๐จ Operation Choke Point 3.0? Crypto Community Raises Alarm Over MSCI Rumors!
The crypto market is buzzing after circulating rumors that MSCI may remove digital-asset reserve companies from its global indices โ a move that many see as an alarming attack on the sector.
๐ฃ๏ธ David Bailey, CEO of Nakamoto and Chairman of Bitcoin Magazine, took to X with a powerful message calling the move โdiscriminatory, capricious, and strategically targeted.โ
According to Bailey, MSCI has actively supported Bitcoin and digital-asset inclusion for years โ
โ So why the sudden shift? Why target crypto while commodities like oil, gold, and agriculture remain index-eligible?
Bailey warns that if such a policy is approved, the fallout could be massive:
โ ๏ธ Potential Impacts if MSCI Excludes Bitcoin Companies:
Forced selling pressure worth tens of billions โ hurting investors worldwide.
Slowdown in Bitcoin startup funding, with fewer viable public-market exits.
Public companies may avoid holding Bitcoin, fearing index disqualification.
A blow to U.S. leadership in one of the fastest-growing global industries.
He also described the timing of the proposal โ first surfaced on October 10th โ as โhighly suspicious,โ suggesting it may have played a role in recent market turbulence.
โWe fought for fair banking access.
We fought for Bitcoin ETFs.
Now we must fight for fair market inclusion.โ
With 40% of global capital indexed through such systems, Bailey calls for Congressional and regulatory scrutiny, arguing that index providers should not have the power to exclude an entire competing industry.
๐ Final Thoughts
If true, this could be one of the most influential regulatory battles for Bitcoinโs future. The crypto community is preparing for what might become a historic pushback.
