Russia's Moscow Exchange Launches Regulated Indexes for Top Altcoins

Russia's Moscow Exchange is expanding its crypto offerings by launching regulated indexes for four major altcoins: SOL, XRP, TRX, and BNB. This move follows the introduction of BTC and ETH indexes in June and October 2025, respectively.

The new indexes will be based on pricing data from reputable exchanges such as Binance, Bybit, OKX, and Bitget, with each contributing to the calculation in a weighted manner. The Moscow Exchange's decision to introduce these indexes is seen as a significant development, as it suggests that institutional money is increasingly interested in investing in altcoins.

Meanwhile, Pepeto, a relatively new cryptocurrency, has been gaining traction with its innovative exchange tools and audited contracts. The project has raised over $9 million in presale capital, which indicates strong interest from investors who are willing to take on the risks associated with early-stage cryptocurrencies.
