Litecoin Soars Above $70, Targets $85 and Beyond
Litecoin has broken above $70, marking an important structural shift in its price action. The cryptocurrency spent most of 2026 consolidating below $60, but since mid-August, it has accelerated its recovery.
The latest move above $70 is accompanied by a sharp increase in trading volume and a market capitalisation climb to $5.5 billion, pushing Litecoin back into the top 20 cryptos.
The weekly Supertrend has flipped bullish for the first time since March 2025, while the weekly RSI has climbed to 65.4, approaching the upper threshold of 70.
However, LTC still faces a critical test at the $85 to $87 resistance zone before the broader reversal confirms. If it clears this hurdle, it may attract sustained buying and potentially reach higher targets above $100.
The path to $100 highly depends on whether the recent surge can sustain itself rather than fading after the initial breakout. The move has been accompanied by a sharp increase in trading volume, while LTC's market cap has climbed above $5.5 billion.
