Odaily reports: According to Bitfinex analysis, Strategy shareholders voted on October 28 to approve a proposal for daily dividend payments on STRC preferred stock, with preliminary results showing 99.3% of votes in favor. STRC is expected to shift from semi-monthly dividend payments to daily dividend payments starting November 1, with the first cash dividend payment arriving on November 2; Strategy's other three preferred stocks, STRF, STRK, and STRD, are expected to follow suit in January 2027.Strategy's move aims to reduce price volatility around ex-dividend dates. Company CEO Phong Le stated that previously, when STRC paid dividends monthly, prices fell by an average of about 49 basis points around the ex-dividend date, which dropped to about 36 basis points after switching to semi-monthly payments. The company expects that daily dividend payments will further disperse selling pressure and improve price stability.This model was not pioneered by Strategy. Bitcoin treasury company Strive converted its SATA preferred stock to daily dividend payments in June of this year and launched a subordinated preferred stock, SATS, with a fixed annual dividend rate of 15%. In October, Strive issued 7 million shares of SATS at $90 per share, raising approximately $630 million, and used about $511 million of that to purchase 6,182 BTC.
Bitcoin Treasuries posted that Strive (ASST) is pushing for the second spot on the Bitcoin treasury rankings, with a funding round of $700 million that was 2x oversubscribed. As of now, cumulative Bitcoin treasury holdings have reached 36,818 BTC. SATS has begun trading. @GrafYves, @TheOtherParker_, and @TylerCompiler will provide analysis on this, and the discussion also touches on whether STRC has a pricing discrepancy relative to SATA.
Odaily News: Bitcoin treasury company Strive (ASST) has announced plans to issue a new class of perpetual preferred stock, SATS, aiming to offer 5 million shares at $100 per share, targeting a raise of $500 million. The proceeds will be used to increase Bitcoin holdings, acquire yield-generating assets, or repurchase company shares.SATS has a fixed dividend rate of 15%, with dividends paid daily, and ranks junior to the company's existing SATA preferred stock, which carries a floating dividend rate currently at 13%. Strive also plans to establish a reserve equivalent to the total dividends for the first 18 months of SATS upon completion of the offering. Additionally, Strive increased its holdings by 3,311 Bitcoin last week, bringing its total position to 32,773 BTC, valued at approximately $2.7 billion. (CoinDesk)
Odaily reports: Bitcoin News posted on X that Strive's SATA preferred stock raised an estimated $55 million during the week of October 5, enough at last week's prices to purchase approximately 638 bitcoins. As of October 2, the company held 29,462 BTC. From September 28 to October 4, Strategy did not sell any STRC shares. An 8-K filing submitted on Monday will reveal whether this SATA cash was actually converted into Bitcoin.
Strive CEO Matt Cole announced on X that Strive purchased 2,000 BTC last week for $169 million, at an average cost of $84,422 per coin, bringing total holdings to 29,462 BTC. 61.5% of the financing came from SATA, with warrants generating $56.7 million. The 8-K filing submitted today also disclosed key metrics and KPIs as of the third quarter of 2026.
Strive CEO Matt Cole disclosed that Strive acquired 2,000 BTC at an average price of $84,422 per coin, bringing total spending to approximately $169 million and raising the company's total Bitcoin holdings to 29,462 BTC. In this financing round, 61.5% of the funds came from SATA, while warrants generated an additional $56.7 million in proceeds.
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.
Odaily News: BitcoinTreasuries.NET indicates that SATA, a subsidiary of Strive, has raised enough funds today to purchase 104 Bitcoin.
Jeff Walton (@PunterJeff) of Strive stated that Strive is raising funds at a rate of $8.1 million per day. If this capital is used to pay dividends, it could support the issuance of $15.5 billion worth of SATA tokens. Jeff Walton indicated that this amount of capital is equivalent to purchasing approximately 175,000 BTC at current prices, which would increase its total BTC holdings to 10 times its current size.

: STRC once fell to $97.11, then rebounded and closed at $98.57. Attention is being paid to Strategy's ability to continue using this preferred security as a financing tool through ATM issuance.After repurchasing $1.5 billion in convertible debt, Strategy's cash reserves dropped to approximately $871 million, only covering about six months of its estimated $1.7 billion annual preferred dividend obligations. Strive's perpetual preferred security SATA remains near its $100 par value, supported by an approximately 13% dividend yield and the company's plan to launch daily dividend payments.
