Our cryptocurrency pricing and reference data is provided by Lukka, Inc. via its Lukka Prime and Lukka Reference Data products.

What pricing is used as end-of-day for index calculation?

S&P Dow Jones Indices uses the Lukka Prime Fair Market Value end-of-day price taken at 4:00 p.m. EST for cryptocurrency index calculation. Other end-of-day index levels will be added for additional markets and regions as demand warrants. Lukka’s methodology is the first of its kind for designed specifically for determining the fair value pricing of liquid cryptocurrency assets.

What is Fair Market Value (FMV) Pricing?

The "Lukka Prime" Pricing & Valuation Methodology offers FMV pricing, an actual executed exchange price for liquid crypto assets via a multi-stage process. First, exchanges are pre-screened by Lukka according to its determined criteria such as oversight, efficiency, data transparency, and data integrity. Then, on a real time basis, Lukka designates a representative primary market from the pre-screened exchanges by using a ranking approach. The ranking considers several exchange characteristics—including jurisdiction, oversight and intra-day trading liquidity, and volume—to determine the best available executable price at a point in time for each trading pair of cryptocurrencies (each cryptocurrency can be traded against other currencies or cryptocurrencies, e.g. BTC/USD, BTC/ETH). An executed exchange price is used for each covered asset and represents FMV at a specific time. Read more about FMV here.
