A strong supporter of Bitcoin, Justice cosponsored the BITCOIN Act, introduced by Senator Cynthia Lummis, to create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. He also advocates for regulatory clarity that shields consumers from fraud while fostering innovation without excessive federal control.
This week, MSCI decided to maintain the current inclusion of digital asset treasury companies, including Saylor’s firm, in its Global Standard Indexes for the time being, following mixed feedback from institutional investors.
The index provider said it would conduct further research and consultation before making future changes, while temporarily freezing index adjustments such as share count increases or size migrations for the affected companies.
