According to Santiment, Litecoin has experienced a significant increase in value due to legitimate ETF rumors, despite typically lacking the social media attention that other top cryptocurrencies like XRP, Solana, Chainlink, or Cardano receive. This increase was observed between February 2 and February 19, 2025. This development may affect trading strategies as investors consider the potential impacts of an ETF on Litecoin's market performance.

According to EmberCN, HTX recently executed a token burn of 9.98 trillion $HTX, valued at $22.47 million, as part of their 2024 Q4 strategy. This brings the total $HTX burned and donated for liquidity in 2024 to 49.63 trillion, approximately 5% of the total supply of 999.99 trillion. The deflationary measure at this scale suggests a 5% annual decrease in supply, which could enhance the token's value by linking platform growth with $HTX price increases, as faster burns indicate improved platform performance and lead to quicker deflation and potential price appreciation.
