View all Kaiko Rates and Indices on our new live dashboard.


Kaiko is pleased to announce the launch of Blue Chip Indices, tracking the top 5, 10, and 15 digital assets. This suite of indices is designed to empower financial product issuers and investment professionals with a trusted benchmark for digital asset markets.

With thousands of assets trading on 100+ exchanges, benchmarking digital asset markets is no simple task. Product issuers also face the challenge of identifying reliable and regulated indices to issue their products on. 

Kaiko’s Blue Chip Indices solve for this, serving as a fair market representation that mirrors the rigor and diversity of index products found in traditional finance. The index methodology is transparent and expert-built, leveraging:

Strict asset and exchange vetting using multiple filters, including liquidity and tradability, with the aim of achieving fair market representation

Quarterly rebalancing to adapt for market changes

Rigorous pricing methodology powered by Kaiko’s Digital Asset Rates

Buffering rules for stable composition and a dual weighting framework

Head of Kaiko Indices, Alexandre Ruggeri commented on the launch: “Our suite of Blue Chip Indices, which are administered in compliance with EU BMR, will allow investors to gain exposure to the digital asset market via its most tradable and representative constituents.”

Blue Chip Indices are accompanied by the launch of Kaiko’s live indices dashboard, displaying price updates, charts, and available product coverage. Users can leverage this platform to gain insights about our full suite of rates and indices.
