This emerges from a joint press release by the companies on December 3rd. Thereafter, the cooperation is to serve the growing demand from investors for benchmarking and index solutions for blockchain assets. Bitcoin and Co. are a “rapidly developing asset class” and the “time is ripe for independent, reliable and user-friendly benchmarks”, says Peter Roffmann, Global Head of Innovation and Strategy at S&P Dow Jones Indices.
