Part 2/8:
Litecoin, created by former Google engineer Charlie Lee in 2011 as a playful offshoot of Bitcoin, has held its ground as a significant player in the crypto landscape. During the bull market of 2017, Litecoin saw an astonishing 313X growth from its trough to its peak. Even in the subsequent bull run leading into 2021, it achieved a respectable 16X increase. However, it's important to recognize that Litecoin's performance was somewhat suppressed during the last cycle.
