ICE and Blockstream to Launch Cryptocurrency Data Feed

Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (ICE) and Blockstream, a provider of blockchain technologies and financial cryptography, announced the launch of the Cryptocurrency Data Feed. ICE Data Services’ new feed offers real-time cryptocurrency information and will initially include data from more than 15 cryptocurrency exchange venues globally. The exclusive agreement between ICE Data Services and Blockstream offers coverage of prices and order book data for bitcoin and several other leading cryptocurrencies. The Cryptocurrency Data Feed is a multi-asset and multi-venue data feed capturing the majority of cryptocurrency exchange trading volume for leading cryptocurrencies measured against the U.S. Dollar and other major currency pairs. Blockstream works with cryptocurrency exchanges around the world and consolidates the disparate data sets into a normalized and standardized data source that includes real-time and historical trade information, as well as other relevant order book data such as quantities, prices, currencies, and timestamps. This is designed to enable ICE Data Services’ customers to receive global market representative trading data in a real-time feed. ICE Data Services’ Consolidated Feed will be the exclusive delivery mechanism.
