Litecoin, the Bitcoin alternative developed by Charlie Lee, is up 52% this week; after hovering around the $75 mark seven days ago, the coin’s price has increased to $114.36 today.
The biggest gains for Litecoin, the fifth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, came on Thursday, when the price jumped over 20%. Today, Litecoin rose a further 6.99%. Its market capitalization is $7.5 billion.
Litecoin observed a surge of renewed interest back in September thanks to Litebringer, a blockchain-based fantasy RPG game that allows players to trade in-game loot for Litecoin; daily transactions on the Litecoin blockchain shot up to around 165,000, though they’ve been slowly declining ever since.
Daily transactions jumped slightly on Thursday, however, from 58,000 to 71,000.
The wider crypto market continues to do well. Bitcoin increased by 26% this week, Ethereum rose by 17%, XRP by 14%, and Bitcoin Cash by 20%.
The entire market capitalization for all cryptocurrencies has risen by 3.38% over the past 24 hours.
Litecoin is still a long way off from its all-time high of $375.29, but all this green can’t hurt its prospects.

Ethereum (-10%), XRP (-12%), and Dogecoin (-1%) have fallen. Solana and Bitcoin have buoyed the broader crypto sector, with the glo...
Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) just notched their strongest single-day performance in nearly three months, with institutional money pouring back into the space after weeks of muted flows. On Monday, Bitcoin ETFs collectively recorded $381.3 million in net inflows, their largest daily total since January 30, as per data from UK-based investment management firm Farside Investors. The inflows mark a notable shift after weeks of lukewarm demand, driven by macro uncertainty and tightening liqui...
Coinbase’s Layer 2 network Base’s creator, Jesse Pollak, has defended the platform’s focus on creators, following backlash over an experimental content token drop. “If you are a creator or developer and you want to be the #1 priority, we would love to have you on Base,” Pollak tweeted Monday. Pollak was responding to Pump.fun co-founder Alon Cohen’s criticism, who tweeted Monday, “traders are easily the most important user group in crypto,” not creators or developers. “I love traders, but our...
