you dont need to do ANY research on litecoin. Its like researching bitcoin? its POW its the original altcoin, it is as stable and here to stay as Bitcoin its done 9 or 10 years of base building. Thats enough to push it up big time in a bull run. XMR is more not sure, it will be de listed from every single centralised exchange at some point. There will be massive bull run on that news but liquidating it is going to get harder and harder. Its 50 50 but i think it will prove a point one day.
