Over the last 24 hours, the network has handled hundreds of thousands of transactions, totaling 52,376,152 LTC. Despite the massive transaction volume worth billions of dollars, transaction costs remain astonishingly cheap, at less than one cent per transaction.
Following these developments, LTC’s price has risen by 1.45% over the last 24 hours, hovering around $68.20 with a $268.28 million trading volume.

Furthermore, last month, <a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/litecoin-hits-12m-transactions-analyst-predicts-2025-peak/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Litecoin reached more than 12 million transactions</a>, beating the lifetime totals of numerous other blockchains. Although Litecoin’s name may not be very popular in the cryptocurrency market, it stands out in the blockchain arena.
Furthermore, the Litecoin project plans to hold the <a href="https://www.litecoin.net/summit" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Litecoin Summit 2024</a> in Nashville, Tennessee, on July 24–25. This summit is anticipated to bring together enthusiasts, developers, and investors to discuss and celebrate Litecoin’s development and future potential. The event promises to be a watershed moment for the Litecoin community and the broader blockchain ecosystem.
On the other hand, CNF <a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/is-litecoin-ltc-headed-for-a-slump-miners-sell-off-hitting-lowest-reserves-since-2011/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">reported</a> a few days ago that Litecoin miners reserves had decreased to their lowest point in previous years, reaching 1.61 million LTC ($120 million), or a 29% decrease. This reduction is linked to the <a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/litecoin-halving-a-success-ltc-prices-flatline-but-key-fundamentals-still-strong-with-network-stronger-than-ever/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">2023 halving event</a>, which has had an impact on miners earnings and reserves.
The decrease in supply is an important component of the network’s economics, influencing both the mining community and the general market dynamics.
Looking ahead, the next Litecoin halving is expected in 2027, when mining payouts will be reduced from 6.25 LTC to 3.125 LTC per block. This imminent halving is expected to have a big impact on the network’s supply and mining activity, making it a key event to monitor in the cryptocurrency landscape.
