Litecoin
Litecoin ($LTC) celebrated 15 years of continuous operation, with Grayscale's Zach Pandl calling it an 'OG altcoin'. The network processes 156,000 daily transactions, has a record privacy pool of 563,000 LTC, and low fees. Grayscale's Litecoin Trust (LTCN) has $97.56M in assets and seeks NYSE listing via a spot ETF.
Litecoin's atomic swap integration via BasicSwap DEX is nearing release, with the feature running on mainnet in the latest Nexus wallet. Technical indicators show LTC at $69.17, with resistance at $69.21 and support at $68.7, suggesting continued consolidation.
Virtune's Crypto Altcoin Index ETP replaced Gram (GRAM) with Litecoin (LTC) during its October 2026 rebalancing, with each of the ten holdings now at 10% weight. The ETP, traded on Deutsche Börse Xetra (ticker VRTA), follows index rules, not market views, for adjustments. Litecoin's inclusion did not coincide with a price jump, and the change reflects index criteria, not investment recommendations.
