SIX Launches New Crypto Reference Rates

The global financial information provider, SIX, has
launched the new SIX Reference Rate Crypto and SIX Real-Time Crypto Indices,
aiming to serve as benchmarks for AsiaNext’s crypto derivatives trading
platform and institutional investors worldwide.

The financial information provider has introduced a set
of indices aimed at enhancing crypto trading. The new SIX Reference Rate Crypto
and SIX Real-Time Crypto Indices promise to offer unprecedented transparency
and reliability in the crypto market.

These indices cover major crypto assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum, providing a comprehensive overview of the market’s
performance.

Dr. Christian Bahr, the Head of Index Services and Financial Information at SIX, mentioned: “The introduction of these BTC
and ETH Indices underlines our dedication to delivering sophisticated and
well-tailored solutions for very specific use-cases, such as crypto derivatives
trading. I am confident that these benchmarks will serve as an indispensable
tool for AsiaNext and foster the creation of an ecosystem between derivative
exchanges and institutional investors”.

AsiaNext, a digital asset trading venue co-founded
by SIX and SBI Digital Asset Holdings, is set to benefit from these indices.
