Index

A crypto Index provides a way for investors to gain diversified exposure to a specific basket of digital assets through a single tokenized product. These indices often track specific sectors, such as DeFi, DePIN, or RWA, and are automatically rebalanced via smart contracts. In 2026, AI-managed thematic indices have become the gold standard for passive investing, allowing users to track the "blue chips" of the Web3 economy without manual portfolio management. This tag covers index methodology, rebalancing frequency, and the benefits of diversified crypto baskets.

S&P’s New Index Blends 15 Cryptos With 35 Crypto-Linked Stocks

The post S&P’s New Index Blends 15 Cryptos With 35 Crypto-Linked Stocks appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. S&P Dow Jones Indices, a division of S&P Global, plans to launch a new hybrid index that blends traditional equity markets with digital assets, offering a fresh option for investors looking to navigate the fast-changing crypto sector, the company announced Tuesday. The S&P Digital Markets 50 Index will track 35 publicly traded companies involved in crypto infrastructure, blockchain applications and financial services, alongside 15 cryptocurrencies drawn from S&P’s existing Broad Digital Market Index. The result is a cross-asset benchmark that captures the performance of both the firms building the digital asset ecosystem and the tokens driving it. Dinari, a platform that tokenizes U.S. public equities, collaborated on the index design and will issue a token, called a “dShare,” to let investors track the index directly on-chain. The token is designed to be transparent and accessible across blockchain platforms. The move reflects a broader trend: institutional investors are increasingly treating digital assets as part of their core portfolios, not just speculative bets. “From North America to Europe to Asia, market participants are beginning to treat digital assets as part of their investment toolkit,” said Cameron Drinkwater, chief product & operations officer at S&P Dow Jones Indices. In practical terms, the index could appeal to investors who want exposure to crypto without going all-in on volatile tokens. Crypto stocks have surged in popularity this year as a wave of digital asset companies go public and U.S. regulators begin to provide clearer rules for the industry. Investors appear to be responding to both the improved regulatory outlook and the mainstreaming of crypto-related business models. Coinbase (COIN) has climbed 50% year-to-date. Meanwhile, Robinhood (HOOD), which has expanded its crypto offerings and acquired a crypto exchange earlier this year, has seen its stock rise more than 250% since January. Dinari’s tokenization effort also represents a…

Altcoin Listed on Major Exchanges Announces Significant Investment: Falling Price Drops Further

Altcoin Listed on Major Exchanges Announces Significant Investment: Falling Price Drops Further

The post Altcoin Listed on Major Exchanges Announces Significant Investment: Falling Price Drops Further appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Grass (GRASS), the Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) project operating within the Solana ecosystem, raised $10 million in a bridge investment round led by Polychain Capital and Tribe Capital. The investment primarily consisted of token purchases. Grass has previously closed both a seed and Series A funding round. The project aims to allow users to sell their idle internet bandwidth, allowing data to be shared under user control rather than being collected by large corporations for profit. The GRASS price, already declining, fell even further following the announcement. Grass co-founder Andrej Radonjic said in a statement, “Grass is a piece of technology that gives companies access to data at an unprecedented scale. The possibilities that can be built upon it are virtually endless. We plan to develop new solutions, especially around live context.” According to Radonjic, AI companies currently scrape data to train their models, often using search engines. However, this method is limited by scalability and access barriers. Grass offers an alternative infrastructure that provides internet-scale data access. *This is not investment advice.

(Photo by Cooper Neill/Getty Images) Getty Images Key Facts The $250,000 fine, which was first reported by ESPN can be appealed, according to the NFL. Videos on social media appear to show Jones giving a thumbs up to fans during the Cowboys’ away game at Metlife Stadium before directing his eyesight lower, flashing his middle finger and then pointing his index finger at fans. Jones told Dallas radio station 105.3 The Fan on Tuesday the gesture was “inadvertent.” Jones added the gesture was made after the Cowboys scored a touchdown, noting, “There wasn’t any antagonistic issue or anything like that, I just put up the wrong show on the hand.” It is also unclear whether Jones, who is also the Cowboys team president and general manager, violated a specific NFL rule or policy, though the league says fines are used as a “last resort” when disciplining violations.
