I think Investors are losing hope from litecoin because there is not enough development abut that project for a few years. But if they really want to add something new in litecoin blockchain then it's possible that it will impact positively in the markets. But I fear that Litecoin will lose it's top 10 positing in Coinmarketcap ranking even price of litecoin increases.
litecoin need trigger to attract investors buying litcoin in huge amount.if there is no new fundamental from their team i am sure litecoin price will steady for long time. traders and investors only trades for short term so price will move in limited range only, when they take profits will liquidate it immediately.
