Hashdex has filed an amendment with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to modify its Nasdaq Crypto Index US ETF, adding Litecoin (LTC) to its list of assets.
Previously, the ETF included only Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), but this change signals a broader investment approach.
Following the amendment, the ETF will now include nine cryptocurrencies, expanding beyond BTC and ETH to also hold Solana (SOL), XRP, Cardano (ADA), Chainlink (LINK), Avalanche (AVAX), Litecoin (LTC), and Uniswap (UNI).
Each of these assets represents a different segment of the crypto market, from smart contracts to decentralized finance (DeFi).
By incorporating more assets, Hashdex aims to offer investors broader exposure to the evolving digital asset space while maintaining compliance with U.S. regulations. The addition of Litecoin, one of the oldest and most widely used cryptocurrencies, further strengthens the fund’s appeal to traditional and crypto-native investors alike.
According to CoinMarketCap data, Litecoin is trading at $93.21, up 2.57% in the last day, and has a market cap of $954K.
