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.
Strategy purchased 10,624 bitcoin for about $963 million last week, lifting its total holdings to 660,624 BTC as shares edged higher alongside a modest rebound in bitcoin prices.
TD Cowen analysts warn that Strategy’s stock may stay under pressure as they expect MSCI to formally decide by mid-January to remove PBTCs like Strategy from all its indexes in February.
Michael Saylor took to X to dismiss concerns about MSCI-driven outflows, emphasizing that Strategy is an operating company with a $500 million software business and a $7.7 billion Bitcoin-backed digital credit program.
Strategy faces the risk of being removed from major equity indices, with JPMorgan warning that MSCI’s January 15 decision could trigger up to $2.8B–$8.8B in passive outflows and deal a major blow to Saylor’s bitcoin-leveraged strategy.
Strategy released its third-quarter earnings and reported a year-to-date Bitcoin yield of 26%, generating $12.9 billion in gains amid the ongoing 2025 crypto bull market.
At Money 20/20, Michael Saylor expressed bullish Bitcoin predictions — $150,000 by the end of 2025 and up to $1 million in four to eight years — citing industry shifts and new investment products as catalysts for institutional adoption.
