Bitcoin (BTC) is likely to benefit from Strategy (MSTR) joining the S&P 500 Index, which could unlock billions in inflows for both the company and Bitcoin. Strategy, the world's leading Bitcoin treasury firm, holds more than 3% of BTC's total supply. Its inclusion in the benchmark index could have a positive impact on the cryptocurrency market.
Bitcoin (BTC) may benefit from the inclusion of Strategy (MSTR) in the S&P 500 Index, potentially unlocking billions in inflows for both the company and the cryptocurrency. Strategy, the world's leading Bitcoin treasury firm, holds more than 3% of BTC's total supply, and its addition to the benchmark index could have a positive impact on the cryptocurrency market.Strategy's impressive Q2 2025 results, reported $14 billion in operating income and $10 billion in net income, highlight the company's resilience despite a shaky macroeconomic backdrop. The adoption of new fair-value accounting standards allowed Strategy to recognize unrealized gains on its BTC holdings, boosting profitability as Bitcoin hit a new all-time high of $124,128 on August 14 [1].
The S&P 500 Index is a stock market index that tracks the performance of 500 of the largest publicly traded companies in the US. To qualify for inclusion, companies must meet several requirements, including being US-based, having at least 12 months of trading history on a major US exchange, a market cap exceeding $22.7 billion, and at least 50% of shares publicly held. Strategy meets all these criteria and could join Coinbase and Jack Dorsey’s Block as only the third major crypto-related firm in the coveted benchmark [2].
If Strategy is added to the S&P 500 Index, it would join Coinbase and Jack Dorsey’s Block as only the third major crypto-related firm in the coveted benchmark. At press time, BTC trades at $108,651, down 0.2% over the past 24 hours.
The next potential window for inclusion is the September 2025 rebalance, with announcements expected Sept. 5 and changes taking effect Sept. 19. While the S&P Dow Jones Indices committee retains discretion, Strategy’s qualification underscores the growing role of Bitcoin in mainstream financial markets [2].
