MSCI

Michael Saylor’s Strategy bought 1,286 BTC for $116 million, raising its Bitcoin holdings to 673,783 BTC and U.S. dollar reserves to $2.25 billion.

Index giant MSCI announces its decision January 15 on excluding companies with over 50% digital assets, including Bitcoin holders MicroStrategy and Metaplanet, potentially triggering $10-15B in forced sales and reshaping corporate Bitcoin strategies.

A proposed MSCI digital asset rule risks distorting index neutrality by redefining operating companies using balance-sheet thresholds instead of fundamentals.

Strategy released a letter to MSCI arguing that their proposed digital asset threshold is “misguided” and would have “profoundly harmful consequences."

Bitcoin For Corporations (BFC) challenged MSCI’s plan to exclude companies with over 50% of assets in digital assets, arguing it unfairly penalizes operating businesses.
