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.
How Hyperliquid’s ETF foundation opened the token’s path into an index with Bitcoin and $XRP
Hyperliquid’s inclusion in the Nasdaq CME index was driven by its strict compliance with the exchange’s requirements for market capitalization, liquidity, and secure custody standards. This step is supported by developed infrastructure in the U.S. market.
Statistics from the SoSoValue platform as of September 1 show that the net asset value of spot $HYPE ETFs reached $461.54 million, equivalent to 2.45% of the coin’s market capitalization. By issuer, BlackRock’s IBYH fund leads with $236.10 million in net assets, followed by Fidelity’s FHYP with $138.59 million and 21Shares’ THYP with $86.85 million.
Combined net inflows into these spot funds reached $344.31 million, with a daily trading volume of $14.72 million, while the $HYPE token itself was priced at $83.62 ahead of the rebalancing.
The fact that Hyperliquid has joined the Nasdaq CME index alongside Bitcoin, $XRP, and other industry leaders changes the asset’s distribution — buying the diversified Hashdex fund now automatically includes exposure to $HYPE.
