What’s CoinDesk 20’s place in the Ecosystem?

As the new digital asset class emerges beyond Bitcoin, so does the opportunity for a new reference index to measure performance, invest and trade. CoinDesk Indices (CDI), a subsidiary of CoinDesk, a provider of digital asset indices and taxonomy standards, captures over 90% of the digital asset market with the CoinDesk 20 Index. Built for trading with digital asset derivatives in mind, the index is designed to be liquid and offer diversification benefits across all constituents.
