Litecoin (LTC) is one of the cryptocurrencies that has maintained a bullish stand since the beginning of this year. The token is currently trading at $94.94, indicating a more than 10% increase in the last 24 hours.
This is one of the most significant percentage gains which the token has had in a single day since March 12, although there have been some fluctuations in the price. The upcoming halving event is believed to be responsible for this upward trend in Litecoin price.
The price gain has played a pivotal role in bolstering the confidence of investors in the coin. Many are beginning to see the possibility of LTC making them millionaires, hence, they have turned their desires into demand. In the last few hours, the volume of LTC traded in the market was $483M, or 1.52% of the total volume of all cryptocurrencies
A tweet from the Litecoin protocol confirmed that the network processed another million transactions last week.

Consequently, the coin’s market capitalization has equally soared, reaching almost $7 billion, and commanding an approximate dominance of 0.55% of the total crypto market cap
While there has been significant growth in the last few days, it is worth noting that the LTC price is still very far from its all-time high of $420 set on December 12, 2017. The token is at least 78% away from this price value. However, as the halving event draws closer, it is believed that the token will receive much more attention.
The Litecoin halving event is scheduled to take place later in August this year at a block height of 2,520,000. Usually, such halving events have often led to substantial price increases in the corresponding cryptocurrency.
LTC Hash Rate Sees Sharp Increase
Last week, the total new addresses on the Litecoin blockchain surged by 55%, and at the same time, the daily active addresses surged by 28%. During that time, the surge brought the total number of addresses beyond 200 million, exceeding Ethereum’s (ETH) count of about 180 million. Renowned crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe recently predicted that LTC would reach between $220 and $260 amongst many other crypto price surges
The hash rate of the Litecoin network has seen a sharp increase with more miners joining the network. An increase in hash rate is due to a proportional rise in mining difficulty which means that it becomes harder for miners to find and add a block to the blockchain. Usually, mining difficulty rises when more miners are brought online. A few days ago, CNF reported that Litecoin’s mining difficulty is hitting a value of 26.38M at block 2,498,134
Generally, experts opine that the rising mining difficulty indicates a secure and healthy network since it suggests that more people are mining. Ultimately, it controls the rate at which a particular coin is being issued and manages the supply of the coin.
