# Grayscale Litecoin Trust amends cascading rules for determining Index Price of LTC

## Summary
- Effective January 11, 2022, the Sponsor updated the cascading set of rules used to determine the Index Price of Litecoin for operational purposes.
- The new cascading rules include: 1) CoinDesk Litecoin Price Index (LTX), 2) Coin Metrics Real-Time Rate, 3) principal market spot price, 4) Sponsor's good faith estimate.
- The changes aim to provide a clear methodology for valuation when primary index is unavailable or deemed inaccurate.
- The cascading rules are used for non-GAAP operational valuation, not for financial statements.
