Flappening

In 2018, the 'flappening' occurred when Litecoin overtook Bitcoin Cash in market capitalization. This event caused a stir in the cryptocurrency community, with many people debating which coin was better. Litecoin had always been seen as the silver to Bitcoin's gold, but this event showed that it could potentially overtake Bitcoin in the future. This caused many people to invest in Litecoin, and its price surged in the following months. However, Bitcoin Cash eventually regained its position as the fourth largest cryptocurrency, and Litecoin's price fell back down. Nevertheless, the flappening was a significant event in the cryptocurrency world, and it showed that Litecoin is a force to be reckoned with.
