Today's Top Headlines

MSCI has announced not to remove Bitcoin and crypto treasury companies from its indexes.

However, they have added a new rule. When treasury companies issue new shares, MSCI will not add those extra shares to its indexes. Before this, when Strategy and other treasury companies used to issue new shares, big index funds had to buy some of those new shares. Now those funds won't need to buy the new shares anymore. This means the automatic buying demand has now gone, and it'll be less attractive to issue new shares. The result of this will be less money raised through share dilution.

The issue involves 57.5 BTC worth around $6M that were forfeited by Samourai Wallet devs after their 2025 guilty pleas and prison sentences. A Nov 3rd court agreement directed the US Marshals to liquidate the assets, with blockchain data showing movement to Coinbase Prime.

Lummis argues this defies Executive Order 14233, and White House Crypto advisor Patrick Witt says they are investigating.

U.S. May Seize Venezuela Crypto Assets

On January 5, 2026, CNBC reporter MacKenzie Sigalos reported that the Venezuelan government has attempted to use the stablecoin Tether to conduct oil transactions in order to circumvent sanctions, with portions of the proceeds moved into Bitcoin. Against this backdrop, markets are discussing the possibility that, following U.S. government intervention, related crypto assets could be seized and held rather than liquidated—a scenario viewed as a potential factor influencing Bitcoin supply dynamics and market sentiment.
