Based on CryptoValleyJournal, MSCI Inc. is assessing whether companies with over 50% of assets in cryptocurrencies should remain in its equity indices. The index provider launched a consultation in late October, targeting firms like MicroStrategy, which could face up to USD 8.8 billion in capital outflows if excluded. MSCI argues such firms resemble investment vehicles rather than operating companies, violating typical index requirements. The consultation runs until 31 December 2025, with a decision expected in January 2026.
