blockchain; they’re often used as hosting mechanisms for digital art and other collectibles.

Valuables describes these tokenized tweets as akin to “an autograph on a baseball card.”

The offer on this particular tweet comes from the NFT collector Tim Kang, who uses the alias @illestrater_.

“I offered $7,777 to Elon hoping he would take note and experience a simple example of what a smart contract can do,” Kang told Decrypt. “At least publicly, [Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey] and [Elon Musk] are not conveying that they understand the deeper implications of crypto... So it's my hope for our leaders to dive deeper into blockchain and be able to communicate what's in store for our future.”

Still no word from Elon—now the richest man in the world—on whether he’ll take the handout.Show more >
