Overview

Michael Saylor, Executive Chairman of Strategy, visited Washington this week and met with Senator Jim Justice to discuss digital assets. Saylor was accompanied by Strategy CEO Phong Le during the engagement.

Key Discussion Points

Saylor praised Senator Justice for advocating market neutrality and supporting the digital asset industry. The senator is a strong Bitcoin advocate who cosponsored the BITCOIN Act, introduced by Senator Cynthia Lummis, aimed at creating a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.

This week, MSCI decided to maintain the current inclusion of digital asset treasury companies, including Saylor’s firm, in its Global Standard Indexes for the time being, following mixed feedback from institutional investors.

The index provider announced it would conduct further research and consultation before making future changes, while temporarily freezing index adjustments such as share count increases or size migrations for the affected companies.

Saylor is running errands in Washington again? This guy really never seems to be idle. It feels like politicians are finally starting to take BTC seriously.

NGL Saylor is busy in Washington again... Can he push something this time, or is it just the same old rhetoric?

Saylor is really pushing the Bitcoin reserve concept this time. If Congress actually passes it, that would be incredible. Betting that regulatory attitudes will change.

Did Saylor lobby Congress? This must be serious; the BTC reserve issue is really becoming a thing.

Saylor's move this time is quite impressive, directly lobbying senators. He's paving the way for Bitcoin reserves... But will the senators really listen?

Saylor is lobbying in DC again? This guy really treats Bitcoin as a national policy to promote. Impressed by his execution, just wonder what the politicians are thinking...

saylor's actually doing the lobbying rounds now? lmao dude's optimizing his regulatory gas fees. tbh if you're not already positioning before the policy window closes, you're leaving basis points on the table fr fr
