Investors can use the reference rates and indices, which are not tradeable items, to:\u201cprice sector-specific portfolios, develop structured products \u2026 And manage price risk around various Metaverse-based projects,\u201d said Giovanni Vicioso, CME Group\u2019s head of cryptocurrency products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A minimum of two cryptocurrency exchanges, such as Bitstamp, Coinbase, Kraken, itBit, and LMAX Digital<\/a>, shall provide pricing information for the calculation of the reference rates and real-time indexes for AXS, CHZ, and MANA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each real-time index will be published every second of every day, and the reference rates for the assets will be priced in US dollars and published daily at 4 p.m. London time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to CoinMarketCap, Chiliz, the biggest of the aforementioned metaverse plays, has a market valuation of $742 million right now. Axie's market capitalization is $686.5 million, while Decentraland is estimated to be at $597.2 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the previous cryptocurrency bull market, scores of projects made the promise of building virtual replicas of the actual world, which caused the popularity of metaverse tokens to soar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
