Russia's Moscow Exchange (MOEX) will begin publishing cryptocurrency indexes for four major altcoins starting May 13, 2026. The new benchmarks will track Solana, XRP, TRON, and BNB, marking the first expansion of the country's leading securities exchange beyond its existing Bitcoin and Ethereum indexes. The development was first reported by Russian crypto outlet bits.media and subsequently confirmed by Wu Blockchain.
This represents the second phase of MOEX's broader strategy to build out its digital asset infrastructure. The exchange had previously limited its regulated crypto benchmark suite to Bitcoin and Ethereum, making this expansion into altcoins a significant milestone for Russia's institutional crypto adoption. The move positions MOEX as one of the few major traditional exchanges globally to offer regulated tracking of these specific digital assets.
The inclusion of these four altcoins suggests growing institutional recognition of their market significance and trading volumes. By creating official indexes for Solana, XRP, TRON, and BNB, MOEX is providing regulated benchmarks that could facilitate institutional investment and trading in these cryptocurrencies within Russia's financial system. This development may encourage other traditional exchanges to expand their crypto offerings beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Market participants will be watching to see which additional altcoins MOEX includes in future phases of its digital asset expansion, as the exchange has indicated this is part of a longer-term infrastructure buildout.
