Litecoin price rises as LTC ETF approval odds jump

Litecoin price rose by almost 10% on Saturday, becoming one of the best-performing coins asthe odds of an exchange-traded fund approval rose. Litecoin ( LTC ) rose for the third consecutive day, reaching its highest level since Jan. 18, and 47% above its lowest point this month. Its rebound was because CoinShares, a company with nearly $10 billion in assets, filed for a spot LTC with the Securities and Exchange Commission. It joins Canary , which also applied for a similar fund a few months ago. Crypto analysts are optimistic that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will approve a Litecoin ETF because of its similarity with Bitcoin. Litecoin is a Bitcoin hard fork and is a proof-of-work cryptocurrency that the SEC does not view as an unregistered security.

Earlier this month, the agency sought some comments from Canary, a common step towards an approval. Litecoin ETF now has all the boxes checked. The first alt coin ETF of 2025 is about to be on the clock. I don't see any reason why this would be withdrawn either given SEC gave comments on the S-1, litecoin is seen as commodity and there's new SEC sheriff in town. https://t.co/DaE7jxlb9s — Eric Balchunas (@EricBalchunas) January 16, 2025 A Litecoin ETF approval will be a positive thing for the coin as it may bring fresh institutional capital. However, the recent trends in Ethereum ( ETH ) and Bitcoin ( BTC ) ETFs show that institutional demand may be thin. Spot BTC ETFs have accumulated almost $40 billion in assets, while Ethereum funds have just $2.8 billion.

The uptrend will become invalid if the coin drops below the support at $92.7. Read more: Cathie Wood credits crypto deregulation for ‘unleashing animal spirits’
