Litecoin has exceeded its previous all time high of $48.48 today by reaching $49.00 before quickly retreating. The big news is that Bitstamp will be integrating with Litecoin. This is a huge vote of confidence for Litecoin as Bitstamp is a major exchange, but only trades Bitcoin and Ripple. They will be adopting Litecoin before Ethereum (with plans for Ethereum soon).
