Analysis: Strategy's Move to Daily Dividends May Reduce Volatility and Enhance Bitcoin Financing Capacity
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.
Strive plans to issue up to $1 billion in SATS preferred shares via ATM.
According to U.S. SEC filings, Strive, Inc. filed a Form 424B5 prospectus supplement on October 26, announcing sales agreements with Cantor Fitzgerald, Barclays, Clear Street, StoneX, B. Riley, Maxim Group, and H.C. Wainwright to issue up to $1 billion in aggregate of 15.00% Series A Perpetual SATS Preferred Stock through an at-the-market (ATM) offering. Agent commissions are capped at 2.0% of gross proceeds. The SATS Preferred Stock trades on the Nasdaq Global Market, closing at $94.88 per share on October 23, below the $100 initial liquidation preference. Of the 7 million shares currently outstanding, the newly offered shares will carry identical terms. Based on a $100 par value, the preferred stock carries an annual cumulative dividend rate of 15%. Upon the closing of its IPO on October 20, the company established a dividend reserve by depositing $22.50 per share into an account to cover dividend payments for the first 18 months. Additionally, if the public float falls below 25% of the total shares issued in the initial offering and subsequent additions, or in the event of a "tax event," the company retains the right to redeem all shares. In the event of a "fundamental change," holders have the right to require the company to redeem at par plus accrued
Strategy, Strive and others have financed the purchase of 135,979 BTC through preferred stock offerings, accounting for over 0.5% of Bitcoin's maximum supply
Since 2025, as of October 5, Bitcoin treasury companies such as Strategy and Strive have financed the purchase of 135,979 BTC through preferred stock offerings, accounting for more than 0.5% of Bitcoin's maximum supply; the related preferred stock market is approximately $12 billion. Perpetual preferred stock has no fixed maturity date, which can alleviate refinancing pressure and attract yield-oriented investors who are unwilling to hold Bitcoin directly; however, expanding issuance also increases dividend expenses. Sustained financing for Bitcoin purchases depends on preferred stock trading at or near par value. If prices fall below par, the appeal of new issuance may decline, and companies may turn to buybacks. James Butterfill, Head of Research at CoinShares, said Strategy's latest weekly report shows the company spent $193 million to repurchase STRC, bought 267 BTC during the same period, and raised its preferred stock repurchase authorization to $3 billion. Buybacks can reduce future dividend costs but also compete with Bitcoin purchases for capital. Ryan Rasmussen, Head of Research at Bitwise, expects ETFs will remain a larger source of Bitcoin demand over the long term, while perpetual preferred stock covers a different group of yield-oriented investors and provides another source of demand support for the market. Butterfill believes preferred stock may amplify market cycles: when financing conditions are favorable, it supports Bitcoin purchases; when market sentiment weakens, that support may diminish.
Fidelity believes there is room for growth in Bitcoin demand from the $15 trillion global fixed income market
Odaily Report: Fidelity Digital Assets research analyst Zack Wainwright noted in an analysis published on October 20 that preferred stock financing oriented toward Bitcoin could attract capital from the approximately $15 trillion global fixed income market. Fidelity estimates that the size of this type of preferred stock is approximately $12 billion.As of October 5, preferred stock financing has supported the purchase of 135,979 BTC, of which more than 95,000 were purchased between March and May. Fidelity estimates that nearly 96% of Bitcoin's maximum supply has been issued, and the next halving is expected in less than two years.Bitcoin treasury company Strive Inc. completed a 15% Series A Perpetual SATS Preferred Stock offering on October 20, selling 7 million shares at $90 per share for total proceeds of $630 million; the dividend rate is calculated on a $100 par value and is 15% annualized.Bitcoin treasury company Strategy Inc. disclosed that it holds 848,517 BTC and purchased 267 BTC the previous week for $22.1 million, using proceeds from common stock issuance and cash. Fidelity noted that the performance of related instruments is affected by both Bitcoin and the issuing company. (Bitcoin.com News)
Strive Completes $630 Million Preferred Stock Financing, SATS Annualized Dividend Yield at 15%
Strive announced the completion of a $630 million financing through the issuance of preferred stock. The newly issued SATS shares are priced at $90 with a par value of $100, carrying an annualized dividend yield of 15%, translating to an actual yield of nearly 16.7%; daily cash dividend payments are scheduled to begin on November 9, subject to board approval. Between October 12 and 16, Strive also purchased 4,045 BTC, bringing its total Bitcoin holdings to 36,818 BTC. ASST closed up over 13% on Wednesday at $30.75, marking its third consecutive trading day of gains.
Bitcoin treasury company shifts to high-yield financing, Strive's preferred stock effective yield nears 17%
Odaily report: As the financing models of Bitcoin treasury companies Strategy and Strive come under pressure, related companies are attracting investors by offering higher-yield preferred stock to sustain their crypto asset accumulation strategies. Strategy's STRC preferred stock, which carries a 12% annualized dividend rate, has not been issued again since its price decline in June. The company is now seeking to promote daily dividend payments and continues to raise funds by issuing additional common stock to buy Bitcoin, resulting in equity dilution for existing shareholders.Bitcoin treasury company Strive disclosed that it has completed a $630 million preferred stock offering, with the fundraising scale about 25% higher than initially planned. The preferred stock carries a nominal annualized yield of 15% and was issued at a discount, with an effective yield of nearly 17%, far exceeding the yield on one-year high-grade U.S. Treasury bonds and approaching the returns on distressed debt.

