🚨 THE COMPANY HOLDING THE MOST BITCOIN FACES A RISK THAT DOESN’T COME FROM BTC’S PRICE
I came across an important piece of news that people who only look at Bitcoin charts might overlook.
Strategy — the company associated with Michael Saylor and its BTC accumulation strategy — is at risk of being removed from MSCI’s global equity indexes under a new set of rules.
What caught my attention isn’t just the falling share price.
📌 Strategy has warned that if it is removed from the index, around $2.8 billion worth of the company’s shares could be sold.
Why is this worth watching?
Passive investment funds that track indexes typically have to adjust their portfolios when index constituents change. If Strategy is removed, MSTR shares could face pressure from portfolio rebalancing.
But it’s important to make one distinction:
- Selling MSTR shares is not the same as directly selling Bitcoin. Any impact on BTC would also depend on the market’s reaction and the company’s subsequent decisions.
- According to Reuters, MSCI is expected to announce its final list on 11/11; the new rules are expected to take effect at the end of November.
- I’ll be following this event because sometimes risks in the crypto market don’t start with price charts, but with changes in traditional financial markets.
