Hashdex Adds Hyperliquid to Nasdaq Crypto Index ETF

Hashdex has expanded its Nasdaq CME Crypto Index ETF by adding Hyperliquid's HYPE token. This move highlights growing institutional interest in crypto networks that support active financial markets. The HYPE token now joins Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, XRP, Stellar, Cardano, Chainlink, and Bitcoin Cash within the diversified fund. Investors can gain exposure to Hyperliquid through this rules-based investment product without buying HYPE directly.

The inclusion of HYPE was based on its meeting of the Nasdaq CME Crypto Index's eligibility requirements, which assess factors such as market capitalization, liquidity, custody support, and regulatory considerations. The index also applies SEC generic listing standards for crypto asset exchange-traded products.

NCIQ began in February 2025 with only two cryptocurrencies but has since expanded its holdings as the digital asset market developed. The addition of HYPE shows how index providers increasingly recognize established blockchain ecosystems.
