    • 2024 October 15, Helene Braun, “Ex-Valkyrie Founder’s Canary Capital Group Files for First Litecoin ETF”, in CoinDesk[1] (in English), archived from the original on 15 October 2024:
      The token is the native cryptocurrency of Litecoin, an open-source blockchain project whose code is copied from Bitcoin’s. Though several non-native ETF issuers have launched crypto funds this year, this is the first filing for a fund tied to LTC. [] LTC jumped 5% higher on the news of the filing, trading at $66.46 as of price time.

Usage notes

This code conflicts with the currency coding standardization rules in ISO 4217, as currency codes beginning with LT are reserved for Lithuania, due to that being its ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code.
