Prevailing market sentiment
Litecoin’s current price movement has left analysts eyeing a major breakout. Analyst Crypto Whales similarly bet big on the altcoin, noting that,
“Litecoin has broken out of a falling wedge pattern on the intraday chart. This breakout signals the end of the previous downtrend. Expect a potential 40% bullish move following this breakout.”
According to his analysis, the altcoin will hit a $94.7 resistance level last witnessed on the 12th of April. However, other analysts such as Crypto Surf are using a historical cycle to make a future case for LTC.
Crypto Surf stated,
“Based on past cycles, LTC should start its bull run 15 to 19 months after its halving and 6 to 8 months after $BTC halving. So between Oct 2024 and Mar 2025.”
