S&P Dow Jones launches three cryptocurrency indexes
Cryptocurrencies have penetrated the traditional financial markets recently. Namely, several banks and platforms have started offering crypto-related services to their customers. Take the case of S&P Dow Jones which has now listed their first cryptocurrency indexes, including Bitcoin and Ether.
Crypto indexes go live on S&P Dow Jones
S&P Dow Jones Indices introduced three cryptocurrency indexes yesterday, debuting Bitcoin and Ether in the process. In fact, this is the first time an index that tracks cryptocurrency performance will be available on the platform.In its announcement yesterday, S&P Dow Jones said, “These indices are designed to measure the performance of a selection of digital assets (crypto assets) listed on recognized, open exchanges that meet minimum liquidity and market capitalization criteria. The indices aim to bring transparency to the emerging cryptocurrency market.”
The newly-launched indexes include the Ether-based S&P Ethereum Index (SPETH), the Bitcoin-based S&P Bitcoin Index (SPBTC), and the S&P Cryptocurrency MegaCap Index (SPCMC). In addition, the third index is designed to track the performance of BTC and ETH as measured by market capitalization. Accordingly, the three indices are now live on the S&P Dow Jones Indices website.
S&P Dow Jones Index expected to be competitive
The launch of these three cryptocurrency indexes is a confirmation of the company’s previous announcement. In December, Cryptonary reported that S&P Dow Jones would be launching its cryptocurrency indexes. At the time, Bitwise and Bloomberg Galaxy Crypto Index were the only available benchmarks in the market. As of now, S&P Dow Jones will be providing stiff competition to them.S&P spokesman Ray McConville stated that the indexes measure appreciation and not the actual prices of the cryptocurrencies. “So comparing the two indices, we can see that bitcoin YTD (year to date) has grown 95.67% in value vs. ETH, which has grown 273.72% in value YTD. The actual index value isn’t so much as important as the change in that index value over time,” he added.
In addition, the company stated that crypto accounting and data company Lukka will provide the pricing and reference data. As a matter of fact, Lukka is supported by S&P Dow Jones Indices’ parent company S&P Global. As well, the firm is backed by accounting advisors CPA.com and billionaire investor George Soros.
Cryptocurrencies gaining recognition from traditional institutions
This latest development is yet another example of a traditional financial institution offering crypto-related services. The move comes during another cryptocurrency market rally. Yesterday, Ether charged to a new all-time high above $3,400.Continue reading by joining Cryptonary Pro

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?
We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
