SBI VC Trade Adds Litecoin to Japanese Lending Program

Okuma süresi: 3 dk
  • SBI VC Trade added Litecoin to its regulated lending program for Japanese users. 
  • LTC holders can earn yield through fixed-term lending on a fully FSA-licensed exchange.
  • LTC price sits near long-term support, eyeing a breakout of the broader market rallies.

SBI VC Trade, the crypto exchange arm of Japan’s SBI Holdings, has added Litecoin to its lending service. Applications opened on January 29, 2026, at 8:00 p.m. JST under the platform’s “Lending Coin” program.

Notably, Japanese users can now lend LTC and earn interest directly through a fully licensed domestic exchange.

The service is available only to verified users in Japan. Repayment is made in LTC, including earned fees. Early termination is not allowed, and any hard forks during the lending period do not result in additional token payouts.

How the Lending Program Works

SBI VC Trade operates under Japan’s Financial Services Agency and offers spot trading, staking, and lending. The lending program supports more than 30 cryptocurrencies, including BTC, ETH, XRP, LTC, BCH, DOT, LINK, ADA, DOGE, and SHIB.

Assets are lent for fixed terms, typically between 7 and 28 days. Interest is calculated using a fixed formula based on the amount lent, the annual rate, and the lending period.

Annual rates vary by asset and term and can reach up to 20% for certain offerings. Lending income is treated as miscellaneous income under Japanese tax law.

Litecoin launched in 2011 as a faster payment-focused network with lower fees than Bitcoin. As of February 3, LTC trades near $59, with a market capitalization of about $4.57 billion and daily volume around $462 million.

LTC Price Structure on the Weekly Chart

LTC trades near the $58 to $60 zone after failing to hold above $90 earlier in the cycle. The weekly chart shows price moving back into a long-term demand area between $50 and $55. This zone has acted as support multiple times since 2022.

Momentum indicators are weak but stabilizing. RSI sits below the midpoint, and the next resistance sits near $80, followed by a broader supply zone between $110 and $135, where price was rejected in 2024 and 2025.

If the $50 support holds, LTC could attempt a rebound toward $80. A weekly close above that level would open room toward $110 and $135. In a stronger market cycle, extension targets stretch toward $190, $236, and $260.

The bearish case remains a breakdown below $50. That would expose downside toward $42 and then $35. However, a move into those levels would signal broader market weakness rather than a Litecoin-specific failure.

SEC New Standards to Simplify Crypto ETF Listings

SEC New Standards to Simplify Crypto ETF Listings

The post SEC New Standards to Simplify Crypto ETF Listings appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved a new standard for crypto ETF listings on Wednesday. The standard is created to simplify the working of exchanges in terms of the process followed for crypto ETP listings. This makes it possible to to avoid the cumbersome route of case-by-case approval being followed so far. With this change, exchanges can bypass the 19(b) rule filing process. It is a review that can stretch up to 240 days and demands direct SEC approval before an ETF can launch. Instead of going through the tedious and lengthy review process, the SEC has set up a system that allows exchanges to act more quickly. Now, when an ETF issuer presents a product idea to exchanges like Nasdaq, NYSE, or CBOE, the exchange can move ahead as long as the proposal meets the generic listing standard. This means that strategies based on a single token or a basket of tokens can be listed without waiting for individual approval. New Standards Will Ease Crypto ETF Listings: SEC Chairman According to the Chairman of the SEC, Paul Atkins, this move is aimed at making it easier for investors to access digital asset products through regulated U.S. markets. He noted that by approving generic listing standards, the agency is helping U.S. capital markets remain a global leader in digital asset innovation. At the same time, the SEC approved the Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund, a fund made up of Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Cardano and Solana. Furthermore, the SEC also approved a new type of options linked to the Cboe Bitcoin U.S. ETF Index and its mini version. This step further expands the range of crypto-linked derivatives available in regulated U.S. markets. How Will SEC General Listing Standard Impact Altcoin Crypto ETF Market? The SEC’s updated listing standards could clear…
