Here's what moved markets today after the closing bell.

MSCI just announced that digital asset treasury companies will maintain their positions in the index for the February 2026 rebalancing. That's significant—and here's why the timing matters.

MSCI launched this review back on October 10. Ring any bells? That's the exact date markets took a sharp dive. The correlation between the index review announcement and the subsequent market crack seemed too coincidental to ignore.

What does this mean? Companies holding digital assets on their balance sheets now have clearer index stability going into 2026. The decision removes one layer of uncertainty that had been hanging over the sector.

NGL, MSCI's move is a bit bold. Announced on October 10th, and the market just plummeted. Now they're talking about stability? Seems a bit like gambling.

NGL, this MSCI decision can be considered a reassurance for digital asset companies... But hold on, the plunge on October 10th was really a tough moment. Here's another one: Stay steady, stay steady, at least until 2026, no more surprises from index rebalancing. Here's another one: ? So MSCI is just trying to create panic and then come to the rescue? This trick is so familiar. And another: Speaking of which, coin-holding companies should probably breathe a sigh of relief now... although this decision came half a year late.

Well... MSCI's move definitely reassured many people, but the timing on October 10th was truly perfect. I don't believe in coincidences.

Haha, now the big holders can breathe a sigh of relief. At least on the index side, they won't be bothered anymore.

It's already 2026, and we're still talking about stability. I just want to know if this wave can go up or not.
