CF Benchmarks is a digital-asset benchmark provider responsible for cryptocurrency market data platform and related index or reference-rate products. Its work also involves asset sector taxonomy, reference price construction, and market pair normalization, making data eligibility, venue selection, calculation windows, governance, and restatement policies material to each published value.

Methodology reviews, venue eligibility, calculation incidents, licensing, and governance belong under CF Benchmarks when they alter cryptocurrency market data platform, CME reference rate provider, or digital asset index methodology. Retail price dashboards are separate from CF Benchmarks; this tag is reserved for administered indices, reference rates, and formal calculation rules connected to cryptocurrency market data platform.
