For instance, Finder\u2019s expert panels suggest DOGE prices will hit <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/finders-experts-predict-dogecoin-price-should-hit-1-21-by-2025-and-3-60-by-2030\/\">$1.21 by 2025 and $3.60 by 2030<\/a>. Additionally, another panel report from finder.com shows experts believe ether\u2019s value will reach <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/finders-experts-predict-ethereum-will-reach-4-5k-this-year-18k-in-2025\/\">$4.5K this year and $18K by 2025<\/a>. The Finder panel with 42 fintech candidates that discussed <a href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/LTC\">litecoin (LTC)<\/a> shows most panelists agree, <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/LTC\">LTC<\/a> is predicted to be worth $266 by the end of the year.<\/p>\n<p>However, since the rise of a number of different crypto assets, <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/LTC\">LTC<\/a> has lost its place within the top ten market capitalization positions. The crypto asset was a top ten contender for at least a decade but in recent times it has been pushed down by competitors. Today, <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/LTC\">LTC<\/a> rests in the 14th position in terms of market capitalization with a $12.53 billion market cap. Finder\u2019s panelists don\u2019t believe litecoin can make it back into the top ten and 76% of the fintech experts think that it won\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>The Finder\u2019s panel, that discussed <a href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/LTC\">litecoin (LTC)<\/a> predictions, included Sagi Bakshi the CEO of Coinmama, Joseph Raczynksi the technologist from Thomson Reuters, and the University of East London Senior Lecturer, Dr. Iwa Salami. 81% of the finder.com panelists say litecoin is losing relevance. However, one individual was a lot more bullish toward <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/LTC\">LTC<\/a> than the rest of the panel, and told Finder that his predictions for each year included \u201c$900, $3,000 and $6,000.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- growjs zone placement 31 -->    <!-- end of growjs zone placement --> <\/p>\n<h2>A Third of Panelist Think Charlie Lee\u2019s Litecoin Sale Tarnished the Coin\u2019s Image<\/h2>\n<p>John Hawkins, the senior lecturer at the University of Canberra, gave Finder the lowest price forecast for <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/LTC\">LTC<\/a> and his prediction is around $80 per unit. \u201cLitecoin now has little media profile and seems to offer no advantage over bitcoin,\u201d Hawkins stressed. The CEO of Allnodes, Konstantin Boyko-Romanovsky, said that <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/LTC\">LTC<\/a> will be $180 by the year\u2019s end and worth more than $300 by 2025.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe price of Litecoin does not always seem to correlate with the price of Bitcoin, which is very interesting to observe. However, it makes it even harder to predict <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/LTC\">LTC<\/a>\u2019s price 10 years down the road,\u201d the Allnodes executive said.<\/p>\n<p>15% of the Finder panelists think <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/LTC\">LTC<\/a> can make the top ten again by the year\u2019s end. A third of the whole group said that Charlie Lee\u2019s <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/LTC\">LTC<\/a> sale \u201ctarnished litecoin\u2019s reputation.\u201d Still, some believe that <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/LTC\">LTC<\/a> has brand recognition and the co-founder of Trade the Chain, Ryan Gorman\u2019s outlook is on the bullish side.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople new to the space will continue to trade Litecoin because it is always one of the first crypto assets added to new on-ramps like Paypal, Venmo, etc. That built-in support should help it continue to gain value despite being mostly irrelevant,\u201d Gorman remarked.
