Suspension of Bitstamp as a Constituent Exchange for CF Digital Asset Index Family - Single Asset Series indices
From August 20th, 2024, the Administrator will suspend Bitstamp as a CF Constituent Exchange for the indices below:

Rationale
The Administrator monitors Constituent Exchange trading volumes on an ongoing basis against the CF Constituent Exchanges Criteria, in order to assess each venue's continuing eligibility to remain a Constituent Exchange. The Administrator has concluded that Bitstamp no longer meets the minimum spot trading volume requirements on a consistent basis. Accordingly, Bitstamp will be suspended as a Constituent Exchange for the benchmarks listed above. This suspension is indefinite.
Implementation Date
Bitstamp will be suspended as a Constituent Exchange from the benchmarks listed above at approximately 11:00 London Time, on August 20th, 2024. The suspension process has been overseen by the CF Cryptocurrency Index Family Oversight Function.
