Summary
Canary Capital's Litecoin spot ETF recorded a net inflow of $581,140 on October 19, 2026, after seven days with no recorded flows, according to Pluang. The inflow came during a generally weak week for large cryptocurrencies, in which most major coins declined. Litecoin's price held steady at around $61.47 over the same period, outperforming much of the market.

The fund is US-based and is not available to retail investors in the European Union. EU investors seeking Litecoin exposure are limited to exchange-traded notes (ETNs) or direct purchases of the coin through crypto exchanges. Pluang advises investors to weigh tax treatment, custody arrangements and regulatory status when choosing a holding method.

Pluang also flagged pending EU anti-money-laundering rules that could affect Litecoin's MWEB privacy feature from mid-2027. The regulatory timeline is a factor for EU-based holders evaluating longer-term exposure.

As of 13:41 WIB on October 21, 2026, LTC traded on Pluang at Rp1.101.886, up 2.99% on the day. Pluang reported a market capitalization of Rp85,54 trillion and 24-hour trading volume of Rp4,73 trillion. Order activity was predominantly sell-side at 77%, and typical holders kept LTC for about 78 days.

Related flow data from the same period shows mixed altcoin ETF activity. Zcash (ZEC) spot ETFs drew $1.61 million in net inflows on October 20, while Solana, Hyperliquid and NEAR spot ETFs recorded outflows. On October 19, Litecoin and NEAR ETFs attracted inflows while Solana and Zcash ETFs saw outflows.
