According to @EleanorTerrett, MSCI has decided not to exclude companies holding Bitcoin treasuries from its global indexes, preserving their index eligibility status (source: @EleanorTerrett on X, Jan 6, 2026). According to Bitcoin For Corporations, examples cited as remaining eligible include @Strategy and @Metaplanet, alongside other Bitcoin treasury companies (source: @BitcoinForCorps on X, Jan 6, 2026).

According to the source, a bitcoin treasury leader argued to MSCI that excluding crypto-buying firms from its indices would hurt U.S. national security.

For traders, the issue centers on MSCI index eligibility for companies holding BTC on balance sheets, as MSCI indices are widely tracked by index funds and ETFs, meaning any policy clarification could influence passive flows and stock liquidity.
