Data shows that Litecoin long-term holders exited the asset before the halving, while short-term holders were left to panic on the halving day. The “halving<\/a>” here refers to an event where the block rewards of Litecoin are permanently cut in half.<\/p>\n

Litecoin Long-Term Holders Sold During Price Surge Before The Halving<\/h2>\n

According to data from the market intelligence platform IntoTheBlock<\/a>, the long-term holders had been well-prepared for the “sell the news” halving event. The “long-term holders<\/a>” (LTHs) generally include all investors who have been holding onto their coins since at least six months ago.<\/p>\n

This group includes some of the most resolute investors in the Litecoin market, who don’t easily react to whatever is going in on in the wider sector, as they usually hold through FUD or profit-taking opportunities without participating in any significant selling.<\/p>\n

Because of how rare movements from these investors can be, the few times that they do sell can be the ones to watch out for, as they may spell trouble for the market.<\/p>\n

A way to gauge whether the LTHs are participating in selling or not is through the “holding time of transacted coins” metric, which tells us about the average amount of time that coins being transferred on the blockchain had been dormant prior to this movement.<\/p>\n

When the value of this metric is high, it means that the age of coins being sold on the network is high, which can naturally be a sign that the LTHs are active right now. On the other hand, low values usually indicate that the short-term holders<\/a> (STHs) are the ones selling currently.<\/p>\n

Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Litecoin holding time of transacted coins over the past few months:<\/p>\n

As you can see in the above graph, the Litecoin holding time of transacted coins spiked back in June, when the price of the cryptocurrency had been observing a sharp rally.<\/p>\n

During the largest of these spikes, the indicator’s value had exceeded 1 year, implying that some of the most experienced investors in the market had broken their silence.<\/p>\n

This rally had occurred as the market had started getting hyped about the halving, which was only a month and a half away at that point.<\/p>\n

This event takes place every four years, with the latest one having occurred just earlier this month. Unlike what some may have hoped for, the event didn’t prove to be bullish for LTC, as the aforementioned rally didn’t last for too long and the cryptocurrency only declined in the remaining leadup to the halving, until finally it actually sharply plunged on the day of the event itself.<\/p>\n

It would appear that the experienced LTHs had already predicted something like this may happen, so they had taken the wise decision of selling while the opportunity was there.<\/p>\n

In the post-halving selloff, the indicator’s value has remained low, implying that it’s only the short-term holders who have been panic selling after they saw that a bullish trend couldn’t return to Litecoin with the event.<\/p>\n

LTC Price<\/h2>\n

At the time of writing, Litecoin is trading around $84, down 8% in the last week.<\/p>\n

Keshav has been writing for many years, first as a hobbyist and later as a freelancer. He has experience working in a variety of niches, even fiction at one point, but the cryptocurrency industry has been the longest he has been attached to. In terms of official educational qualifications, Keshav holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in Physics from one of the premier institutes of India, the University of Delhi (DU). He started the degree with an aim of eventually making a career in Physics, but the onset of COVID led to a shift in plans. The virus meant that the college classes had to be delivered in the online-mode and with it came free time for him to explore other passions. Initially only seeking to make some beer money, Keshav unexpectedly landed clients offering real projects, after which there was no looking back. Writing was something he had always enjoyed and to be able to do it for a living was like a dream come true. Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022 and has been focusing on his writing career since, but that doesn\u2019t mean his passion for Physics has ended. He eventually plans to re-enter university to obtain a masters degree in the same field, but perhaps only to satiate his own interest rather than for using it as a means to find employment.. Keshav has found blockchain and its concepts fascinating ever since he started going down the rabbit-hole back in 2020. On-chain analysis in particular has been something he likes to research more about, which is why his NewsBTC pieces tend to involve it in some form. Being of the science background, Keshav likes if concepts are clear and consistent, so he generally explains the indicators he talks about in a bit of detail so that the readers can perhaps come out having understood and learnt something new. As for hobbies, Keshav is super into football, anime, and videogames. He enjoys football not only as a watcher, but also as a player. For games, Keshav generally tends towards enjoying singleplayer adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he is active in. Though, perhaps due to being ultra-focused on the game, he is today a semi-pro on the EA FC scene, regularly participating in tournaments and sometimes even taking back prize money. Because of his enthusiasm for anime and games, he also self-learned Japanese along the way to consume some of the untranslated gems out there. The skill didn\u2019t merely remain as just a hobby, either, as he put it to productive use during his exploration for small-time gigs at the start of COVID, fulfilling a couple of Japanese-to-English translation jobs. Keshav is also big into fitness, with agility and acceleration-related workouts making a big part of his program due to the relevance they have in football. On top of that, he also has a more traditional strength based program for the gym, which he does to maintain an overall fitness level of his body.\",\"sameAs\":[\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/keshavverma29\/\",\"https:\/\/x.com\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/keshavvarma29\"],\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/author\/hououinkyouma29\/\"}]}<\/script>\n","yoast_head_json":{"title":"Litecoin

