Suspension of Bitstamp and Gemini as Constituent Exchanges for CF Artificial Superintelligence Alliance-Dollar, and CF Injective-Dollar indices
The Administrator announces the suspension of Bitstamp and Gemini as CF Constituent Exchanges for the following indices within the CF Digital Asset Index Family – Single Asset Series, effective November 3rd, 2025:
- CF Artificial Superintelligence Alliance-Dollar Spot Rate (FETUSD_RTI) - Bitstamp suspended
- CF Injective-Dollar Spot Rate (INJUSD_RTI) - Gemini Suspended
Rationale
The Administrator has proposed the launch of the CF Artificial Superintelligence Alliance-Dollar US Settlement Price, and CF Injective-Dollar US Settlement Price. As per the CF Constituent Exchanges Criteria, a trading venue is eligible as a Constituent Exchange in any of the CF Cryptocurrency Index Family indices, if the average daily volume contribution during the observation window for the Relevant Pair is greater than 3% of the other Constituent Exchanges in combination for 45 consecutive days.
Following a review of executed trades, the Administrator determined that neither Bitstamp nor Gemini met the average daily volume criteria for the purpose of launching the proposed US Settlement Prices. As a result, Bitstamp and Gemini will be suspended as CF Constituent Exchanges for the indices listed above. These suspensions are indefinite.
Implementation Date
The suspensions will take effect at approximately 11:00 a.m. London Time, on November 3rd, 2025. The process has been conducted under the supervision of the CF Cryptocurrency Index Family Oversight Function.
