Grayscale Litecoin Trust (LTC) (LTCN) is filing an amended shelf registration to issue on a continuous basis an indeterminate number of Shares, each a fractional undivided beneficial interest in LTC held by the Trust. Effectiveness and any offering will occur only after NYSE Arca’s Rule 19b-4 application to list the Shares is approved or deemed unnecessary. Upon effectiveness and listing, the Sponsor plans to rename the vehicle Grayscale Litecoin Trust ETF and list it on NYSE Arca under the symbol LTCN, with creations and redemptions limited to blocks of 10,000 Shares (“Baskets”) via cash orders routed through third-party Liquidity Providers. The Trust’s objective is for Share value to track the LTC it holds, based on a CoinDesk-derived Index Price, less expenses, but it is not an Investment Company Act fund or a CEA commodity pool and historically has traded at very large premiums and discounts to NAV.
Grayscale Litecoin Trust (LTC) (LTCN) reports that its net assets fell from $175.9 million at June 30, 2025 to $82.3 million at June 30, 2026, driven mainly by a sharp decline in Litecoin (LTC) prices and related unrealized losses.
The Trust held about 1.97 million LTC, with a Principal Market NAV of $3.39 per share and no redemptions or new share issuances during the year, leaving 24,252,100 shares outstanding. Each share represented roughly 0.0812 LTC as of June 30, 2026. The Trust continues to operate as a passive vehicle, charging a 2.5% annual Sponsor’s Fee paid in LTC, and its shares trade on OTCQX, often at a premium or discount to NAV given the lack of a redemption program.
Management reports effective disclosure controls and effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2026, with no auditor disagreements. The filing highlights extensive risk factors, including extreme LTC price volatility, regulatory uncertainty around digital assets, absence of an arbitrage mechanism to keep the share price close to NAV, and potential conflicts of interest involving the Sponsor and its affiliates.
Grayscale Litecoin Trust’s sponsor, Grayscale Investments Sponsors, LLC, is making a leadership change in its finance team. Effective July 2, 2026, Senior Vice Presidents of Finance Kathryn Masci and Daniel Plourde are appointed interim Co‑Chief Financial Officers.
Masci also joins the sponsor’s Board of Managers and becomes the Principal Financial and Accounting Officer of the trust. They succeed Edward McGee, who is stepping down after about seven years of service for personal reasons, with no stated disagreements regarding operations, policies, or practices.
Grayscale Litecoin Trust (LTC) filed an 8-K describing a change to the benchmark index it uses to value its holdings. On May 19, 2026, CoinDesk Indices, Inc. added the OSL LTC-USD trading pair as a Constituent Trading Platform in the CoinDesk Litecoin Benchmark Rate. No existing platforms were removed in this scheduled monthly review. The index now draws prices from multiple LTC-USD and LTC-U.S. Dollar coin trading venues, including Bitstamp by Robinhood, Crypto.com, Gemini, HashKey, Kraken, LMAX Digital, OKX, OSL, Binance, Bullish, Bybit and Gate. The index provider may change venues or calculation methods over time under its stated criteria.
Grayscale Litecoin Trust (LTC) reports sharply lower net assets as weaker Litecoin prices drove results for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2026. Net assets fell to $107.0 million from $175.9 million at June 30, 2025, as the LTC price declined from $87.11 to $54.01.
The Trust held about 1,981,369 LTC, all classified as Level 1 assets, and had no liabilities. Principal Market NAV per Share dropped to $4.41, producing a nine-month total return of -39.17%. Results were driven by a $65.6 million net realized and unrealized loss on LTC and a $3.3 million Sponsor’s Fee, which is charged at an annual rate of 2.5% of net assets.
Shares outstanding were stable at 24,252,100, and the Trust still does not offer redemptions. Management highlights the vehicle’s full concentration in Litecoin and its price volatility, while confirming effective disclosure controls and no material changes in risk factors or legal proceedings.
Grayscale Litecoin Trust (LTC) reported a sharp LTC-driven loss for the three and six months ended December 31, 2025. Net assets fell to $152,711 thousand, down from $175,867 thousand at June 30, 2025, as Litecoin’s price dropped from $87.11 to $76.60 per LTC on the Trust’s principal market, Coinbase.
The Trust held 1,993,620.84671430 LTC, all classified as Level 1 assets, and had 24,252,100 Shares outstanding, giving a GAAP Principal Market NAV of $6.30 per Share versus $7.25 at June 30. Net decrease in net assets from operations was ($61,694) thousand for the quarter and ($23,156) thousand for the six months, almost entirely reflecting unrealized depreciation in LTC plus a 2.5% annual Sponsor’s Fee totaling $2,548 thousand year-to-date, paid in LTC.
No new Shares were created during the current periods and the Trust still does not operate a redemption program, though the Sponsor notes that, subject to regulatory and Sponsor approval, a redemption program may be implemented in the future. The filing reiterates significant market, regulatory and custody risks tied to Litecoin and discloses that the Trust continues to be treated as a grantor trust for U.S. tax purposes.
A holder of LTCN common stock filed a notice to sell 16,464 common shares through broker Capital Institutional Services, Inc. on or around 01/30/2026 on the OTCQX market, with an aggregate market value of $84,625.00.
The filing notes that 24,252,100 common shares were outstanding for the issuer. The shares to be sold were acquired from the issuer in privately negotiated transactions on 02/22/2024 and 07/20/2024, totaling 16,464 shares for cash consideration in U.S. dollars.
Grayscale Litecoin Trust (LTC) reports that CoinDesk Indices, Inc., the Index Provider for the trust, has updated the digital asset trading platforms used to calculate the Litecoin benchmark rate that underlies the trust’s index price. Effective January 20, 2026, the Index Provider added Binance (LTC‑USDC), Gate (LTC‑USDC) and HashKey (LTC‑USD) as constituent trading platforms and removed Bitfinex (LTC‑USD) following its scheduled monthly review process. The current index now reflects LTC‑USD trading pairs from Bitstamp by Robinhood, Crypto.com, Gemini, HashKey, Kraken, LMAX Digital and OKX, and LTC‑USDC trading pairs from Binance, Bullish, Bybit, Gate, Kraken and OKX. The Index Provider states that it may modify constituents or calculation methods in future reviews based on its inclusion criteria.
Grayscale Litecoin Trust (LTC) filed an update explaining how it uses cashtags and interacts with third-party content on X (formerly Twitter). The sponsor, Grayscale Investments Sponsors, LLC, notes that when it uses a ticker symbol with a “$” on X, the platform automatically links to pages with market data, news, and commentary created by third parties. Grayscale states it does not control or endorse this X-generated content and is not responsible for its accuracy or timeliness. The trust emphasizes that investors should rely on Grayscale’s official SEC filings for authoritative and up-to-date information about the trust and its products.
Grayscale Litecoin Trust (LTC) reported that CoinDesk Indices, Inc., which maintains the index used to value the Trust’s Litecoin holdings, changed the trading platforms included in that index. Effective November 18, 2025, the Index Provider removed the itBit LTC-USD trading pair from the CoinDesk LTC CCIXber Reference Rate because itBit no longer met the provider’s conditions for inclusion.
The current index now uses LTC-USD trading pairs from Bitfinex, Bitstamp by Robinhood, Crypto.com, Gemini, Kraken, LMAX Digital, and OKX, and LTC-USDC trading pairs from Bullish, Bybit, Kraken, and OKX. The Index Provider can add or remove trading platforms, or otherwise adjust how the index is calculated, as part of its scheduled monthly reviews or at other times.
