These include decentralized exchanges like Bluefin on Sway, D8X exchange on Arbitrum and Polygon ZKEVM, Pingu exchange on Arbitrum, and Vela exchange on Arbitrum and Base. Additionally, Horizon Protocol, a derivatives trading and liquidity protocol, is also leveraging the GM30 feed to provide users with exposure to the broader cryptocurrency market. The collaboration between GMCI and the Pyth network represents a significant milestone

in the evolution of the cryptocurrency market. By combining GMCIS expertise in creating unique indices with Pyth's cutting-edge Oracle technology, this integration provides developers and users with a reliable and accurate source of market data. As more DeFi protocols and applications adopt the GM30 feed, we can expect to see increased transparency, efficiency, and innovation in the cryptocurrency space. Final thoughts. The launch of the GMCI30 index on the Pyth network is just the beginning. As the cryptocurrency market continues to mature and evolve, the demand for sophisticated financial products and services will only grow. With the foundation laid by this integration, developers and entrepreneurs have a
