🛡️ Saylor Upholds Bitcoin Approach Against MSCI Index Challenge
Michael Saylor's MicroStrategy has officially opposed MSCI's plan to exclude digital asset treasury firms (DATs) from its primary indices, cautioning against considerable financial market instability.
Saylor, addressing the X platform, emphasized that index criteria should stay neutral and align with worldwide market trends. MSCI is contemplating excluding companies such as MicroStrategy—whose Bitcoin assets make up over 50% of their total assets—arguing that they behave like passive "investment funds" rather than active operating companies.
MicroStrategy strongly disputes this categorization, asserting that it is a dynamic software firm that employs Bitcoin as "productive capital." The results of the MSCI consultation, expected in early 2026, will be crucial, likely leading to billions in passive fund withdrawals and establishing a significant benchmark for crypto-focused companies in traditional finance. Saylor’s belief in his Bitcoin approach stays "steady."
