Block Scholes has announced a major milestone in the institutional adoption of digital asset derivatives markets, by becoming the first and sole crypto options data contributor on Bloomberg. For global institutions, this marks a turning point in the adoption of cryptocurrency derivatives data, with the same standards applied across traditional investment markets.
With digital assets continuing to mature as an asset class, institutions are demanding high-quality cryptocurrency derivatives data: Bloomberg Terminal users can now access Block Scholes’ institutional-grade crypto options datasets within analytics on the Bloomberg Terminal as well as download the data for enterprise workflows.
Block Scholes’ products are built by experienced quants and technologists from leading financial institutions with years of expertise in developing institutional-grade products for financial markets. Block Scholes’ regulatory status in research with the UK Financial Conduct Authority and the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission offers further reassurance and credibility to institutional participants.
Eamonn Gashier, Founder & CEO of Block Scholes said: “This builds an important bridge between the crypto markets and institutional finance: traditional finance players have long been held back from trading on decentralized exchanges due to a lack of quality data. By making our data available via the trusted Bloomberg Platform, we hope to drive engagement from traditional finance players in the crypto markets, empowering them with the same trusted data that powers the great majority of options trading in decentralized exchanges, through a familiar channel.
Current Bloomberg coverage focuses on derived datasets, including implied volatility surfaces and forward curves for Bitcoin and Ether, accessible via the Bloomberg Terminal and Enterprise APIs. These are calibrated across standard delta pillars and tenors using the most liquid options markets.
Beyond this initial integration, Block Scholes maintains a significantly broader proprietary dataset, covering implied volatility and derivatives metrics across a wide range of altcoins. This expanded coverage is currently available directly to institutional clients through Block Scholes, providing access to deeper analytics and a wider asset universe beyond the initial integration scope.
