New DeFi Cryptocurrency Index Feature In NasDaq

NasDaq is adding a new index that is purportedly dedicated to blockchain projects focused on decentralized finance featuring projects such as Augur, Maker and 0x.

This was made possible with NasDaq’s partnership with Exante, a European investment services firm that was established in 2011 to offer global multi-asset financial services.

Decentralized Finance Index (DeFix) is the first index that reflects the real-time dynamics of sic decentralized finance solutions: Augur, Gnosis, Amoveo, Numerai, and 0x enabling investors to speculate on these platforms.

The ticker symbol of the index is DEFX and is already listed and available for tracking on the Nasdaq Global Index Data Service SM (GIDS) and other financial platforms.

DEFX will join the growing list of crypto-related indexes on Nasdaq such as the Bitcoin Liquid Index (BLX), the Ethereum Liquid Index (ELX) and the XRP Liquid Index (XRPLX).
