US CRYPTO 100 ® Intelligent Crypto Index
CRYPTO 100 ® Index for the US Market
Why CRYPTO 100 ® Index is not just another market cap index - Our unique VALT Score ® assesses each cryptocurrencies quality fundamentals
The VALT Score is a quality weighted cryptocurrency fundamentals scorecard developed by CRYPTO 100 ® Index. It aims to evaluate the fundamental strength and reliability of cryptocurrencies, considering aspects such as the inherent Volatility, Adoption, Liquidity and Tokenomics (VALT) of coins.
This means the CRYPTO 100 ® Index fundamentally operates as a market cap weighted index, with a quality filter applied: larger assets with poor fundamentals are scaled down, while smaller assets with strong fundamentals, as determined through tokenomics analysis, can rank higher than their raw market cap might suggest.
From 1 Jan 2026 to June 2026, the VALT10, VALT10V, VALT10A, VALT10L and VALT10VC Indexes have outperformed Bitcoin and most crypto market cap indexes.
The CRYPTO 100 ® Index from Crypto Owl is designed and built for everyone in the United States.
• Beginners & the general public – A landing point to learn about crypto without getting overwhelmed by thousands of coins or meme tokens
• Investors – A neutral benchmark to track crypto market performance and compare investment products
• Crypto platforms & exchanges – A standardized view of the crypto market for their apps and products
• ETF issuers – A reference benchmark when stating products are “based on CRYPTO 100 ®”
• Robo-advisers & digital wealth managers – A reliable benchmark for automated investment recommendations
• AI agents – Structured crypto market data for AI-driven decisions
• Fund managers & financial advisers – A disciplined, fundamentals led benchmark for portfolio construction
The index serves as a neutral, independent benchmark (not a fund or trading product) that works alongside Crypto Owl’s educational platform, using the proprietary VALT Score framework assessing volatility, adoption, liquidity, and tokenomics to make it more selective than market cap only indexes.
Crypto is a global market with no borders, and CRYPTO 100 ® helps people compare performance, track, and understand leading digital assets in a clear, independent way.
A global crypto index for a global market
Crypto does not stop at country lines. Markets move 24/7, projects launch internationally, and users from the US, UK, Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa and beyond all participate in the same ecosystem.
CRYPTO 100 ® is designed to reflect that reality by providing a quality weighted crypto benchmark index that can be used anywhere in the world. It is more sophisticated than pure market capitalization indexes and uses a quality VALT Score to assess each cryptocurrencies Volatility, Adoption, Liquidity and Tokenomics before it’s included in the CRYPTO 100.
For US users, that means a practical way to explore the crypto market without relying on fragmented opinions, hype, or exchange specific rankings. Whether you are an active trader, a long term investor, or simply researching the sector, CRYPTO 100 ® offers a structured view of the market.
Why US users choose CRYPTO 100 ®
The US is one of the most important crypto markets in the world, with a large base of investors, founders, developers, and institutions. CRYPTO 100 ® is relevant to this audience because it is:

CRYPTO 100 ® is not limited by geography. If you are in the United States, you can use it just as easily as anyone else around the world.
Built for borderless crypto
Digital assets were created to move beyond traditional boundaries, and that same principle applies to CRYPTO 100 ®. The index is intended to support a worldwide audience by providing a consistent way to view and compare crypto assets across markets.
That makes CRYPTO 100 ® especially valuable for US users who want a broader perspective on the industry. Instead of looking at crypto through a single country lens, you can use a global framework that reflects how the crypto market actually behaves.

CRYPTO 100 ® is not only for experienced investors. It is also designed for crypto beginners who want to learn and understand the market in a simpler, more structured way.
If you are new to crypto, CRYPTO 100 ® can help you:
- Learn how the market is organized.

- Understand the bigger picture before making decisions.
This makes CRYPTO 100 ® useful for people who are just getting started, as well as those who already know the market well.
US crypto indexes
The US market already has several well known crypto indexes and benchmarks. Examples include the Bitwise 10 Crypto Index Fund, which tracks a basket of the largest crypto assets, the Nasdaq Crypto Index, now known as the Nasdaq CME Crypto Index and the S&P Cryptocurrency Indices, including the S&P Bitcoin Index, S&P Ethereum Index, and S&P Crypto Mega Cap Index.
These products show how important crypto indexing has become in the US financial market. They are useful reference points for investors who want exposure, benchmarking, or a more structured way to follow digital assets.
CRYPTO 100 ® sits alongside that idea, but with a different purpose. It is designed to be global, independent, and easy to understand, so it can serve both advanced users and beginners. It is not limited to one institution, one exchange, or one country.
Why CRYPTO 100 ® Index is different
Other indexes can be highly useful, especially for institutional products or fund tracking. But many users still want a simpler way to understand the market as a whole.
CRYPTO 100 ® is designed to fill that gap by offering:
- A clear and accessible way to explore leading crypto assets.
- A global view of the market rather than a US only or exchange only view.
- A beginner friendly experience that helps people learn as they go.
- An independent quality weighted index not just based on market capitalization that supports research, comparison, discovery and aims to outperform Bitcoin and other crypto indexes.
Crypto is a global asset class, and the best tools should reflect that. CRYPTO 100 ® is built with that principle in mind.
