The blockchain analytics firm, Santiment, tweeted today that Litecoin (LTC) whale transactions have “exploded with activity.” The tweet went on to say that this increase in activity has indicated a resurgence of transactions that are valued at $1 million or more.
According to Santiment, the previous two occurrences of whale activity spikes resulted in LTC’s price jumping 37% and 33% at their peaks. The most recent spike in LTC’s whale activity is the highest spike since 28 December of last year.
In related news, the price of LTC has risen 1.66% over the last 24 hours. This 24-hour increase in LTC’s price has boosted LTC’s weekly performance to +6.99%. As a result, LTC is changing hands at $89.54 at press time.
The daily chart for LTC/USDT shows that the price of the altcoin is receiving support from the 9-day EMA line. Yesterday, LTC’s price did temporarily drop below the 9-day EMA level, reaching a daily low of $85.53 before recovering to close yesterday’s 24-hour cycle at $89.38.
Technical indicators for LTC are skewed slightly bullish as the 9-day EMA line is still positioned above the 20-day EMA line. In addition to this, the daily RSI line is sloped positively and is looking to cross above the daily RSI SMA line.
