Litecoin Breaks Key Resistance, Gains 6% in a Day as Trading Volume Surges

By · · 2 min read

Litecoin (LTC) emerged as a standout in the cryptocurrency market on February 10, 2025, trading at $118.38 after a significant rally. Over the past 24 hours, LTC surged by 6.39%, reaching an intraday high of $120 before a slight pullback.

This performance capped a week of steady gains, with Litecoin climbing over 21% from its February 3 low of $94.15. The rally comes amid growing optimism surrounding a potential spot Litecoin exchange-traded fund (ETF).

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recently acknowledged a filing for the ETF, sparking speculation about its approval. Analysts predict such an ETF could attract substantial institutional inflows, potentially exceeding $500 million, mirroring the success of Bitcoin ETFs.

This development has bolstered investor confidence, particularly among large holders. On-chain data shows that whale activity—wallets holding between 10,000 and 100,000 LTC—has surged, with these investors increasing their holdings by 103% in the past week.

This accumulation reflects growing confidence in Litecoin’s long-term potential. Meanwhile, daily trading volume jumped to $950 million, nearly doubling compared to previous levels.
