Big positive news for Bitcoin and digital assets
MSCI reverses its plans and retains digital asset treasury companies (DATCOs) in its global indices!
- After consulting with investors, MSCI decided not to exclude companies whose digital asset holdings (such as $BTC) represent 50% or more of their total assets during the February 2026 review.
- This means MicroStrategy ($MSTR) and other Bitcoin treasury companies will remain in major indices, avoiding a potentially billions-of-dollar forced sell-off from passive funds.
- However, MSCI will open a broader consultation on the treatment of "non-operational" companies and will freeze weight increases for newly issued shares of such companies.
