The market capitalization of litecoin rose from $1 billion in November 2013 to $4.6 billion in November 2017 when a coin's price hit $85. In less than a month, its price has now surged to $300, giving a mammoth return of over 250%. What makes a litecoin appealing is that the price of a litecoin is still affordable for many such investors, at least as of now. Another thing that distinguishes litecoin from a bitcoin is that the litcoin takes relatively less processing speed (2.5 minutes) unlike bitcoin that takes around 10 minutes for one block.
