According to BlockBeats, on December 11, Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart shared insights on social media regarding the potential classification of MicroStrategy (MSTR) within the Nasdaq 100 index. The company's eligibility for inclusion in this prestigious index may largely depend on its Industry Classification Benchmark (ICB) categorization. MicroStrategy's operational focus plays a crucial role in determining its classification. If the company's primary business is identified as software-as-a-service (SaaS), it could be classified as a technology stock. This classification would align with the traditional criteria for inclusion in the Nasdaq 100, which predominantly features technology companies. However, the company's stock performance has increasingly been influenced by its financial engineering strategies, particularly its substantial investments in Bitcoin. Michael Saylor, the chairman of MicroStrategy, has previously expressed his ambition to transform the company into a "Bitcoin bank." This strategic direction has led to speculation about a potential reclassification of MicroStrategy by the ICB. If the ICB were to categorize MicroStrategy as a financial stock due to its Bitcoin-related activities, it would render the company ineligible for inclusion in the Nasdaq 100. This potential reclassification underscores the evolving nature of MicroStrategy's business model and its impact on the company's market perception and classification within major stock indices.

Compared to December 10, there has been a 16% increase in active buy orders and a 10% decrease in active sell orders. This shift in trading activity highlights a growing interest in purchasing, suggesting a potential change in market sentiment. The data, monitored by Trader T, provides insight into the current trading dynamics and investor behavior in the market.

Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart wrote on X platform that whether Microstrategy (MSTR) can be classified as a Nasdaq 100 may depend on its ICB classification. If the company's operating business is software as a service, it will be classified as a technology stock. But its stock price performance is now largely tied to financial engineering, stemming from its purchase of Bitcoin. Chairman Michael Saylor has said that he hopes to transform MicroStrategy into a "Bitcoin bank." If the ICB reclassifies MicroStrategy as a financial stock, it will not be eligible for the Nasdaq 100.

Regarding the recent market concerns about the quantum computer chip Willow and the freezing of Satoshi Nakamoto's private key, SlowMist founder Yu Xian quoted crypto researcher Jeffrey Scholz's tweet, saying: "The current dozens of gates of quantum computing are at least millions of gates away from being able to crack Bitcoin private keys. It is not easy to increase the number of quantum gates, and the noise and error rate will also increase, and you will quickly get a useless machine in the real world... Don't worry about Satoshi Nakamoto's private key decades later."