Keshav has been writing for many years, first as a hobbyist and later as a freelancer. He has experience working in a variety of niches, even fiction at one point, but the cryptocurrency industry has been the longest he has been attached to. In terms of official educational qualifications, Keshav holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in Physics from one of the premier institutes of India, the University of Delhi (DU). He started the degree with an aim of eventually making a career in Physics, but the onset of COVID led to a shift in plans. The virus meant that the college classes had to be delivered in the online-mode and with it came free time for him to explore other passions. Initially only seeking to make some beer money, Keshav unexpectedly landed clients offering real projects, after which there was no looking back. Writing was something he had always enjoyed and to be able to do it for a living was like a dream come true. Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022 and has been focusing on his writing career since, but that doesn\u2019t mean his passion for Physics has ended. He eventually plans to re-enter university to obtain a masters degree in the same field, but perhaps only to satiate his own interest rather than for using it as a means to find employment.. Keshav has found blockchain and its concepts fascinating ever since he started going down the rabbit-hole back in 2020. On-chain analysis in particular has been something he likes to research more about, which is why his NewsBTC pieces tend to involve it in some form. Being of the science background, Keshav likes if concepts are clear and consistent, so he generally explains the indicators he talks about in a bit of detail so that the readers can perhaps come out having understood and learnt something new. As for hobbies, Keshav is super into football, anime, and videogames. He enjoys football not only as a watcher, but also as a player. For games, Keshav generally tends towards enjoying singleplayer adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he is active in. Though, perhaps due to being ultra-focused on the game, he is today a semi-pro on the EA FC scene, regularly participating in tournaments and sometimes even taking back prize money. Because of his enthusiasm for anime and games, he also self-learned Japanese along the way to consume some of the untranslated gems out there. The skill didn\u2019t merely remain as just a hobby, either, as he put it to productive use during his exploration for small-time gigs at the start of COVID, fulfilling a couple of Japanese-to-English translation jobs. Keshav is also big into fitness, with agility and acceleration-related workouts making a big part of his program due to the relevance they have in football. On top of that, he also has a more traditional strength based program for the gym, which he does to maintain an overall fitness level of his body.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/keshavverma29\/","https:\/\/x.com\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/keshavvarma29"],"url":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/author\/hououinkyouma29\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Litecoin Long-Term Holders Smartly Exited Before Halving, Data Shows","url":"http:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/news\/litecoin\/litecoin-long-term-holders-smartly-exited-before-halving-data-shows\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/news\/litecoin\/litecoin-long-term-holders-smartly-exited-before-halving-data-shows\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/kanchanara-lmmwsQ0GpqY-unsplash.jpg?resize=200%2C200","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/kanchanara-lmmwsQ0GpqY-unsplash.jpg?fit=5000%2C3333"},"articleSection":"Litecoin","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Keshav Verma"}],"creator":["Keshav Verma"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"NewsBTC","logo":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32"},"keywords":["litecoin","litecoin halving","litecoin long-term holders","litecoin selloff","ltc","ltc\/usd"],"dateCreated":"2023-08-08T20:00:58Z","datePublished":"2023-08-08T20:00:58Z","dateModified":"2023-08-08T20:00:58Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Litecoin Long-Term Holders Smartly Exited Before Halving, Data Shows\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/www.shenyangcang.com\\\/news\\\/litecoin\\\/litecoin-long-term-holders-smartly-exited-before-halving-data-shows\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/www.shenyangcang.com\\\/news\\\/litecoin\\\/litecoin-long-term-holders-smartly-exited-before-halving-data-shows\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.shenyangcang.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/08\\\/kanchanara-lmmwsQ0GpqY-unsplash.jpg?resize=200%2C200\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.shenyangcang.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/08\\\/kanchanara-lmmwsQ0GpqY-unsplash.jpg?fit=5000%2C3333\"},\"articleSection\":\"Litecoin\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Keshav Verma\"}],\"creator\":[\"Keshav Verma\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"NewsBTC\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.shenyangcang.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/06\\\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32\"},\"keywords\":[\"litecoin\",\"litecoin halving\",\"litecoin long-term holders\",\"litecoin selloff\",\"ltc\",\"ltc\\\/usd\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2023-08-08T20:00:58Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2023-08-08T20:00:58Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2023-08-08T20:00:58Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/shenyangcang.com\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/kanchanara-lmmwsQ0GpqY-unsplash.jpg?fit=5000%2C3333","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/546230"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/542"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=546230"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/546230\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/546259"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=546230"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=546230"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shenyangcang.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=546230"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
