Reuters, the leading news network will soon have Hedge Project’s BC30 (Buchman Crypto 30 Index) cryptocurrency indices listed alongside its mainstream counterparts like S&P500 and others. With the inclusion of BC30 (Buchman Crypto 30 Index) on a popular global news media outlet, the cryptocurrency market is poised to handle extra attention it is going to get soon from mainstream investors and financial institutions as the industry’s credibility is gradually increasing as well.
The BC30 (Buchman Crypto 30 Index) index tracks the prices of top 30 cryptocurrencies — the strongest and most viable cryptocurrencies that make up for 90% of the total market capitalization. As Reuters includes the Hedge Project’s BC30 (Buchman Crypto 30 Index), market observers would be able to have unhindered access to the current prices the top digital currencies are trading at.
It could be recalled that Hedge Project recently launched its token sales with the ICO expected to last from 20 September to 15 October 2017. With the inclusion of BC30 (Buchman Crypto 30 Index) in Reuters’ streaming, Hedge Project is on its way to becoming the number one place to get crypto indices and be the industry’s authoritative source for cryptocurrency prices.
Hedge Project will also be listed on the Morningstar and Quandl, which are also highly reliable sources of information with a huge, loyal userbase.
Bitcoin Price index (BTCCX)
The cryptomarket is highly illiquid; therefore, it is difficult to see one price applying on all the exchanges at a time. This is mostly due to the fact that crypto market is an imperfect place. But BTCCX is the first commercial implementation of reference/benchmark price that mirrors the prices of bitcoin on up to five different exchanges, with emphasis on the most liquid ones.
As the Hedge project is to be streamed on Reuters, it would now be easier for a larger audience to understand what is happening on the Hedge project platform and how they can leverage it to get the best-priced bitcoin to purchase or where to sell their coins and make the highest profit.
Now that Reuters is listing Hedge Token, it is most likely that other news sites may consider joining the bandwagon by adding the project too. That would obviously increase the awareness about the site and increase customer base as more and more people get to know about the project and the advantages it offers them.
