STRATEGY MAINTAINING POSITION IN NASDAQ 100 – IMPORTANT SIGNAL FOR BITCOIN ON WALL STREET
According to Reuters (12/12), Strategy – the company that owns the largest Bitcoin reserve in the world – has officially been retained in the Nasdaq 100 index, despite debates and supervisory pressure related to the "Bitcoin treasury" model.
This is a noteworthy development. Nasdaq 100 is an index representing the 100 largest and most liquid non-financial companies on the Nasdaq exchange. Strategy's continued presence indicates:
👉 The US market accepts the business model of holding Bitcoin as a strategic asset, rather than viewing it as a risk factor to be eliminated.
This decision also has practical implications for cash flow. When Strategy is in the Nasdaq 100, ETF funds and index funds are forced to hold this stock, meaning they indirectly maintain exposure to Bitcoin in traditional portfolios.
In the context where MSCI previously considered removing Strategy from the global index, Nasdaq's inaction in a similar direction shows a clear difference in how index organizations evaluate digital assets.
In summary, this is not just a story of a single stock. It reflects a process $BTC
that is gradually being "institutionalized" within the US financial system – slowly, cautiously, but hard to reverse.
