Russia’s Moscow Exchange (MOEX) will begin publishing four new cryptocurrency indexes — tracking Solana, XRP, TRON, and BNB — starting May 13, 2026, marking the first time the country’s leading securities exchange has extended its regulated crypto benchmark suite beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.
The development, first reported by Russian crypto outlet bits.media and confirmed by Wu Blockchain, represents the second phase of what MOEX has framed as a longer-term buildout of its digital asset infrastructure.

The exchange launched its Bitcoin index (MOEXBTC) in June 2025 and its Ethereum index (MOEXETH) in October 2025. The four new benchmarks — Solana (MOEXSOL), XRP (MOEXXRP), TRON (MOEXTRX), and Binance Coin (MOEXBNB) — follow the same architectural model, with index values updated every 15 seconds during trading hours.
According to the report, the four new indexes will calculate prices using a weighted blend of data from major global exchanges: Binance at 50%, Bybit at 20%, OKX at 15%, and Bitget at 15%. All products will be restricted to qualified professional investors under Bank of Russia regulations and structured as cash-settled instruments, meaning no physical delivery of the underlying cryptocurrency is involved.
Futures contracts tied to each new index are expected to follow once sufficient price history has been established — mirroring the path taken by MOEX’s existing BTC and ETH futures products.
MOEX has stated its intention to grow its total crypto index count to at least 10 assets over time, including Hyperliquid (HYPE). Also, Dogecoin and Cardano have been cited as likely candidates for future additions, suggesting May 13 marks an expansion phase rather than a ceiling.
The broader regulatory environment is also moving in tandem. A digital asset bill currently under review in Russia’s State Duma is expected to be finalized by mid-2026. If passed, the framework could allow limited retail participation in crypto-linked instruments under an annual cap of approximately $4,000 — a significant opening for a market currently accessible only to qualified investors.

The expansion signifies a broader acceptance of cryptocurrencies in Russia's regulated financial markets, moving beyond just Bitcoin and Ethereum.

This development marks a pivotal moment for the nascent sector’s global footprint, especially for Solana, TRON, and XRP. As regulated financial products tied to altcoins — indexes, futures, and eventually options — gain traction across exchanges from Moscow to Chicago, the case for digital assets as a legitimate institutional asset class continues to strengthen.
Each new market that formalizes crypto exposure within its regulated infrastructure adds another layer of structural demand to the ecosystem, a dynamic that could increasingly influence price discovery and liquidity for top-tier altcoins worldwide.
As of this writing, Solana trades at around $147, XRP at $2.11, TRON at $0.26, and BNB at approximately $598, with all four assets set to gain dedicated regulated exposure on one of Eastern Europe’s largest exchanges within the week.
