Michael Saylor: We May Sell Some Bitcoin in the Future to Fulfill Dividend Payment Obligations
At the Q1 2026 earnings call, Michael Saylor stated that the company may sell some of its Bitcoin in the future to fulfill dividend payment obligations. Currently, Strategy’s annual dividend and debt interest obligations total approximately $1.5 billion; based on its current U.S. dollar reserves, this amount is estimated to cover roughly the next 18 months. Saylor summarized this model as: “Buy Bitcoin using credit financing, wait for its appreciation, then sell a portion of the Bitcoin to pay dividends.”
