Litecoin Leaps to Second Best-Performing Cryptocurrency After Being Declared a Commodity

Litecoin (LTC) has become the second best-performing cryptocurrency in the top 100, with a price spike of nearly 11% in the last 24 hours. This surge comes after the United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) declared Litecoin a commodity, placing it outside the scope of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This declaration opens the door for more endorsements and integrations for Litecoin.
