Nasdaq CME Crypto™ Index Performance (Weekly):

 

The NCI rose 3.9% for the week ending April 26, led by BTC (+4.4%) and ETH (+3.0%), extending gains for a third consecutive week. The advance was supported by $1.4B in digital asset product inflows, the strongest since January, and an 8-day spot BTC ETF inflow streak totaling $2B. Legislative urgency intensified as a key US Senator warned the CLARITY Act must pass by end of May or risk being shelved, while a 120+ firm coalition urged the Senate to advance the bill. 

 

CIO’s view:

 

Three consecutive weeks of inflows and advancing CLARITY Act momentum are constructive, but the combination of an unresolved geopolitical backdrop and a narrow legislative window suggests caution against extrapolating the current trend. BTC’s push above $78,000 led the NCI to climb to 3,740, its highest level since early February. Our current range is 3,200–4,000 for the NCI and $70,000-$80,000 for BTC.

 

Key Developments 

Western Union announced a Solana-based stablecoin (USDPT), aiming to bring crypto-powered settlements to 360,000+ locations globally.

Chainlink listed oracle services on AWS Marketplace, connecting institutional-grade blockchain infrastructure into mainstream enterprise procurement.

Coinbase opened stablecoin (USDC) borrwiong for UK users using bitcoin and ether as collateral on its Base network.
