From a steep low that was seen on 26 July, the interest from whales can be seen increasing at a steady amount with the price following suit.
Although it is a bullish indicator, a high correlation between the price and whale action could make the cryptocurrency vulnerable to a pump and dump.
Even though an increase in wallets holding $10 million is a good sign, there need to be more indicators of stability in altcoin’s growth.
Luckily we can see that the number of unique addresses being registered has been growing.
With Litecoin boasting 150 million unique addresses, second only to Bitcoin and Ethereum in this regard, things are looking up for LTC.

The price and the on-chain metrics aren’t the only things on Litecoin’s side, it seems as if the Canadian government has given its nod of approval to the coin as well.
No Cap
In an unprecedented move, the Canadian government recently decided to put a cap on retail investors’ expenditure on crypto, limiting them to $30k CAD.
The cryptocurrencies exempt from this are Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and Bitcoin cash.
Evidently, Litecoin has taken a seat with the big players in crypto. This kind of approval from the Canadian government may result in a growth of investors’ trust in the altcoin.
