Moscow Exchange will expand its crypto index offerings by adding four new indexes for Solana (SOL), XRP, Tron (TRX), and Binance Coin (BNB) starting May 13. These indexes will update every 15 seconds during trading and weekend sessions, improving real-time tracking for professional investors. Binance will provide half of the pricing data, with Bybit, OKX, and Bitget supplying the rest.

The exchange also plans to eventually offer direct cryptocurrency trading by early 2027.
