Litecoin Price Prediction: Major whales quietly increasing positions after inclusion in Bitwise ETF signals accumulation
Litecoin (LTC) has recently been officially included in the Bitwise 10 Cryptocurrency Index ETF (BITW), which was listed on the NYSE Arca on December 9, 2025. This marks Litecoin's first entry into a mainstream regulated investment framework as an index component, alongside core assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, representing an important upgrade in market positioning.
It should be noted that Litecoin's weight in BITW is only about 0.26%, far below Bitcoin's 74% and Ethereum's 15%. Therefore, this inclusion more reflects regulatory approval and an enhancement of the asset's "legitimacy" rather than a short-term influx of funds or direct trading demand. The ETF itself has not changed Litecoin's marginal position in the index but has strengthened its market image as a mature cryptocurrency asset.
