Litecoin remained the most-preferred cryptocurrency for payments in March, outperforming all major assets, including Bitcoin.

That being said, the digital silver has consistently ranked at the top of the charts, and March marked its third straight month of domination in 2024.While LTC was gaining significance as a mode of payment, a different user cohort was trying to extract value by HODLing them for longer periods.

According to on-chain analytics firm IntoTheBlock, the number of long-term holders of Litecoin surged above 5 million. The LTH here were users who have been in possession of the coin for a minimum period of 1 year. Interestingly, the LTH cohort constituted more than 62% of all Litecoin addresses with a balance, suggesting a strong HODLing trend in the ecosystem.Well, one of the factors behind the long periods of HODLing could be low returns from the coin since initial acquisition.
