Russia's Moscow Exchange has launched new cryptocurrency indices for major altcoins including XRP, SOL, TRX, and BNB, alongside existing Bitcoin and Ethereum indices. These indices update prices every 15 seconds using weighted data from Binance, Bybit, OKX, and Bitget to reduce price manipulation risks.
