If you looked at the Litecoin price and thought: 'Wow, hasn't it died yet?' — you're not alone. LTC is firmly holding at $80, as if it's not the harsh bear market of 2025, but a cozy retirement in warm Florida.
So, what’s happening?
Litecoin, known in niche circles as 'digital silver', is suddenly back in the spotlight. Just think: a coin older than most TikTokers is being discussed again as a candidate for an ETF. ETF. As if we’ve returned to 2021, only now with much fewer illusions.
LTC: pensioner on a skateboard
The price of LTC has fallen from a yearly high of $140 to the current $80. This is not just a correction. It feels like a midlife crisis when you wake up and realize: all the trendy L1 protocols have already moved ahead, and you're still working as a cashier at 'Digital Currencies 2013'.
But wait — there's hope! Because... speculation around ETFs is back in fashion! Someone, somewhere, supposedly might be thinking about launching a Litecoin ETF.
Technical analysis
• Support at $80: holding on like a grandpa on ice — seemingly stable, but scary.
• RSI around 40: technically — oversold. Practically — the market has just forgotten about LTC.
• Volumes have increased by 25% — either serious traders or one whale accidentally hit 'buy' instead of 'sell'.
Why an ETF might happen (or might not)
Litecoin is like that reliable old Volvo: doesn't break down, doesn't shine, but gets you around.
• No problems with the SEC
• Fixed supply
• Operating since 2011
• Sounds boring against the backdrop of Solana and dog-astronaut memecoins.
So yes — an ETF is possible if regulators one day open CoinMarketCap and think: 'What is this coin that never causes scandals?'
Conclusion: buy or just reminisce?
If you are the person who has been holding LTC in your wallet since 2017 — congratulations, you live forever in blockchain old school.
If you're young, bold, and want 'x's — run towards AI altcoins, where there's much more hype and risk.
But if you love stability, nostalgia, and a bit of ETF romance, Litecoin might show again that old age is not a sentence. It's... an investment style!
Litecoin: it could be boring, but it might become an ETF star.
