New S&P Index Combines Crypto and Stocks

The S&P Dow Jones Indices has unveiled a new benchmark: the S&P Digital Markets 50, designed to track a blend of cryptocurrencies and crypto-related stocks.

VVictor•Oct 7, 2025
New S&P Index Combines Crypto and Stocks

The index combines 15 digital assets with 35 public equities connected to the crypto ecosystem. This move signals that traditional financial institutions are increasingly embracing digital assets while providing investors with a structured and transparent way to gain exposure to the sector.

By establishing clear rules and governance, S&P aims to make crypto investing more accessible and reliable.

Balanced Exposure Across Assets

One of the key features of the S&P Digital Markets 50 is its diversification rules. No single asset can make up more than 5% of the index, limiting concentration risk. For equity constituents, companies must have at least $100 million in market capitalization, while crypto tokens need a $300 million market cap.

This structure ensures that the index reflects market-relevant assets rather than being dominated by a few high-profile tokens or stocks. For example, Bitcoin and Ethereum, which currently dominate the crypto market, will each account for less than 5% of the index. This approach balances the potential growth of individual assets with the stability of a diversified portfolio.

The index will also follow the same quarterly rebalancing and governance processes as other S&P benchmarks. This means that as the crypto market evolves, the index will adapt, ensuring that it continues to represent the sector fairly and transparently.

More About S&P Digital Markets 50

The likely 15 cryptocurrencies to make up the S&P Digital Markets 50 index include Bitcoin ($BTC), Ethereum ($ETH), Binance Coin ($BNB), Solana ($SOL), XRP, Cardano ($ADA), Dogecoin ($DOGE), TRON ($TRX), Chainlink ($LINK), Avalanche ($AVAX), Polygon ($MATIC), Polkadot ($DOT), Hedera ($HBAR), Sui ($SUI), and Stellar ($XLM).

These assets are considered top contenders due to their large market capitalizations and established presence in the industry. Together, they represent a balanced mix of layer-1 blockchains, smart contract networks, and utility tokens, offering a broad snapshot of the crypto market’s leaders.
