Yeah after long time i see Litecoin is showing big pumping and i am surprised to see that now it's top 9 position in the coinmarketcap data.
But do not think that Litecoin is able to outperform Bitcoin it is never possible, Bitcoin marketcap is 593 billion dollar vs Litecoin 8 billion dollar marketcap, you can see that a big difference both of coin.
It won't and it can't. We do all know that Litecoin is just a little brother to bitcoin and they are mold on the same code.
And maybe it also benefited from the recent rise in prices, as it soars to more than 14%, and perhaps there is a renewed interest from investors specially as they know how solid Litecoin is and so they continue to fill their bags and hoping for a big run in the next bull run.
So I'm not surprised though, I don't have Litecoin but I still see it as one solid coin that if newbies are going to invest, they should include this one.
