Holding 23,156 BTC worth approximately $1.8 billion, Strive ranks among the top five corporate Bitcoin holders

Odaily News, According to Bitcoin News monitoring, Strive purchased 1,800 Bitcoin between August 24 and August 28 at an average price of $79,431 per coin, with the transaction totaling approximately $143 million, including fees and related expenses. This purchase increased its Bitcoin holdings from 21,356 to 23,156 BTC, valued at approximately $1.8 billion, surpassing digital asset exchange Bullish to become the fifth-largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, trailing only Strategy, Twenty One Capital, Metaplanet, and MARA Holdings. Strive accumulated nearly 3,000 Bitcoin over a 15-day period, including 1,110 BTC purchased between August 17 and August 21 for approximately $81.5 million, and 79 BTC purchased earlier in August for approximately $5 million. Strive CEO Matt Cole confirmed the purchases in a post on X on August 31. The funds for these purchases came primarily from stock sales, rather than debt financing. During this period, the number of ASST common shares increased from approximately 79.9 million to 83.5 million, and the number of SATA preferred shares also rose. The two programs are expected to raise approximately $154.6 million, with roughly $143 million used to purchase Bitcoin. SATA currently offers an annual dividend of 13%, paid on each business day. Strive stated that it has repaid all outstanding debt, currently has no margin requirements, and its Bitcoin is not collateralized. The company purchased nearly 3,000 Bitcoin in August, and ASST shares rose more than 5% on Monday, bringing their monthly gain to nearly 100%. Raising funds through stock issuance to purchase Bitcoin may lead to dilution of existing shareholders' equity, while a decline in Bitcoin's price could also pose risks.

Strategy opposes MSCI's proposed index screening, may be removed from the Global Investable Market Index

Bitcoin treasury company Strategy Inc. requested MSCI on August 31 to withdraw the eligibility test that could result in its removal from the Global Investable Market Index (GIMI). Executive Chairman Michael Saylor and CEO Phong Le stated that the methodology is discriminatory, arbitrary, and misguided.MSCI proposes a two-stage screening process, where companies with operating assets exceeding 50% of total assets may retain their eligibility. Those that fail this test may be disqualified if they trigger at least four of five financial indicators. Simulations show that Strategy, Metaplanet, and Yellow Cake may be removed from the index, with Strategy involving a market capitalization of approximately $23.93 billion.Strategy stated that neither U.S. GAAP nor IFRS distinguishes between operating and non-operating assets in the manner proposed by MSCI, and it lists its bitcoin treasury business as a separate operating segment. The company also has approximately 1,500 employees, a software business with annual revenue nearing $500 million, and issues bitcoin-backed credit instruments. The MSCI consultation will end on September 30, with a decision expected to be announced on October 16. (Bitcoin.com News)

Metaplanet CEO: Blockchain near-real-time settlement will eliminate some market credit risk

TechFlow Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich commented that the waiting period from trade execution to settlement is not merely a procedural delay; it inherently carries counterparty credit risk regarding whether the counterparty remains solvent before the settlement date. If Japan promotes blockchain and deposit tokenization to achieve near-real-time settlement for stocks and government bonds, the market will be able to significantly compress this exposure, gradually eliminating a type of counterparty risk generated by the settlement cycle.

Metaplanet CEO: As AI Drives Replication Costs Toward Zero, Bitcoin's Absolute Scarcity Will Become More Valuable

Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich stated that his long-term bullish outlook on Bitcoin is not based on price trends, but rather on AI transforming the concept of scarcity in the economy. As AI significantly reduces the production and replication costs of software, content, analytics, and other products, future value may increasingly flow to assets whose supply cannot be expanded through technology.Gerovich noted that Bitcoin's 21 million supply cap is enforced by network rules and cannot be increased by improvements in production efficiency or intelligence levels. Meanwhile, as an asset that cannot be replicated or diluted and can be settled 24/7 globally, Bitcoin's scarcity attributes will become even more pronounced in a context where AI is driving more goods and services toward abundance.
