Trader Killa posted that despite the market facing multiple bearish factors—including the Fed's hawkish decision, rising oil prices, hotter-than-expected CPI data, surging global bond yields, a stronger dollar, the Ledger wallet hack, and market concerns over Strategy (MSTR)'s delisting risk and its pivot to AI—Bitcoin has still maintained range-bound trading. Given the current macroeconomic pressures and negative news, Bitcoin should have fallen below $70,000, but its resilience is noteworthy. The market may be gradually forming a significant interim bottom, and its ability to hold the price range amid bearish shocks indicates that it is absorbing negative news, which is also a typical characteristic of a bull market.
Odaily reports: Market analyst Murphy posted on X that MSCI officially approved new rules on October 15 to exclude non-operating companies that do not meet standards from its global investable market indices. Strategy had already been placed on the proposed removal list in a prior simulated screening, with the final results to be announced on November 11 and effective on November 30. Related index funds hold approximately 13 million shares of MSTR, valued at nearly $1.8 billion, equivalent to 60% of its 30-day average daily trading volume.Murphy stated that Strategy's core logic lies in driving growth in net Bitcoin per share through capital operations, and whether it can sustain this depends on market premiums and the extent of their contraction. MSTR's future performance depends on three variables: Bitcoin price, net Bitcoin per share, and mNAV; as of market close on October 16, its mNAV stood at 1.08x.
CryptoQuant Founder and CEO Ki Young Ju posted on X that analysts are not overly concerned about MSCI's decision, and overall market sentiment toward MSTR remains bullish. Target prices from Citibank, Barclays, and B. Riley are $240, $175, and $195 respectively, all recently raised with none lowered. He believes the impact of the MSCI exclusion is primarily limited to index-related fund flows, which have already been reflected in the stock price. What warrants attention now is Strategy's mNAV (the ratio of market capitalization to the value of its held Bitcoin) hovering around 1.0x, its perpetual preferred stock STRC trading at par, and the company's $3.75 billion in reserve funds, which are sufficient to cover dividend payments.
Bitcoin News posted on X that MSCI is advancing a proposed methodology that would classify Michael Saylor's Strategy, Japan's Metaplanet, and other digital asset treasury companies as "non-operating" enterprises, potentially excluding them from the MSCI Global Investable Market Indexes. JPMorgan estimates that passive funds tracking MSCI indexes may be forced to sell $2.8 billion worth of MSTR shares; if other index providers adopt similar rules, the broader capital outflow could reach $8.8 billion. Strategy's reverse analysis shows that MSCI-tracking funds hold approximately 3.1% of its outstanding shares; a final decision is expected around October 16, with implementation potentially beginning on November 30.
Odaily News According to a post by whale "Set 10 Big Goals First" on platform X, Bitcoin has firmly established support at $80,000 and is now targeting $100,000, calling it the "last chance to get on board." Based on the chart shared, crypto-related stocks and ETFs such as IBIT, CRCL, and MSTR saw significant gains today.
According to Bitcoin.com, Michael Saylor, Executive Chairman of Strategy (MSTR), introduced the concept of "Bitcoin Reformation" in a published article, arguing that Bitcoin should move beyond dogmatic interpretations of early tenets such as Satoshi Nakamoto, the whitepaper, and the "must self-custody" principle, and further integrate into banking, exchanges, corporate sectors, securities markets, and government systems. Saylor stated that while self-custody remains an essential right allowing holders to freely opt out of intermediary systems, it should not be imposed as a mandatory obligation on everyone; users can also evaluate institutional services based on criteria such as custody segregation, collateral, audits, insurance, and withdrawal rights. He believes that Bitcoin has gradually evolved from a peer-to-peer electronic cash system and "digital gold" into "digital capital" capable of supporting credit, equity, currency, and machine economies.

According to the NYDIG research report (Author: Greg Cipolaro, July 10, 2026), Bitcoin fell 13.4% in the second quarter of 2026, with year-to-date losses expanding to 32.9%, while the Nasdaq 100 Index rose 27.7% and tech stocks surged 43.5% during the same period, indicating that this decline was not due to macro risk aversion, but rather Bitcoin-specific supply pressure. The core pressure stems from Strategy (MSTR) launching the "Digital Credit Capital Framework," authorizing the sale of approximately $1.25 billion worth of Bitcoin to cover capital structure obligations, marking a shift of the largest historical marginal buyer from continuous accumulation to active monetization, and the DAT complex overall turning from a demand engine to a supply risk. Regarding ETFs, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a net outflow of $4.9 billion in the second quarter, but the Morgan Stanley Bitcoin Trust attracted $364.8 million in inflows against the trend, showing distribution channels remain competitive. Regarding the derivatives market, against the backdrop of weak spot demand and continuous outflows from ETFs and stablecoins, positive funding rates coupled with rising open interest indicate leveraged longs are rebuilding positions, posing a risk of passive liquidation triggering a new round of declines. Bitcoin has currently fallen 54.3% cumulatively from the all-time high of $126,000 set on October 6, 2025; if referencing the 2018 and 2022 cycles (gradually narrowing declines of approximately 70%, approximately 370
Odaily Strategy sold nearly $467 million worth of MSTR common stock last week but did not increase its Bitcoin holdings. Analysts believe this indicates that the company is implementing its recently proposed Digital Credit Capital Framework and beginning to prioritize strengthening its balance sheet, rather than solely pursuing short-term BTC accumulation.According to the latest filings, Strategy has increased its U.S. dollar cash reserves to $3 billion, while its Bitcoin holdings remain unchanged at 843,775 BTC. Both Benchmark and TD Cowen believe this move strengthens the company's balance sheet and helps boost market confidence in its preferred equity financing model.TD Cowen reiterated its "Buy" rating and $260 price target for Strategy stock, stating that this operation is an early signal of management executing the new capital allocation framework. The firm noted that Strategy's choice to expand dollar reserves and pause Bitcoin purchases demonstrates a greater emphasis on balance sheet discipline rather than maximizing short-term BTC accumulation.Benchmark also maintained its "Buy" rating with a $570 price target. On Monday, Strategy's stock price traded at approximately $91.50, near its long-term low. Overall, analysts believe that amid pressure on preferred equity financing tools like STRC and market focus on dividend coverage capacity, Strategy's increase in cash reserves may help alleviate investor concerns regarding a forced sale of BTC.
Odaily Odaily Planet Daily reported that Geoffrey Kendrick, Global Head of Digital Asset Research at Standard Chartered, stated that the market has misinterpreted Michael Saylor's adjustments to Strategy Inc.'s bitcoin strategy, and the recent selling pressure stems from confusion over this strategy rather than a change in bitcoin's long-term outlook. Strategy Inc. is shifting bitcoin from being a reserve accumulation asset to serving as collateral to support its STRC preferred stock. Kendrick maintains the bitcoin price forecast of $100,000 by the end of 2026. As of press time, BTC was trading at $64,322.89, and Strategy's stock MSTR closed at $94.64 on Friday. The outstanding notional value of STRC is approximately $10 billion, which Kendrick believes makes the preferred stock heavily overcollateralized due to its bitcoin backing. (Bitcoin.com News).

According to the weekly market report released by BIT Official, heavy selling in semiconductor and AI stocks on June 23-24 triggered defensive adjustments by institutional capital. BTC fell below $60K on June 24, hitting a low of ~$59,000 (intraday decline of approximately 5%). Approximately $994 million in liquidations occurred during the same period (of which approximately $780 million were long positions). Approximately $1.2 billion in nominal Put positions at the $60K level forced market makers to short, exacerbating the downward trend.
