Because tokens in the DeFi ecosystem have such a wide range of market caps, we decided to use an adjusted algorithm for computing token weights. Rather than weighing assets by market cap, we weigh them by market cap square root. This algorithm still favors tokens with larger market caps but does not result in some assets having such a massively higher weight than the others that the smaller cap tokens are effectively irrelevant, which would be the case in many indices if standard market cap weighting was used.
