WhiteBIT’s Native Coin WBT Added to Five S&P Cryptocurrency Indices

WhiteBIT’s coin (WBT) has been officially included in the S&P Cryptocurrency Broad Digital Market (BDM) Index, marking a significant milestone for both WhiteBIT and the broader fintech landscape of Central and Eastern Europe.

The S&P BDM Index — curated by S&P Dow Jones Indices — tracks the performance of leading digital assets that meet strict institutional criteria, including liquidity, market capitalization, governance, transparency, and risk controls. The addition of WhiteBIT coin reinforces the platform’s growing role in the global crypto economy and highlights the industry’s shift toward regulated, infrastructure-level players.

Beyond the inclusion in the Broad Digital Market Index, WhiteBIT’s native coin, WBT, has also been added to four additional S&P Dow Jones digital-asset indices, underscoring its emergence as a mature, institutionally relevant asset.

WBT now appears within several key benchmark families:

  • S&P Cryptocurrency Broad Digital Asset (BDA) Index
  • S&PCryptocurrency Financials Index
  • S&P Cryptocurrency LargeCap Ex-MegaCap Index
  • S&P Cryptocurrency LargeCap Index

These classifications require a multi-quarter record of liquidity stability, transparent price formation, and consistent market-cap behavior.

As the industry matures, index providers are expanding coverage beyond protocol-layer tokens, increasingly acknowledging the systemic role of exchanges and financial-infrastructure platforms. WhiteBIT’s coin presence in the BDM Index positions the company within the global map of institutional-grade digital-asset providers.

“Being recognized by S&P DJI is more than an index inclusion — it signals that crypto infrastructure from our region has reached global institutional standards,” said Volodymyr Nosov, CEO of WhiteBIT “This is a turning point not only for our company but also for the evolution of compliant crypto services worldwide.”

This expanded representation marks an important shift for WBT: from a utility token into a component integrated into global benchmark structures used by investment firms, ETF/ETN designers, and quantitative research platforms. Its presence in multiple institutional models means that WBT is now incorporated into the analytical frameworks that guide long-term allocation strategies, diversified exposure construction, and risk-adjusted portfolio modelling.

Market Performance: Resilient Growth and a New All-Time High

WBT’s inclusion comes after a period of stability and upward movement, reaching a new all-time high of $62.96 on November 18, 2025, despite broader market declines and changes external analyses noted WBT’s resilience. These factors contributed to meeting S&P’s criteria for classification.

Being part of S&P indices gives WBT a clear benchmark, making it easier to use in future financial products and long-term investment strategies.

Cashing In On University Patents Means Giving Up On Our Innovation Future

The post Cashing In On University Patents Means Giving Up On Our Innovation Future appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. “It’s a raid on American innovation that would deliver pennies to the Treasury while kneecapping the very engine of our economic and medical progress,” writes Pipes. Getty Images Washington is addicted to taxing success. Now, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is floating a plan to skim half the patent earnings from inventions developed at universities with federal funding. It’s being sold as a way to shore up programs like Social Security. In reality, it’s a raid on American innovation that would deliver pennies to the Treasury while kneecapping the very engine of our economic and medical progress. Yes, taxpayer dollars support early-stage research. But the real payoff comes later—in the jobs created, cures discovered, and industries launched when universities and private industry turn those discoveries into real products. By comparison, the sums at stake in patent licensing are trivial. Universities collectively earn only about $3.6 billion annually in patent income—less than the federal government spends on Social Security in a single day. Even confiscating half would barely register against a $6 trillion federal budget. And yet the damage from such a policy would be anything but trivial. The true return on taxpayer investment isn’t in licensing checks sent to Washington, but in the downstream economic activity that federally supported research unleashes. Thanks to the bipartisan Bayh-Dole Act of 1980, universities and private industry have powerful incentives to translate early-stage discoveries into real-world products. Before Bayh-Dole, the government hoarded patents from federally funded research, and fewer than 5% were ever licensed. Once universities could own and license their own inventions, innovation exploded. The result has been one of the best returns on investment in government history. Since 1996, university research has added nearly $2 trillion to U.S. industrial output, supported 6.5 million jobs, and launched more than 19,000 startups. Those companies pay…
