![What Is Asset Tokenization? Types, Why It Matters Now [2025]](https://coininsights.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/asset_tokenization-360x180.png)
- LTC was down marginally in the last 24 hours.
- Indicators and market sentiment around the coin turned bearish.
Litecoin [LTC] investors enjoyed profits last week as the coin showed signs of resurgence. Was this because of Litecoin’s achievements, or was it just an outcome of Bitcoin [BTC] gaining upward momentum? Let’s have a closer look at what’s going on with Litecoin.
What is up with Litecoin?
CoinMarketCap’s data revealed that Litecoin’s price surged by more than 3% in the last seven days. At the time of writing, LTC was trading at $70.58 with a market capitalization of over $5.2 billion.
Though this at first glance might look bullish, the episode might have just been a consequence of Bitcoin’s price gains. As BTC is the market leader, altcoins often tend to follow the price action of BTC. In fact, Santiment also posted a tweet highlighting this possibility.
⚡️📈 #Litecoin has had a mild emergence, rebounding back above $70 for the first time since January 22nd. For now, trading volume is rather dormant for the #19 ranked market cap asset. But monitor $LTC, as isolated pumps are often predecessors for $BTC. https://t.co/xViUwnLeOt pic.twitter.com/BO8u1moQNN

It appears that Litecoin’s bullish streak has ended at press time. As per CoinMarketCap, LTC was already down by 0.5% in the last 24 hours. To better understand what to expect from LTC, AMBCrypto checked its metrics.
Going forward
We found that LTC faced a strong resistance level near the $71 mark, which it had failed to breach over the last week. Going southward, the coin has a support level near the $70.52 mark.
If the coin’s value falls under that, it might trigger a further downtrend in the days to come.

Since there was a possibility of a continued southward price movement, AMBCrypto checked Litecoin’s daily chart. Our analysis revealed that LTC’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) registered a downtick in the recent past.
Additionally, its Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) also followed a similar declining route. These two indicators suggested that investors might witness a further downtrend, which might result in LTC plummeting below its support level.
Nonetheless, the MACD remained bullish as it displayed a bullish upper hand in the market.

Like most of the market indicators, sentiment around the coin also remained bearish. Our analysis of Santiment’s chart pointed out that after a spike on the 8th of February 2024, LTCs weighted sentiment went into the negative zone in the following days.
