- Litecoin (LTC) shows bullish signals as Bollinger Band Width hits record lows, with Tony Severino highlighting a "Hammer" candle above the band for a positive bias. - Technical indicators suggest a potential 30% rally to $137 if LTC breaks $105, supported by $4.08M in exchange outflows and skewed derivatives activity favoring long positions. - Analysts project ambitious targets ($300–$2,000) citing consolidation and MWEB upgrades, though warnings of short-term $30 pullbacks and mixed price action ($94, -
Litecoin (LTC) has recently caught the eye of market observers as its 2M Bollinger Band Width has shrunk to unprecedented lows, indicating extremely limited price movement and the possibility of an upcoming bullish shift.

The altcoin's underlying fundamentals also contribute to its bullish case. The addition of MimbleWimble Extension Blocks (MWEB) has improved Litecoin's privacy features, making it more attractive for payments. These technical upgrades, along with a more mature ecosystem and positive regulatory developments from its ETF listing, position LTC to benefit from increased institutional interest.
