LTC and BCH premiums show eye-twitching surge

While premiums for the Bitcoin Trust, Ethereum Trust and ETC Trust remain negative (-13.88% for GBTC, -0.29% for ETHE and -13.5% for ETCG), the premiums LTC and BTC products are trading at have demonstrated a massive spike.

The Litecoin Trust shares (LTCN) is trading at a whopping 859.42 percent premium ($235.25 per share vs. $24.52 NAV) and Bitcoin Cash Trust shares (BCHG) is changing hands at +238.69 percent premium ($29.94 per share vs. $8.84 NAV).

Extremely high Grayscale premiums indicate overbought products, showing investors begin to lock in their profits.
