Historical price analysis of Litecoin
2013
Litecoin is one of the first altcoins and can be traded on international crypto exchanges since 2013. The coin was marketed in time for the first big bull run.
In May 2013, you could buy one LTC for only € 2.60. The exchange rate fluctuated between € 1.50 and € 2 almost all year long. October was the lowest point, with a price of only € 1.13.
From that moment on, things changed very, very quickly. In November LTC reached its first true peak of nearly € 37. It would be another four years before that price was equalled.
2014
All year long, litecoin's exchange rate declined. In mid December, litecoin hit the lowest point of the year, at € 2.23.
2017
Fastforward to 2017. In that year, Litecoin establishes itself as a kind of testing network for bitcoin.
First, SegWit was implemented successfully, and then the Lightning Network. Both technical solutions ensure the transaction network of litecoin becomes faster and more scalable.
Pair this up with the positive mood of 2017 and what you get is a year full of price records. In Augustus, Litcoin broke the psychological barrier of € 50.
But the fun didn't stop there. In December, litecoin peaked at over € 300.
2018
The year after that was one that traders would like to (but will not soon) forget. The exchange rate plummeted to € 23 in December.
2019
This year looked a lot like a particularly tough stage of the Tour de France. It started off with a steep climb towards € 124. Then the price started to plummet towards the end of the year. With a price of € 38 in December, Litecoin was just about right where it started off.
2020
In 2020, Litecoin started off well, reaching nearly € 80 in February. But the Coronavirus Pandemic spoiled things, and halfway into March, the exchange rate was suddenly € 23, the lowest price since 2018.
For a few months, the price darted around € 40, peaking at € 50 in August.
From the end of September, litecoin recovered. By the end of the year it pushed through the magical barrier of € 100.

Invest wisely
Litecoin is a promising coin, but be mindful that the crypto market is very volatile. That's why you should never invest more than you're prepared to lose. We also recommend you do your own research as well. On our news site, you can read the latest news on Litecoin. Good luck!
