Hashdex has filed an amendment with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to update its Nasdaq Crypto Index US ETF by adding Litecoin (LTC) to its list of assets. Previously, the ETF consisted solely of Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), but this modification indicates a shift towards a more diversified investment strategy.
With the new amendment, the ETF will expand to include nine cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), XRP, Cardano (ADA), Chainlink (LINK), Avalanche (AVAX), Litecoin (LTC), and Uniswap (UNI). This broader range of assets represents various sectors within the crypto market, from smart contracts and decentralized finance (DeFi) to more traditional cryptocurrency assets.
Hashdex’s move aims to provide investors with broader exposure to the evolving digital asset space while adhering to U.S. regulatory standards. The inclusion of Litecoin, one of the oldest and most widely used cryptocurrencies, is expected to attract both traditional investors and crypto enthusiasts.
As of the latest data from CoinMarketCap, Litecoin is trading at $93.21, reflecting a 2.57% increase in the past 24 hours, with a market capitalization of $954 million.
