According to Hayter, CryptoCompare is responsible for managing the data exchange that is integrating BitMEX&#8217;s cryptocurrency data into the terminal. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cCryptoCompare contributions conduit can deliver [BitMEX\u2019s data] to Refinitiv\/Eikon seamlessly, thanks to our longstanding partnership \u2014 sparing BitMEX a costly, time-consuming integration and onboarding process with Refinitiv,\u201d Hayter said in a press release. <\/p>\n<p>BitMEX is hopeful that the partnership can help bring in new institutional investors and help gain some traction from the traditional financial industry. <\/p>\n<p>BitMEX utilizes an API that allows tech-savvy traders to stream live trading feeds. In April, BitMEX traded an average daily volume of $1.14 billion. The data BitMEX provides to the terminal is the same as that which runs through the API.. But it will also allow new institutional traders to ease their way into the cryptocurrency market through traditional platforms they currently utilize.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen it comes to trading, good decision-making depends on access to solid data insights,\u201d BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes said, per the release. \u201cWe are pleased to deliver a new wealth of data on cryptocurrency futures for institutional investors that can contribute to their overall confidence throughout their decision-making process.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bloomberg is also compiling data for its cryptocurrency investors using the Huobi Price Index, which tracks the performance of the top-10 cryptocurrencies traded on Huobi Pro. However, according to Hayter, Reuters has a much more \u201cdefinitive offering.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The exchange and derivative trading platform now provides cryptocurrency data to Refinitiv\u2019s Eikon Terminal, a spin-off from the main rival of Bloomberg&#8217;s financial data terminals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3453,"featured_media":19975,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[1536,411,402],"class_list":{"0":"post-19974","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-markets","8":"tag-bitmex","9":"tag-bloomberg","10":"tag-data"},"author_data":{"id":3453,"name":"Ipecdunmanintern","nicename":"ipecdunmanintern","avatar_url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=robohash&r=g"},"featured_image_url":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/bitmex-to-provide-cryptocurrency-data-via-terminal.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19974","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3453"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19974"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19974\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19975"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19974"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19974"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19974"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
