LitePay is basically a payment processor that allows you to exchange your Litecoins for your fiat money from anywhere in the world. It is designed to be the first cross-border crypto payment network whose focus is on providing easy to use solutions.

With the Litecoin Cash hard fork, there has been a surge in the Litecoin price and now with the launch of LitePay here, it has been expected that there would be a huge boost in its prices as had been of 7 percent today. Currently, it ranks at the fifth spot in terms of popularity in the crypto world.

An easier & faster mode of crypto payment

It has been expected that LitePay will expand the adoption of altcoins and will further facilitate the interest in the Litecoin, especially from merchants. LTC can become a favored cryptocurrency if it becomes successful in allowing people to spend the cryptocurrency more easily. In result, more and more people will turn to this digital currency to use it for crypto payments.

As per LitePay, users will be able to receive the settlements directly in their bank accounts through Litecoin payment. This settlement would be in their own currency that too with no risk and no price volatility.

However, the major criticism that Litecoin has to face is having an unoriginal technology. But given its wider adoption and now allowing people to spend the coin, it will certainly work in its favor.

It has been widely predicted that soon the market capacity of Litecoin will surpass Bitcoin cash. And as the adoption of Litecoin grows, it is a high possibility that this might just happen.
