Litecoin (LTC) Price Prediction 2025-2026: Will the Bitcoin Beta Maintain Uptrend?

Litecoin’s [LTC] price noted a strong uptrend over the last two days, surging over +20% to finally top the $132-mark on Monday. This upbeat price movement came amid renewed speculation regarding an Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) approval in the United States.

According to Bloomberg ETF analysts James Seyffart and Eric Balchunas, the odds of a LTC ETF being approved by 2025 were as high as 90%. Their analysis further highlighted that among the altcoin ETFs, LTC had the highest approval odds. However, the final SEC deadline is October 2025.

So, will LTC continue to front-run the approval odds or will the uptrend lose steam in the short term? Let’s analyze LTC’s price action on the daily and weekly timeframes.

LTC price retests range-highs, where to next?

LTC’s daily price chart on Binance showed the coin bullish but still trading within the $95-$140 price range that has been observed since last November.

Le tableau des prix quotidien du LTC sur Binance a montré la pièce haussière mais se négociant toujours dans la fourchette de prix de 95 $ à 140 $ qui a été observée depuis novembre dernier.

However, the daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) was yet to hit the overbought zone, suggesting that the ‘Bitcoin beta’ still had some room for growth before tiring out of the recent uptrend.

Cependant, l'indice quotidien de la force relative (RSI) n'avait pas encore réussi à frapper la zone de surachat, suggérant que la «bitcoin bêta» avait encore de la place à la croissance avant de se fatiguer de la récente tendance à la hausse.

That being said, unless Bitcoin surges beyond $100K, LTC’s range-high at $135 (red zone) could become another sell-zone. Sell-off pressure could come from swing traders who jumped on the buying opportunity during last week’s de-leveraging event. They would be up 30% in profit.

La pression de vente pourrait provenir de Swing Traders qui ont sauté sur l'opportunité d'achat lors de l'événement de délévation de la semaine dernière. Ils auraient une hausse de 30% en bénéfice.

However, when zoomed out on the higher timeframe (weekly chart), the next key level for LTC would be $180. The $100-$180 range was a key range in 2021 before LTC extended its winning streak to +$280.

Cependant, lorsque vous avez zoom sur le délai supérieur (graphique hebdomadaire), le niveau de clé suivant pour le SLD serait de 180 $. La fourchette de 100 $ à 180 $ était une fourchette clé en 2021 avant que le LTC n'étende sa séquence de victoires à + 280 $.

LTC’s H4 chart showed that over 73% of LTC holders were in profit at press time. This was a massive short-term pitfall that late FOMO speculators should keep in mind.

According to IntoTheBlock, LTC hit local tops last December and March when profitability hit 84% and 72%, respectively. This meant LTC’s sustained rally could be capped if holders began booking profit in large numbers.
