I disagree on your assessment of Litecoin utility in terms of it being a gamble.

Litecoin's value proposition:
High liquidity & on every exchange
number 2 supported on ATMs
350m @PayPal users
$104m @Grayscale LTCN trust
99% Scrypt hashrate dominance
MWEB fungibility/privacy
Low fees & fast txns
$500b+ value transferred
9+ years w/ zero downtime

There also appears to be a cycle to Litecoin as outlined here:  https://mastercryptosignals.substack.com/p/master-crypto-signals-issue-6

While the future isnt always the same is does often rhyme.
