Analysis: MSCI's "hidden clauses" may cut off incremental capital inflows into Strategy.

2026/01/08 12:22

PANews reported on January 8th that, according to CryptoSlate, MSCI, a global provider of stock and ETF market benchmarks, has announced that it will not remove Bitcoin treasury company Strategy for the time being. However, a hidden clause stating "MSCI will not implement any increases to the Number of Shares (NOS)" has attracted community attention. This clause means that shares newly issued by Strategy through ATMs will not be included in the MSCI index weighting and will not trigger passive fund purchases. In other words, MSCI acknowledges the existence of cryptocurrency reserve stocks but refuses to continue providing passive funds to support ATM issuances. Even if Strategy issues more shares, passive funds will not follow suit, cutting off incremental funds and breaking Strategy's "infinite funding cycle" of relying on issuing new shares to raise funds to purchase Bitcoin and then having ETFs force purchases to support the stock price. It is understood that in addition to Strategy, potentially affected Bitcoin treasury companies include Metaplanet and Capital B.

World Liberty Financial Approves WLFI Token Buyback Plan

The post World Liberty Financial Approves WLFI Token Buyback Plan appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Points: WLFI plans significant token buyback. Buyback aims to enhance token value. 99.84% approval received for the strategy. World Liberty Financial’s governance proposal mandates using all liquidity fees for WLFI token buybacks and permanent removal, receiving 99.84% voter support by September 19, 2025. This initiative aims to boost WLFI’s price stability, targeting committed investors, amid volatile market conditions post-launch. WLFI Buyback Gains Overwhelming 99.84% Support World Liberty Financial (WLFI) announced a significant governance decision regarding its native token. With a notable 99.84% voter approval, all liquidity-generated fees will fund buybacks and permanent burns of WLFI tokens, enhancing long-term value. This effort marks a substantial shift in the project’s financial strategy, as the Trump family continues to play a shaping role with their association.
