Litecoin
edged higher, climbing 2.1% in the last 24 hours and breaking through the $90 resistance level. The move came as global markets grappled with rising geopolitical friction and a shifting macroeconomic outlook.
LTC briefly pierced the psychologically significant $90 threshold during early trading hours. While prices retreated slightly, the overall trend remains bullish, buoyed by a pattern of higher lows.

The broader context added to the rally’s momentum. President Trump’s latest round of tariffs rattled the wider market, adding fresh uncertainty to the near future.
At the same time, inflation in the eurozone dropped below the European Central Bank’s target, leading to growing bets on a new rate cut in the near future. That could spark renewed appetite for risk assets.
- From a technical perspective, Litecoin has shown solid footing, according to CoinDesk Research’s technical analysis data model.
- A strong support zone formed around $87.90, with volume spikes during key trading windows. Traders noted a double top pattern near $89.60 and a selloff that briefly pushed prices to $89.20 before buyers regained control.
- The session closed with price consolidation near $89.32, a sign the market is still digesting recent moves.
- If support levels hold, Litecoin could see renewed attempts to challenge and maintain levels above $90 in the coming days.
