ethereum

Ethereum is the first decentralized open-source blockchain with smart contract functionality, first proposed by Vitalik Buterin in a white paper at the end of 2013 and launched in 2015. Ethereum allows anyone to deploy decentralized smart contracts and applications, serving as the foundation for an interoperable, decentralized application ecosystem driven by token economics and automated smart contracts. Assets and applications designed on Ethereum are built through automatically executed smart contracts without the need for central authorities or intermediaries. The network is powered by its native cryptocurrency ETH, which is used to pay transaction fees on the network. Ethereum is characterized by being open-source, programmable, and censorship-resistant, making it a pillar of the decentralized internet.

first_img CME launches a new cryptocurrency index that does not include Bitcoin and Ethereum

On Monday, CME Group officially launched two multi-asset cryptocurrency benchmark indices, one covering a broad market index and a "Emerging Crypto Index" specifically measuring large crypto assets beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum. The CME CF Emerging Crypto Index excludes Bitcoin and Ethereum, tracking a total of 10 assets: BNB, XRP, SOL, HYPE, LINK, XLM, SUI, UNI, AVAX, and AAVE; while the CME CF Crypto Market Index includes Bitcoin and Ethereum in addition to the aforementioned 10 assets.Both indices are weighted by free float market capitalization and undergo component adjustments and rebalancing every six months. The real-time version is calculated once per second and operates around the clock; the settlement version is calculated once daily and published at 4 PM London, New York, and Singapore/Hong Kong time. The methodology for the Emerging Index requires component assets to meet custody conditions, exclude meme coins, and set protocol usage rate screening thresholds based on the ratio of total locked value to total market capitalization. At the time of initial inclusion, assets that do not yet meet the general listing standards for cryptocurrency ETFs on U.S. national securities exchanges but are expected to be compliant within 30 days may temporarily enter the index with a maximum combined weight of 10%.The index is designed to be investable and can be used for passive replication by funds and derivative settlements, continuing the precedent set by CME's launch of Nasdaq CME Crypto Index futures in June. CF Benchmarks stated that the Emerging Index can be licensed for financial products, investment funds, or derivative instruments.

first_img Bitcoin spot ETFs ended nine days of net inflows, while Ethereum ETFs continued their inflow momentum

On August 28, the U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF recorded a net outflow of $201.9 million, ending a nine-day streak of net inflows since mid-August. According to SoSoValue data, this reversal reduced the cumulative net inflow to approximately $55.1 billion, with total net assets of about $93.9 billion. Decrypt's ETF flow tracker turned the Bitcoin sentiment reading to "bearish" on that day.The previous strong performance was particularly remarkable: the Bitcoin ETF had accumulated inflows of $2.8 billion during an eight-day rally, during which Bitcoin briefly tested the $80,000 mark and recorded the largest single-day inflow since May, with a peak single-day inflow exceeding $600 million on August 20. In contrast, the Ethereum ETF showed no signs of weakness, with a net inflow of $102.1 million on August 28, extending its streak of inflows to ten days, with a cumulative net inflow of approximately $12.9 billion and total net assets of about $13.8 billion.As the flow of funds diverged, Bitcoin fell back due to hawkish remarks from Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh at Jackson Hole, after a rally that had pushed prices close to $80,000. Over the weekend, Bitcoin rebounded to around $79,000. Analysts pointed out that the single-day outflow relative to the fund's cumulative size remains moderate, and the interruption of the rally may not necessarily indicate a widespread reversal in institutional demand.
