CryptoCompare and Nasdaq to Launch a Crypto Pricing Product
- The Nasdaq/CryptoCompare Aggregate Crypto Reference Prices will be targeted to institutional crypto investors.
Digital asset data provider CryptoCompare has partnered with Nasdaq to launch a cryptocurrency pricing product - the Nasdaq/CryptoCompare Aggregate Crypto Reference Prices.
The product will enable institutional investors to monitor the nascent digital asset class and assess investment opportunities using a trusted data source, according to Tuesday’s announcement. It will also enhance institutional capabilities in the cryptocurrency markets across trading strategy, quantitative research, risk modeling, NAV calculations, and back-testing.
The pricing product will be available on Nasdaq-owned financial data platform Quandl and will provide minute-by-minute pricing data for the most liquid cryptocurrency markets. The market data for the product will be fetched from CryptoCompare’s aggregate index datasets.
“We are delighted to partner with Nasdaq on a joint Aggregate Crypto Reference Prices product. Reliable data is the bedrock of transparent, liquid markets and by bringing our high quality, granular dataset to a global institutional client base, via the Quandl platform, we will give traders and investors a competitive edge,” Charles Hayter, co-founder and CEO of CryptoCompare said.
