Yesterday, CF Benchmarks were honored to attend the ringing of the closing bell at Nasdaq, as we celebrated Tuesday's launch of the Spot Ether ETPs in the US. Our Sales & Business Development Director, Americas, Peter S. commented, “I'm thrilled to announce that CF Benchmarks has been integral to this journey as the index provider for four pioneering #ETPs. A massive shoutout to my incredible colleagues for their dedication and hard work over the years to make this moment possible.” Yesterday’s closing bell ceremony at Nasdaq, where we joined BlackRock, was a memorable occasion. Garrett Grinnell, CIMA®, CDAA™, CBP from Kraken Digital Asset Exchange also attended, symbolizing the unified strength of Kraken Institutional and CF Benchmarks.

Before I joined Kraken, I knew it was more than just a company. Kraken is a mission-driven culture of talented, global employees (aka “Krakenites”) working together to build the bridge from a broken legacy tradfi system to a crypto future. This mission guides everything Kraken does, from our product roadmap to our talent strategy. And as someone who believes work should be a vehicle for personal growth and fulfillment, I was drawn to Kraken's dedication to supporting our Krakenite’s development through globally remote collaboration, async work, and immersive learning opportunities. This week marks a major milestone with Kraken's 13th birthday. It’s a moment where we get to reflect on our unwavering commitment to our mission and everything that makes Kraken an amazing place to work. In fact, we were just named the #14 Most Loved Workplace in the world! Kraken could be the perfect place to accelerate your crypto career while making a real, lasting impact. If you're a curious self-starter who shares Kraken's crypto conviction and desire to build a more inclusive financial system, I encourage you to read our new blog! #LifeAtKraken #futureofwork #crypto
