Ethereum Brutally Denied After Fakeout, Bitcoin (BTC) Not Giving up $100,000 XRP Holders Should Mark Their Calendars for These Dates TL;DR Saylor appears at JP Morgan as Strategy faces possible MSCI index removal. Exactly 15 years since Satoshi Nakamoto’s last public Bitcoin post. Meme coins declared dead, but SHIB price and activity push back. Bitcoin mogul Michael Saylor makes JP Morgan move Michael Saylor , whose company, Strategy, holds 660,624 BTC worth $61.1 billion, continues his world tour and made it to JP Morgan's headquarters this time. There is more to it than just a visit, though. Strategy is under review right now for possible exclusion from the MSCI USA and MSCI World indices, and a decision is expected on Jan. 15. Based on estimates from JP Morgan, this move could lead to as much as $8.8 billion in passive outflows from funds that track those benchmarks. Advertisement That number caught her eye right away, and Saylor did not try to avoid it. He said that Strategy is part of the review process, but he is not sure if the projected outflows are realistic. Guess the ₿ank. pic.twitter.com/WIpzsS0P35 — Michael Saylor (@saylor) December 11, 2025 This is important because the company's entire business model is based on increasing its involvement in Bitcoin. Saylor has been pretty straightforward about this for a while. When Bitcoin drops, Strategy shares the drop even more. That is not a flaw in the model — it is the model itself. Advertisement The bigger concern here is something that goes beyond one company. Other DATs with similar balance-sheet strategies are dealing with the same math. If the price keeps going down, some of them might have to sell their assets. That feedback loop is exactly the index that committees and institutional allocators worry about. When you look at it that way, Saylor's visit to JP Morgan seems more about practical things than just symbolism. This was not a victory lap but a chance to talk about risk, perception and capital mechanics before a big decision in January that could totally change the industry.

On that date in 2010, he left a brief technical message on the BitcoinTalk forum about denial-of-service attack vectors. After that, Satoshi continued to communicate privately with a small group of developers, gradually handing over control and offering final guidance. By spring of 2011, those messages had stopped as well. From that point on, Bitcoin belonged fully to its users and maintainers. Source: BitcoinTalk This absence has aged better than anyone could have predicted. There was no foundation, board or personality left to influence markets or attract political pressure. Bitcoin grew without a face and this design choice still matters today. At a time dominated by public figures, corporate treasuries and negotiations with banks, the contrast is striking. Fifteen years later, Bitcoin’s creator remains silent, and that silence continues to protect the network. There is no one to summon, negotiate with or blame. The system stands on code and consensus alone. What once felt strange now reads like wisdom. Meme coins dead? Shiba Inu coin pushes back CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju woke up today and went on the offensive, saying that meme coin markets are dead. Of course, the statement spread quickly, triggering agreement, sarcasm and immediate pushback. At the same time, however, Shiba Inu coin data told a different story. SHIB saw an intraday price increase and a lot more buying going on. Instead of fading, the volume expanded with the price, and this happened without a wider market rally. The market cap was around $4.95 billion, the supply metrics were stable and the holder base remained unchanged. this is the single most bullish thing i have seen this week tho — RunnerXBT (@RunnerXBT) December 11, 2025 The replies under Ki Young Ju’s post clearly illustrate the split. Some saw the statement as contrarian fuel. Others pointed to stablecoin flows and on-chain data, contradicting a clean exit from the sector. Shiba Inu's (SHIB) price action did not settle the debate, but it added friction to the idea that the market has already moved on. Meme coins are not leading the cycle right now. That does not mean they are finished, though. Crypto market outlook This week did not change the trend, but it clarified the pressure points for crypto. Saylor's JP Morgan appearance confirms that Bitcoin exposure is now negotiated at the index level. The 15-year mark since Satoshi's disappearance contrasts with Bitcoin's nature; everything around it depends on committees, rules and capital. SHIB trades show that "dead" markets still see real bids. Bitcoin (BTC) : Trading at around $92,500, with $95,000 as the first upside resistance zone and $100,000 as the "sweet" extension area. Shiba Inu (SHIB) : Currently is at $0.00000845, and the first resistance band is at $0.0000092. If it reaches $0.00001, it will be a zero-deleting event.
