📘 Bitcoin Corporate Standard Index (BCSI)
A rules-based index of established companies materially connected to Bitcoin
1. INDEX OBJECTIVE
The Bitcoin Corporate Standard Index (BCSI) tracks major, well-established public companies that meaningfully integrate Bitcoin into their business through:
1. Treasury exposure
2. Revenue derived from Bitcoin operations
3. Core Bitcoin financial/institutional infrastructure
This index aims to standardize and measure the growth of the corporate Bitcoin ecosystem, similar in structure to:
GDX (Gold Miners Index)
SOXX (Semiconductor Index)
XLE (Energy Sector Index)
2. INCLUSION CRITERIA
A company must:
Be listed on a major regulated exchange (NYSE, NASDAQ, TSX, LSE, etc.)
Meet at least ONE of the following criteria:
A. Bitcoin Treasury Exposure (BTC-TREASURY RULE)
Company must hold:
≥ 0.1% of market cap in Bitcoin, OR
≥ $50 million USD of Bitcoin
Whichever is lower.
This avoids tiny companies gaming the system and captures serious treasury allocators.
B. Bitcoin Revenue Exposure (BTC-REVENUE RULE)
Company must generate ≥ 10% of total revenue from Bitcoin-related activities:
Bitcoin mining
Bitcoin custody
Bitcoin transaction fees
Institutional Bitcoin services
Lightning payments
Brokerage of Bitcoin products
C. Bitcoin Infrastructure Contribution (BTC-INFRA RULE)
A company qualifies if it plays a systemically important role in Bitcoin's financial ecosystem, including:
ETF issuers
Custodial infrastructure
Settlement rails
Institutional liquidity providers
Hardware manufacturers (ASICs)
3. EXCLUSION CRITERIA (REMOVAL RULES)
A company is removed if:
1. Treasury Threshold Drops
BTC holdings fall below 50% of previous reported levels, or below 0.1% of market cap.
2. Revenue Exposure Drops Below 5%
3. Infrastructure Activity Ceases
Example: An ETF provider shuts down BTC products.
4. Liquidity / listing criteria fail
4. INDEX WEIGHTING METHOD
Modified market-cap weighting
No single company may exceed 30%
Rebalanced quarterly
Reviewed semi-annually for eligibility
This prevents MicroStrategy from overwhelming the index, while still giving it proper dominance.

Let’s help *everyone* get to the starting line.
Accessible to all, the story of Fiatello and the Big Red Button is something we can all send *before* the first Bitcoin book / podcast / video.
Please share it with everyone you care about (link below).
Thank you Bitcoin 🧡

MicroStrategy bulls straddle the line between Bitcoin and TradFi
Long time Bitcoiners are bewildered by finance and equity architecture (think $MSTR is a Ponzi)
TradFi are bewildered by Bitcoin, but understand equity architecture (think $MSTR is a ponzi)
Two separate groups, with separate reasons for misunderstanding the $MSTR long term thesis
Bewilderment intensifying

The main difference is that in the fiat system, the top 1% of wealth holders often dilute the purchasing power of the 99% through mechanisms like inflation, money printing, and centralized financial policies. This results in wealth erosion for the average person.
In contrast, with Bitcoin, the fixed supply cap of 21 million coins prevents inflationary dilution. Even if 1% of holders control a significant portion, the remaining 99% still benefit because Bitcoin’s scarcity and deflationary nature preserve and often increase the value of their savings over time. The decentralized nature of Bitcoin ensures that wealth is not eroded but protected, and as adoption grows, its network effect can amplify these benefits.
I’m finally speaking out.
I was targeted by a Zionist who impersonated me to the FBI in an attempt to put me on a No Fly List.
This is the story of what happened. This is what Zionists do to people who try to help Palestinians:
The issue is not that there are not enough houses. The issue is that the existing houses are being used as investments instead of being used as a living space because of the inflation/deprivation of the dollar.
This issue can be solved by having a hard money standard.
