Strategy maintains Nasdaq 100 index position! Michael Saylor: Will continue accumulating Bitcoin until the market shuts up

The world’s largest Bitcoin corporate holder Strategy brings good news: it has successfully maintained its position in the NASDAQ 100 index, avoiding the risk of being delisted. However, this victory is only a temporary respite, as underlying business model controversies and the upcoming MSCI review still cast uncertainty over the future of this “Bitcoin accumulation giant.”
(Background: MicroStrategy requests MSCI to withdraw the “Delist MSTR” proposal: the 50% token holding threshold is baseless, which is stifling American innovation!)
(Additional context: Strategy CEO: Only when MicroStrategy’s mNAV drops below 1 and financing is cut off will Bitcoin be sold. How is the net asset value actually calculated?)

According to Reuters report yesterday (13th), MicroStrategy (formerly MicroStrategy), the Bitcoin holdings leader among publicly listed companies worldwide, successfully retained its spot in the NASDAQ 100 index on Friday, allowing it to continue its one-year membership in this benchmark index.

This marks the company’s first annual test since joining the NASDAQ 100 in December 2024. Although analysts previously worried about its stock price decline and its Bitcoin reserve model possibly leading to delisting, no changes ultimately occurred. The decision was announced on December 12 and will take effect on December 22, with Strategy remaining in this technology-heavy benchmark index.

Michael Saylor: Will continue accumulating Bitcoin

In response to this good news, Strategy founder Michael Saylor also posted on X platform, reaffirming the company’s long-term commitment to holding Bitcoin. He openly stated that they will keep accumulating Bitcoin until the market stops complaining.

The Bitcoin hoarding will continue until the complaining stops.

Market concerns remain

However, market concerns about MicroStrategy have not dissipated. Many analysts and market observers believe that Strategy’s “buy and hold Bitcoin long-term” approach makes it more like a Bitcoin leveraged investment vehicle or a closed-end fund rather than a traditional software or operating company. As of December 2025, its Bitcoin holdings exceeded 660,000 coins, far surpassing other assets, fueling ongoing debates about whether it should be included in mainstream stock indices.

Meanwhile, concerns about the long-term sustainability of “digital asset treasury companies” (Digital Asset Treasury companies) holding large amounts of crypto assets are rising, especially amid increased Bitcoin price volatility in 2025. Since these companies’ stock prices are highly correlated with Bitcoin, their volatility risk is amplified.

Besides the NASDAQ 100 index, global index providers MSCI are currently evaluating whether to exclude companies with Bitcoin allocations exceeding 50% (including Strategy and others) from major indices such as MSCI USA and MSCI World, citing that such companies may resemble investment funds rather than operating businesses.

Although Strategy has formally opposed this and is actively engaging with MSCI, the outcome remains uncertain. The final decision is expected to be announced on January 15, 2026 (if implemented, it will take effect during the February index adjustment). Overall, Strategy’s position in the NASDAQ 100 remains stable in the short term, but MSCI’s decision will be a key point of observation early 2026.
