Advantages of ELTC

Trades like an ETF

Buy and sell like any stock or ETF through your regular broker or bank. No new account needed, just enter the ticker or ISIN on your trading platform.

Cold-storage custody

The Litecoin is kept in cold-storage at a regulated custodian, and all assets are secured by an independent trustee, thus eliminating issuer default risk.

100% physical

You are legally entitled to the underlying litecoin, and you can redeem the ETP for the cryptocurrency, alternatively to selling on exchange.

Regulated security

Issued in Germany under German regulatory oversight, the ETP’s primary listing is on XETRA, the largest ETF exchange in Europe.
