A single CAHIL made a comment, "Is Litecoin remaining in 2026?" 🥲
BitPay, the oldest and most established platform for crypto payments based in the USA, sometimes ranks Litecoin payments second, occasionally even first, depending on the ratio, which is almost the same as Bitcoin.
CoinGate, a platform based in Europe with thousands of e-commerce store integrations and broad altcoin support, especially prominent in online commerce, ranks third in Litecoin payments. Even on a platform supporting over 70 coins like CoinGate, LTC has surpassed giants like Ethereum, Solana, and TRX. This shows how actively LTC is used in thousands of e-commerce stores across Europe.
The market share and preference distribution table from SQ Magazine's extensive research represents an average of data from various payment gateways in the market, rather than a single platform.
Bitcoin 42%
Stablecoins 30%
Ethereum 25%
Litecoin 12%
XRP 5%
