Finst collaborates with CoinDesk Indices

With this collaboration, European investors can now gain exposure to the CoinDesk 20 Index using Finst Crypto Bundles and broadly invest in the crypto market in one click.

Finst, one of the largest crypto service providers in The Netherlands and known for its revolutionary Crypto Bundles, today announced a collaboration with CoinDesk Indices, a leading provider of digital assets indices since 2014, to offer the CoinDesk 20 Index on its platform. The CoinDesk 20, a broad-based digital asset benchmark, is now available to both retail and institutional investors using the Finst Bundles solution.

Launched in January 2024, the CoinDesk 20 addresses the growing demand for diversified exposure to the crypto market. For those searching beyond bitcoin, the CoinDesk 20 is a broad-based index that tracks the performance of top digital assets, representing approximately 90% of the global crypto market capitalization*. Designed for scalability, the CoinDesk 20 has already been adopted by leading market-making firms and global market participants, generating $7 billion in perpetual futures volume over the past eight months.

Investors looking for a passive solution in the crypto market can now make use of the CoinDesk 20 Bundle on the Finst platform without any minimum amount and with very low fees. The CoinDesk 20 Bundle also features an automatic rebalancing every quarter, enabling investors to stay in line with the performance of the overall market without taking any action.

"We believe that passive investing in cryptocurrencies will play a crucial role in the future of digital assets. Currently, there are only limited alternatives for investors wanting to diversify their crypto investments effortlessly, and we’re proud to bring this unique solution in Europe together with CoinDesk Indices." —Julien Vallet, CEO & Co-Founder of Finst

"With the CoinDesk 20 already establishing a strong foothold in institutional liquidity, we are excited that Finst is now making this diversified index accessible to the broader European public. This marks a significant step in expanding the reach of our market-leading indices, bringing greater transparency and opportunity to investors across the region." —Alan Campbell, President of CoinDesk Indices
