Litecoin fell over one percent, or $0.4 on Friday, trimming weekly gains and resuming decline off November 19 highs for the sixth session out of 11. 

 

As of 05:14 GMT, Litecoin shed 1.21% to $31.935, with a session-low at $31.857, and a high at $32.405. 

 

Litecoin is up 4% this week after marking 7% gains earlier this session, which came after slumping 24% last week away from two-month highs at $42.229, as cryptocurrencies suffered after the Ethereum Classic's network suffered a $1 million security breach. 

 

Bloomberg recently reported that an ECB member warned that the crypto bubble is starting to already burst. 

 

Ardo Hansson, governor of Estonia's central bank warned that cryptocurrency are heading to an end, with the world currently witenssing "the collapse" according to him. 

 

The Path of Litecoin

 

Litecoin was first publicly offered in the first half of 2013 at only $3, marking record lows at below $1 in early 2015 before taking off on its long and spotted journey higher. 

 

The cryptocurrency pierced $100 for the first time on November 29, 2017, before scaling a record high at $370.78 on December 19, and plummeting back below $100 on June 12, before marking 1-1/5 year lows recently at $22.54.
