Hyperliquid Joins Bitcoin, XRP and Others in Nasdaq CME Crypto Index

The institutional landscape of the cryptocurrency market has reached an important milestone — Hyperliquid ($HYPE) has officially joined the regulated Nasdaq CME Crypto Index alongside Bitcoin, $XRP, and other leading digital assets.

The changes to the benchmark's composition took effect today following a scheduled quarterly rebalancing, as confirmed by an official supplement to the prospectus of the Hashdex Nasdaq CME Crypto Index ETF (NCIQ) filed with the SEC.

The updated documentation revealed the exact weights of nine assets within the index. Bitcoin (74.36%) and Ethereum (11.88%) retain the largest shares. At the same time, $HYPE debuted with a 3.36% weighting, coming close to Solana (3.79%) and surpassing all other participants.

Against this backdrop, $XRP firmly retained its status as the third-largest asset in the index with a 5.21% share — its slight decline occurred within the framework of standard market volatility, confirming the coin's resilient position in the face of a new strong competitor.

The remaining less than 1.5% of the fund is divided among Cardano, Chainlink, Stellar, and Bitcoin Cash.
