Litecoin is a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency created by Charlie Lee. It was created based on the Bitcoin protocol but differs in terms of the hashing algorithm used. Litecoin uses the memory intensive Scrypt proof of work mining algorithm. Scrypt allows consumer-grade hardware such as GPU to mine those coins.  Why Litecoin? Litecoin is a cryptocurrency that has evolved from Bitcoin after its own popularity in the industry, this alternative, or ‘altcoin’ has emerged to allow investors to diversify their digital currency package, according to Investopedia. Litecoin is one of the most prominent altcoins and was created by former Google employee and Director of Engineering at Coinbase, Charlie Lee. Litecoin was the first to alter Bitcoin and the most significant difference is that it takes 2.5 minutes for Litecoin to generate a block, or transaction, in comparison to Bitcoin's 10 minutes.  ‘While this matters little to traders, miners who use hardware to run Bitcoin's network cannot switch over to Litecoin. This keeps bigger mining conglomerates away from Litecoin because they cannot easily optimize their profits by swapping to another coin, contributing to a more decentralized experience. Litecoin also has bigger blocks, and more coins in circulation, making it more affordable and swift when transacting,’ Investopedia explained.  As explained above, Litecoin can transact a lot faster than Bitcoin, but there are also a number of other characteristics that investors need to know before trading. Litecoin can handle higher volumes of transactions because of the capability of transacting faster and if Bitcoin attempted to transact on the scale of its altcoin, a code update would be needed. However, Litecoin’s blocks would be larger, but with more ‘orphaned blocks'. The faster block time of litecoin reduces the risk of double spending attacks - this is theoretical in the case of both networks having the same hashing power.  Litecoin Technical Details: The transaction confirmation time taken for Litecoin is about 2.5 minutes on average (as compared to Bitcoin's 10 minutes). The Litecoin network is scheduled to cap at 84 million currency units.   Litecoin has inspired many other popular alternative currencies (eg. Dogecoin) because of its Scrypt hashing algorithm in order to prevent ASIC miners from mining those coins. However it is said that by the end of this year, Scrypt ASIC will enter the mass market.

Litecoin

Litecoin is surging, fueled by speculation around a potential ETF and positive technical indicators, leading to renewed interest in the crypto asset. The community is actively discussing price targets and potential breakouts, while also debating whether this rally will be sustained. Some traders are pointing to Litecoin's historical performance relative to Bitcoin, suggesting it is undervalued.

Multiple brokerages lowered their price target on Chinese EV maker Nio Inc. (NIO) after the company reported disappointing first-quarter earnings on Tuesday.The firm reported total revenue of RMB12.03 billion ($1.67 billion), representing an increase of 21.5% year-over-year (YoY), but below an analyst estimate of RMB12.46 billion, as per Finchat data.Adjusted and diluted net loss per share was RMB3.01, compared with a loss of RMB2.39 in the first quarter of 2024, and higher than the expected loss of RMB2.38.Subsequently, Mizuho lowered the firm's price target on Nio to $3.50 from $4 while keeping a ‘Neutral’ rating on the shares.

It sees Nio as fairly valued.For the second quarter, Nio expects to deliver between 72,000 and 75,000 vehicles, representing a year-on-year growth of 25.5% to 30.7%.Barclays, meanwhile, lowered its price target on Nio to $3 from $4 while keeping an ‘Underweight’ rating on the shares.The company's Q1 revenue came in below estimates and missed guidance, primarily due to lower selling prices resulting from higher promotions for inventory clearance of old Nio models and an increased product mix of the ONVO brand, the analyst told investors in a research note.The firm opined that achieving volume scale is fundamental to Nio improving margins and that the 50,000 monthly units target by year-end appears challenging, especially amid intensifying competition in China.Bank of America (BofA) also lowered the firm's price target on Nio to $4.30 from $4.90 and kept a ‘Neutral’ rating on the shares following the Q1 miss.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around Nio turned from ‘bullish’ to ‘extremely bullish’ over the past 24 hours while message volume remains ‘high’.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1254/134;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_06_04_at_8_27_01_AM_png_ef835a8e5d.webp" alt="NIO's Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 8:20 a.m. ET on June 4, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits" width="1254" height="134"><figcaption>NIO's Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 8:20 a.m. ET on June 4, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure><a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/NIO">NIO stock</a> is down by 22% this year and by about 32% over the past 12 months.Read Next: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/crowdstrike-stock-slumps-post-q1-print-as-analysts-turn-cautious/chkuff6RbwY">CrowdStrike Stock Slumps Post Q1 Print As Analysts Turn Cautious: Retail Seizes Pullback Opportunity</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
