Making the UK’s Most Traded Equities Accessible to All—No Terminal Required

Behind every trade, there’s a foundational component that can’t be ignored: real-time, reliable market data.

But that foundation has been closed off for too long. Today, the price feeds that fuel global finance are bought and sold behind gated terminals, locked into legacy infrastructure, and accessible only to an elite few.

ICYMI:

• Nasdaq’s U.S. market data revenue rose from ~$270M in 2012 to over $600M by 2023
• ICE, owner of the NYSE, made $1.4B from market data and connectivity services in 2023 alone
• 2024 saw record-breaking spending allocated towards market data, much of it locked into legacy systems.

The fact remains: if you can’t access high-fidelity, real-time data, you can’t access the market.

Pyth Network is rewriting that model.

Today, Pyth is bringing real-time, on-chain pricing for the UK’s most actively traded equities to developers, builders, and protocols everywhere—no terminal required.

From London to Layer 1s

As one of the most liquid and closely followed equity markets worldwide, the UK is represented by the FTSE 100: a benchmark index capturing the top 100 companies by market cap on the London Stock Exchange.

With this launch, anyone can access on-chain prices for these companies, including:

• Global banks and insurers
• Energy majors and industrials
• Household-name retailers and manufacturers

What once required costly data terminal access or direct exchange subscriptions is now accessible to anyone, and every feed is:

• Sourced from institutional-grade market participants
• Published every 400 milliseconds
• Live across 100+ blockchains

A New Market Data Economy

Global finance should run with the speed, access, and convenience of the internet.

Pyth’s new UK equity feeds bring us closer to the vision of a universal, composable price layer for the global economy. These feeds can unlock for users services such as:

• Structured product creation — synthetic ETFs, thematic indices, yield strategies
• Tokenized RWA markets — fractional exposure to traditional assets, backed by real prices
• On-chain market intelligence — real-time insight into sector flows, macro signals, and institutional activity

For developers, builders, and institutions, Pyth offers the foundation to build next-gen financial applications, minus the legacy limits that traditionally hold us back.

Trusted by Institutions. Used by Everyone

With every asset class Pyth adds, it drives financial system to include more participants, reduce costs, and enable more innovation than ever before. Here’s how that impacts everyone:

• Builders can launch smart financial products powered by verified, real-world equity data, from the UK, the US, and beyond
• Traders gain a clearer lens into global markets, with live prices and cross-market insights updated in milliseconds
• Institutions can tap into low-latency data feeds without the cost, contracts, or infrastructure overhead

One Price Layer. Endless Possibilities

From Wall Street to the Canary Wharf, the world’s most sought-after markets are now available on-chain. But Pyth’s UK equities launch is just one more step forward in a bigger mission: collecting the price of everything and making it available to all.

From here on out, foundational market data will be open, composably integrated, updated in real-time, and available to anyone with an internet connection.

No terminals. No intermediaries. Just real-world prices powering the global financial market.
