Litecoin records network growth
On Dec. 1, the Litecoin team reported that the LTC network processed six million transactions in the past month, reflecting network growth. The number of active unique addresses on the network also hit 6.3 million in November as well.
According to IntoTheBlock data, Litecoin’s total addresses with a balance have also reached a new high of 9.28 million.
In the long run, the total number of addresses with a balance reflects the interest in holding and investing in a specific crypto asset. A rise in the number of addresses with a balance is generally considered beneficial because it indicates a more robust and growing user base.
LTC was down 1.86% in the last 24 hours to $71.86 at the time of writing.
