Breaking: A major Bitcoin-holding company just fired back at MSCI's controversial proposal. The firm is demanding that MSCI withdraw its plan to kick out companies with digital asset treasuries from their global investable market indexes.
This isn't some small player making noise—we're talking about entities that have bet big on crypto as part of their corporate strategy. The pushback raises a critical question: Should holding Bitcoin disqualify you from mainstream investment benchmarks?
MSCI's move could set a precedent that affects how institutional money flows into crypto-forward companies. If major indexes start excluding firms just for having digital assets on their balance sheets, it might force some to choose between Bitcoin and traditional market access.
The stakes here go beyond one company. This could reshape how Wall Street views corporate crypto adoption. Will index providers bend to traditional finance pressure, or recognize that digital asset treasuries are becoming standard corporate practice?

Haha, MSCI's move is really outrageous. They still want to use indices to push out companies holding Bitcoin? Isn't this just an old trick of traditional finance, always trying to shift blame whenever they see crypto?

ngl, this is just traditional finance being scared... MSCI's move is too outrageous, holding tokens means being kicked out of the index? Then just ban it altogether.

Haha, MSCI, you're just shooting yourself in the foot... Do you really think you can kick out Bitcoin companies? Wake up, it's already 2024.

This time, it's really about tearing each other apart. MSCI's move is truly outrageous... Not allowing you to be included in the index just for holding the coin? Does Wall Street still want to do business?

Haha, MSCI's move is truly a "negative alpha king" level contrarian indicator...
The headline should be changed to "The Last Struggle of Traditional Finance," as they're here defending Bitcoin.
