<p>The next Litecoin Halving Event is scheduled for Wednesday, August 2nd. On this occasion, the block reward of 12.5 LTC will be reduced by half to 6.25 LTC. A major disruption in the price of Litecoin and the cryptocurrency market in general is expected after this event. However, with only two months left until the Litecoin halving, things seem to be accelerating. Let’s explain!</p><div class="thumbnail post-cover-image"><img src="https://www.cointribune.com/app/uploads/2023/06/halving-litecoin-1024x683.png" srcset="https://www.cointribune.com/app/uploads/2023/06/halving-litecoin-1024x683.png 1024w, https://www.cointribune.com/app/uploads/2023/06/halving-litecoin-300x200.png 300w, https://www.cointribune.com/app/uploads/2023/06/halving-litecoin-768x512.png 768w, https://www.cointribune.com/app/uploads/2023/06/halving-litecoin.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" class="post-cover-image--img" alt='Smiling sunflower and Litecoin logo with "Halving" mention'></div><div class="my-4"></div>

<p>While fiat currencies can suffer from inflation, affecting households in the United States, Turkey, Argentina, Zimbabwe, crypto have a solution to their devaluation: halving. You can find detailed explanations in <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/halving-bitcoin-et-litecoin-les-perspectives-2023/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">this article</a> by our colleague on the prospects of LTC and BTC halving for this year, 2023.</p><div class="my-4"><div class="ads ">

<p>In a recent publication, <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/litecoin/litecoin-ltc-remains-red-despite-surge-in-network-ahead-of-halving/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NewsBTC</a> assessed the state of Litecoin. They mentioned:</p>



<ul>
<li>The increase in network activity (indicating rising investor interest).</li>



<li>The expansion of the user base.</li>



<li>The multiplication of active Litecoin addresses.</li>



<li>Etc.</li>
</ul>



<p>“<em>Litecoin had a strong month. Total addresses with a balance has increased more intensely since the end of April and we now observe nearly 8.5 million LTC addresses with a balance!</em>”</p>



<p>“<em>With an impressive 7.09 million addresses holding a balance, @litecoin is on the verge of reaching a new ATH in addresses with a balance. As a highly-used payment crypto, $LTC address count easily exceeds that of other notable assets such as Cardano, Dogecoin, and Polygon. #LTC</em>”</p>



<p>According to IntoTheBlock data, as the LTC halving approaches, Litecoin’s popularity continues to grow.</p>



<h2 id="towards-a-rush-of-important-players">Towards a rush of important players? </h2>



<p>Whales have never stopped circling <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/defaite-imminente-de-la-sec-face-a-ripple-les-baleines-nagent-dans-la-joie/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">around Ripple’s XRP</a> in anticipation of Judge Torres’ verdict. The Litecoin halving could also have the same effect in the near future.</p>



<p>“<em>If this trend of increased on-chain volume continues, it will absolutely be a strong sign that some big players are beginning to jump in on their LTC investments in anticipation of the halving,</em>” says Santiment.</p>



<p>Despite this momentum, the price of LTC has not shown a significant increase. Last Tuesday, it was trading at $90. Yesterday, it lost 2.2% of its value, dropping below the $92 mark again today.</p>



<p>It is worth noting that there are predictions of a price increase for Litecoin. <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/la-prediction-litecoin-de-charlie-lee/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Charlie Lee</a>, its founder, and the analytics platform <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/predictions-haussieres-pour-litecoin-et-4-autres-altcoins/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Santiment</a> are very optimistic about its future.</p><div class="my-4"><div class="ads ">
