Strategy just fired back at MSCI's latest move. The firm formally opposed a proposal that would kick digital asset treasury companies out of major global market indexes.

Their argument? These aren't just crypto holders—they're legit operating businesses. Strategy called out the proposed 50% digital-asset threshold as completely random, lacking any real logic. They're saying MSCI's trying to draw lines where none should exist.

The pushback highlights a bigger fight brewing: how traditional finance wants to classify companies holding significant crypto on their balance sheets. If MSCI pushes this through, it could reshape how institutional money flows into crypto-forward corporations.

Strategy's making it clear they won't let their treasury strategy get penalized without a fight.

Coming back with this again? MSCI just wants to set a ceiling for crypto companies.

According to research, the MSCI threshold criterion of 50% indeed cannot withstand scrutiny — it is entirely a shot in the dark, lacking data support. From an asset classification perspective, publicly traded companies holding digital assets are essentially operating entities and should not be excluded from the index solely because of treasury allocations. It is worth noting that this reflects a systemic misjudgment by traditional financial institutions regarding the status of cryptocurrencies.

MSCI trying to kick out digital asset companies this time? Laughable. Traditional finance still uses arbitrary thresholds like 50% to draw the line. It's truly an outrageous mess that even a Martini couldn't fix.
