Market data is becoming a software product. The customer is increasingly an application pulling data through an API, combining sources to price a trade, manage risk or build a new market.
Nasdaq choosing Pyth to distribute Nasdaq Basic in September was a big moment for that shift. An institution with an established data business saw a new way to reach those customers.
That’s what we’re building with Pyth: a place where exchanges can distribute their data and developers can bring more of those sources into the products they build.
did you know @Kalshi is using @PythNetwork for its Midterms prediction markets?
Pyth publishes the index value every 30 seconds and that data is used to settle the contracts
so it’s not just about who wins the election, it’s about what the data says
here’s how it all works 👇🏽
Perps are already a better product for holding equity exposure.
Last night was another proof point. Nvidia's board opened an investigation into reports that Jensen Huang was targeted by Chinese intelligence, with Nasdaq closed.
Perps kept trading. By this morning they had NVDA about 6% under Friday's close, with roughly $840M traded overnight, about 22x the usual pace.
Nasdaq is still where NVDA trades deepest. It just no longer holds price discovery monopoly.

perps doing what perps do best.
