Recently, there was an interesting development. The world's largest index provider changed a rule—it decided not to kick out a major Bitcoin treasury company for now, but it added an invisible clause.
Here's the key point: from now on, any newly issued shares by this company will not be included in the index weightings. What does that mean? It means that passive index-tracking funds won't automatically buy these new shares.
What does this disrupt? The original logic was: company issues new shares → raises funds → buys Bitcoin → stock price rises → funds follow to buy → continuous inflow of capital. Now, this cycle is broken. Passive funds won't follow, and the efficiency of financing naturally takes a hit.
Similar situations could also affect other Bitcoin-related fund companies. This will pose a significant constraint on their future issuance plans.

Ah... this move by the index company is brilliant. On the surface, they don't kick you out, but in reality, they have put you in an invisible shackles.
The blood vessel of financing has been cut off. How can the story go from here?

Damn, that's a brilliant move. On the surface, they didn't kick you out, but behind the scenes, they directly cut your blood vessel.

The way of playing has changed again, and this move with passive funds directly hits a bottleneck.

Whoa, is this a disguised way of cutting leeks? Once the financing chain is broken, it's not so easy to raise money anymore.
