Value of Litecoin Rises Nearly 400% in 3 Days
Bitcoin isn't the only cryptocurrency getting all the love from speculators. Altcoin Litecoin has grown nearly 400% in the matter of 3 days, to a high of almost $50 USD.

The question of everyone's mind, however, is whether or not the price will continue to rise further. We'll keep an eye on it. [via CoinDesk]
