Nasdaq and CME Group Launch Crypto Index Signaling Institutional Adoption
Nasdaq, in partnership with CME Group, has officially launched the Nasdaq CME Crypto™ Index, reinforcing the growing convergence between traditional finance (TradFi) and the digital asset market.
The index tracks major cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Chainlink (LINK), alongside a select group of leading digital assets. This initiative provides institutions with a structured benchmark to gain exposure to the crypto market.
As global financial infrastructure evolves, Wall Street continues to integrate blockchain technology. Chainlink’s inclusion highlights its role as a core data and interoperability layer connecting traditional financial systems with on-chain markets.
Institutional adoption of crypto assets continues to accelerate.
