In recent news, Litecoin foundation announced partnering with Cred, a licensed lender that offers its services in 190 countries.

Use cases play an important role in defining any cryptocurrency and with this recent partnership, Litecoin will be able to provide LTC holder with an ability to earn interest up to 10%. According to the press release shared by the foundation:

“Litecoin holders will be able to commit to a six-month term and receive monthly interest payments, with the option to roll over pledged assets for additional periods.”
