Hedera Joins BTC and ETH as CME Launches HBAR Pricing Index

  • Analysts say standardized Hedera price data is critical for institutional adoption, enabling benchmarks, indices, and structured products.
  • Despite the infrastructure milestone, HBAR remains under selling pressure, correcting 4% amid market-wide correction.

The CME Group has made an official announcement that on December 29, it will be adding real-time price feeds for Hedera’s HBAR token. This is a major announcement coming from the world’s largest derivatives exchange. CME provides core market data infrastructure used by institutional investors, funds, and clearing members across regulated financial markets.

CME Group To Offer Hedera (HBAR) Price Feeds

Following the CME Group announcement, market observers said that the availability of real-time price data for HBAR will lead to greater institutional participation. It also allows the creation of benchmarks, indices, and structured products. Without standardized reference data, assets cannot be part of institutional trading, risk management, or investment frameworks. Commenting on this development, popular investor Mark Chadwick (@markchadwickx) noted via X:

However, note that the introduction of HBAR into CME’s data ecosystem does not signal the immediate launch of derivatives or near-term price action. This is the start of a preparatory phase that allows digital assets to become measurable, open to benchmarking, and compatible with institutional models.

Over the longer term, observers say the development could support liquidity and broader adoption for HBAR. It also follows the typical progression of institutional markets from data infrastructure to benchmarks, financial products, and eventually increased trading activity.

The CME Group also supports the trading of futures derivatives products for digital assets like XRP and Solana. It will be interesting to see if HBAR can make the cut. In a Hedera thread on Reddit, one user, Calms Storms, said: “It’s just a pricing feed. Morgan Stanley has one too. Reality is you want your coin listed on the CME. Not likely. Only 4 crypto coins have made the cut”.

HBAR Price Continues to Face Selling Pressure

Despite the CME Group development, the HBAR price continues to face selling pressure while being in the grip of bears. As of press time, the Hedera token is trading 4.3% down at $0.1139. Moreover, the surge in the daily trading volume shows that the selling pressure is intense.

Despite this, the Hedera Foundation has continued to make fresh partnerships. Last week, on Dec. 12, it integrated with Ownera, a distribution network used by financial institutions, to simplify access to tokenized real-world assets on Hedera for banks, broker-dealers, and asset managers, as reported by CNF.

Solana Treasury Stocks: Why Are These Companies Buying Up SOL?

The post Solana Treasury Stocks: Why Are These Companies Buying Up SOL? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In 2020, everyone watched Strategy (called Microstrategy back then) scoop up Bitcoin and turn corporate crypto treasuries into a mainstream story. Now, a new wave is forming. And it’s centered on Solana. Dozens of companies are holding SOL as a bet on price. Except they’re not just holding. They’re building what’s being called Solana treasuries or Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs). These aren’t passive vaults. They’re active strategies that stake, earn yield, and tie into the fast-growing Solana ecosystem. Forward Industries, a Nasdaq-listed firm, recently bought more than 6.8 million SOL, making it the world’s largest Solana treasury company. Others like Helius Medical, Upexi, and DeFi Development are following a similar playbook, turning SOL into a centerpiece of their balance sheets. The trend is clear: Solana treasury stocks are emerging as a new class of crypto-exposed equities. And for investors, the question isn’t just who’s buying but why this strategy is spreading so fast. Key highlights: Solana treasuries (DATs) are corporate reserves of SOL designed to earn yield through staking and DeFi. Companies like Forward Industries, Helius Medical, Upexi, and DeFi Development Corp now hold millions of SOL. Public firms collectively own 17.1M SOL (≈$4B), which makes Solana one of the most adopted treasuries. Unlike Bitcoin treasuries, Solana holdings generate 6–8% annual rewards. It makes reserves into productive assets Solana treasury stocks are emerging as a new way for investors to gain indirect exposure to SOL. Risks remain: volatility, regulation, and concentrated holdings. But corporate adoption is growing fast. What is a Solana treasury (DAT)? A Solana treasury, sometimes called a Digital Asset Treasury (DAT), is when a company holds SOL as part of its balance sheet.
