Glassnode analytics supplier has published several tweets, revealing that over the past twenty-four hours, LTC median transaction volume has surged almost thirty percent.

A likely inflow of new users
Litecoin has seen a rise in newly registered addresses: a new four-month high of 2,293.458. Glassnode says that a previous increase over the same period was recorded on July 30.
