Balchunas also <a href="https://x.com/EricBalchunas/status/1866605762396688699" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">responded</a> to a query about grounds for possible exclusion, saying there was none from what they saw.The Nasdaq and MicroStrategy did not immediately return a request for comment.<h3 id="another-watershed-moment">Another watershed moment</h3>A possible inclusion marks a watershed moment for crypto-focused companies entering mainstream finance.The Nasdaq-100 indexes the hundred largest non-financial companies on the Nasdaq exchange, serving as a key benchmark for sectors like technology, consumer services, and healthcare.Its composition and performance directly influence market sentiment and investment flows, particularly in growth-focused sectors of the U.S. economy.The index also underpins several investment products, most notably the Invesco QQQ Trust ETF, making it a critical mechanism for institutional and retail market participation.With approximately $550 billion in ETF assets tracking the index, membership changes trigger substantial portfolio adjustments and can significantly impact trading volumes and market dynamics.It comes as MicroStrategy scooped up another 21,550 BTC for $2.1 billion at $98,000 per coin on Monday. It&#39;s also the firm&#39;s fifth-straight purchase. The most recent buy brings its total crypto war chest to 423,650 BTC, worth roughly $42 billion at current prices.The market has noticed this, too. MicroStrategy shares have skyrocketed over 450% this year, dwarfing <a href="https://cryptosnewss.com/category/bitcoin-news/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin&#39;s</a> 110% climb over the same period.As a result, the company&#39;s market value has swelled to $82 billion—up from $54.8 billion a month ago—as traditional investors seek crypto exposure through familiar equity markets.The post <a href="https://cryptosnewss.com/microstrategy-set-to-join-nasdaq-100-sparking-etf-buying-spree/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">MicroStrategy Set to Join Nasdaq 100, Sparking ETF Buying Spree</a> appeared first on <a href="https://cryptosnewss.com" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Cryptos Newss.</a>
