In April 2019, CoinSpeaker reported of Nasdaq testing a Bitcoin-trading product.
The latest report is that Nasdaq has entered a strategic partnership with CryptoCompare to launch a new cryptocurrency pricing product called the Nasdaq/CryptoCompare Aggregate Crypto Reference Prices. CryptoCompare is one of the industry’s leading players for providing crypto-data and indices.

Similarly, in April 2019, Nasdaq listed two of CoinMarketCap’s crypto benchmark indices on its platform. The first index is called as CMC Crypto 200 Index (CMC200) which provides datasets considering Bitcoin and covering almost 90% of the global crypto market.
