The launch of S&P's first crypto index sends an interesting message about how parts of the industry are evolving.

But what we're trying to bring are the same sort of principles that we have in our equity indices into digital assets. So when you think about the seasoning period, the revenue generation, the listing requirement, the liquidity behind these different protocols for these tokens, these are the things that we think matter for serious investors and asset managers in the digital asset space. And so we think because there's this likeness between what we deliver in equity indices and into this new benchmark for digital assets, we think it'll make sense for the investing public. But Bitcoin's not in here? Bitcoin is not in there because it's really not one of those revenue-generating protocols that we think belongs in this index.
