(Originally posted on : Crypto News – iGaming.org )
MarketVector introduces the MEMECOIN index, offering a structured approach to navigating the volatile meme coin market. With a monthly review process and capped individual coin weightings, the index aims to provide insights into this emerging sector while maintaining diversification.
The MEMECOIN index caters to both institutional and retail investors seeking exposure to meme coins. By capping individual coin weightings at 30%, the index ensures that no single coin unduly influences its performance, offering a balanced perspective on the market’s dynamics.
Empowering Institutional and Retail Investors
For institutional investors, the MEMECOIN index serves as a strategic tool for entering the unpredictable meme coin space. By providing a consolidated view of influential assets, the index mitigates risks associated with direct exposure to individual coins. Similarly, retail investors can leverage the index to gauge the relative performance and market share of their favorite meme coins.
Matthew Sigel, VanEck’s Head of Digital Assets Research, acknowledges the index’s potential to capture the zeitgeist of the crypto space, dubbing memes as the new alpha. He said, “If memes are the new alpha, this new index from MarketVector may capture the zeitgeist of the crypto space in a way no other benchmark can. We look forward to seeing what others will build on top of it.”
