What happened?

The CoinDesk 20 Index rose 0.5% to 1,682.86 in the latest daily update, with Aave leading gains at 5.9%. Fifteen of the index’s 20 assets traded higher, while XLM and ADA were among the laggards.

Why it matters

The CoinDesk 20 Index moved higher in its latest daily market update, trading at 1,682.86, up 0.5% since 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday. Aave was the strongest performer in the index, gaining 5.9%, while Internet Computer also advanced, rising 2%.

The CoinDesk 20 Index moved higher in its latest daily market update, trading at 1,682.86, up 0.5% since 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday. Aave was the strongest performer in the index, gaining 5.9%, while Internet Computer also advanced, rising 2%.

The update matters because the CoinDesk 20 is designed as a broad-based measure of major crypto assets and is traded across multiple platforms in several global regions. A move higher across most constituents can give readers a snapshot of short-term market breadth, rather than focusing on a single token’s price action.

According to CoinDesk Indices, 15 of the 20 assets in the index were trading higher at the time of the update. That broad participation helped lift the benchmark even as several assets moved lower.

On the weaker side, Stellar fell 1.4% and Cardano declined 1.2%, making them the day’s listed laggards. The mixed performance shows that the index’s overall gain was not uniform across the crypto market.

The update was published by CoinDesk Indices on June 24, 2026, as part of its daily performance coverage of leaders and laggards in the CoinDesk 20 Index.
