The post S&P Adds WhiteBIT’s Native Coin to Five Key Cryptocurrency Indices appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

WhiteBIT’s native coin (WBT) has been officially included in the S&P Cryptocurrency Broad Digital Market (BDM) Index, marking a significant milestone for both  WhiteBIT and the broader fintech landscape of Central and Eastern Europe.

The S&P BDM Index — curated by S&P Dow Jones Indices — tracks the performance of leading digital assets that meet strict institutional criteria, including liquidity, market capitalization, governance, transparency, and risk controls. The addition of WhiteBIT coin reinforces the platform’s growing role in the global crypto economy and highlights the industry’s shift toward regulated, infrastructure-level players.

Beyond the inclusion in the Broad Digital Market Index, WhiteBIT’s coin (WBT) has also been added to four additional S&P Dow Jones digital-asset indices, underscoring its emergence as a mature, institutionally relevant asset.

WBT now appears within several key benchmark families:

  • S&P Cryptocurrency Broad Digital Asset (BDA) Index 
  • S&PCryptocurrency Financials Index 
  • S&P Cryptocurrency LargeCap Ex-MegaCap Index 
  • S&P Cryptocurrency LargeCap Index 

These classifications require a multi-quarter record of liquidity stability, transparent price formation, and consistent market-cap behavior.

As the industry matures, index providers are expanding coverage beyond protocol-layer tokens, increasingly acknowledging the systemic role of exchanges and financial-infrastructure platforms. WhiteBIT’s coin presence in the BDM Index positions the company within the global map of institutional-grade digital-asset providers.

WhiteBIT Perspective

This expanded representation marks an important shift for WBT: from a utility token into a component integrated into global benchmark structures used by investment firms, ETF/ETN designers, and quantitative research platforms. Its presence in multiple institutional models means that WBT is now incorporated into the analytical frameworks that guide long-term allocation strategies, diversified exposure construction, and risk-adjusted portfolio modelling.

Market Context

The index additions follow a period of stable market performance for WBT, including a new all-time high of $62.96 on November 18, 2025, achieved despite broader market volatility. WBT’s liquidity conditions and price behaviour across recent quarters contributed to meeting S&P’s inclusion criteria.

Being part of S&P indices gives WBT a clear benchmark, making it easier to use in future financial products and long-term investment strategies.

Tether’s Uruguay Bitcoin Mining Plans Could Be Over

The post Tether’s Uruguay Bitcoin Mining Plans Could Be Over appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Tether’s push to expand Bitcoin mining in Uruguay has stalled after the state utility cut power to its local partner.  UTE, the national electricity provider, halted supply in late July over unpaid bills totaling nearly $5 million. The dispute also froze expansion efforts in the country’s Flores and Florida regions. Tether’s LATAM Bitcoin Mining Expansion Plan Hits Major Roadblock The USDT stablecoin operator entered Uruguay in 2023, promising renewable-powered Bitcoin mining. Uruguay’s abundant wind and hydro capacity made it a prime site for sustainable energy projects.  Sponsored Sponsored Tether partnered with a licensed operator, Microfin, to build facilities and secure long-term electricity deals. However, tension grew as costs and guarantees mounted. UTE required large deposits to secure the energy contracts, while Microfin sought tariff adjustments.  Negotiations led to a memorandum of understanding in June, but arrears remained unresolved. The failure to settle debts triggered the shutdown. Crypto Twitter Criticizing Tether’s Uruguay Backtrack. Source: X Tether had announced broader plans to control about 1% of the global Bitcoin network. The firm pledged hundreds of millions of dollars in South American mining projects, including sites in Paraguay.  The Uruguayan expansion was meant to anchor those ambitions. The company has emphasized that USDT reserves remain separate from its operational ventures. Mining revenue and energy assets are intended to diversify Tether’s business beyond stablecoin issuance.  Earlier this year, it also acquired a stake in Latin American agribusiness to link stablecoin use to commodity trade. The setback in Uruguay raises questions about the viability of energy-intensive mining in high-cost markets. While Paraguay and Texas have attracted miners with cheaper electricity, Uruguay’s grid is stricter on guarantees.  For now, Tether’s talks with UTE continue, but the timeline for restarting operations is unclear. Overall, this highlights the risks in tying stablecoin companies to volatile mining ventures. Tether…
