litecoin is one of those altcoins that is old and could survive all these years (nearly as old as bitcoin) and still have a high price and lots of development.
this is all screaming high potential for this coin without a doubt.
so it is no surprise that it is rising like this and doesn't come down like all the other shitcoin pumps that keep happening every day.
Totally agree here. Litecoin is like a sleeping giant. Although it also made some nice gains this year and now jumped again withing the last two days, I still think that there is a lot of upside potential for it. I would not wonder to see Litecoin above $500 soon. Maybe four figured in 2018. Another good aspect of Litecoin is that it is not dumping or correcting hard from my experience, its like a safe harbour to park profits.