BTC Breaks $79K, Igniting a "Crypto Stock Rally": Mining Firms and BTC Treasury Companies Surge
as the cryptocurrency market continues its rebound, shares of Bitcoin mining firms and digital asset treasury companies rose over the weekend. Market participants believe that the U.S. Treasury's announcement to expand the scale of long-term Treasury buybacks has boosted liquidity expectations, fueling improved sentiment toward risk assets and further lifting crypto-related stocks. Bitcoin mining firm Canaan saw its share price surge over 25%; MARA Holdings continued to climb after rising nearly 16% on Thursday. Strive, a digital asset treasury company holding more than 20,000 BTC, gained over 16% on Friday.Additionally, Trump stated that the U.S. government may purchase Bitcoin on a "large scale" in the future. The market rally was also driven by improved expectations for U.S. regulatory clarity. On Thursday, President Trump again urged Congress to advance the CLARITY Act, a bill aimed at further defining the U.S. digital asset regulatory framework and delineating the respective oversight roles of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in the crypto market.

Opinion: Bitcoin is the ultimate AI trade and the "Human ETF"
Odaily News, Strive Vice President Joe Burnett posted on X, stating that Bitcoin is the ultimate AI trade, as mass unemployment and a significant contraction in wealth will lead to massive currency issuance.In the accompanying article, Joe Burnett stated that traditional assets face dilution or competitive mechanisms as long-term stores of value: fiat currency supply expands with credit cycles, fiscal deficits, and central bank policies; stock profits attract competition, regulation, and technological disruption; rising real estate prices drive more construction; and higher gold prices stimulate more mining.He stated that Bitcoin's terminal supply is fixed, cannot be inflated in response to increased demand, belongs to no company, industry, or government, and is not someone else's liability. Human progress brings more output, efficiency, and wealth, and that wealth needs to flow into assets that cannot be diluted by issuance.Joe Burnett said that over the past ~17 years, Bitcoin has evolved from an open-source project into a globally recognized monetary network, outperforming most other asset classes over 4+ year cycles. Its volatility is tied to the growth process, but the supply rules remain unchanged. As the network expands and more capital enters, daily volatility may narrow.
Analysis: Bitcoin Breaks Above $72K, Dollar Weakness and Fed Liquidity Expectations Become Key to Outlook
Odaily News - Bitcoin extended its gains on Wednesday and climbed above $72,000 on Thursday, reaching its highest level since June 1.Market analysis suggests that the recent rally is primarily driven by easing pressure in the U.S. Treasury market. The White House's earlier signals of support for Treasury market stability alleviated investor concerns over bond market volatility. However, the longer-term trajectory still depends on changes in Federal Reserve liquidity policy.Analyst Pedro Fontes noted that if the world's largest debt market requires policy support to maintain stable operation, it would further strengthen demand for assets that are scarce, predictable, and not reliant on government debt expansion—characteristics that Bitcoin aligns with. Meanwhile, the U.S. dollar index fell 0.88% to 98.77 yesterday, hitting a fresh low since May.Strive Founder and CEO Matt Cole stated that the dollar index has been in a long-term "structural downtrend," and a weaker dollar could create a more favorable investment environment for assets like Bitcoin. Markets will continue to monitor the White House's further remarks on the bond market, shifts in geopolitical conditions, and U.S. initial jobless claims data today, as these factors could influence Treasury yields and market liquidity expectations.

Self-custody confidence permanently changed, Strive VP says Bitcoin custody may enter its next phase
Strive Vice President Joe Burnett posted on X, saying that recent weeks may be among the worst in Bitcoin's history. Many people purchased approved hardware wallets, generated seed phrases offline, and followed established best practices, yet still lost significant amounts of Bitcoin due to a vulnerability affecting seed phrases generated by COLDCARDwallet since March 2021. The vulnerability went undetected for over five years. Joe Burnett stated this will permanently change people's confidence in self-custody. Self-custody will still exist, but it has been permanently changed. For those who want to directly control large amounts of Bitcoin, the standard should be multi-vendor multisignature, with keys independently generated using different hardware and different software, and stored in different physical locations. If they cannot accept this approach, they should use institutional-grade custodians. Joe Burnett noted that the current wave of Bitcoin adoption is occurring through ETFs, treasury companies, and institutional custodians, primarily driven by people who never intended to become experts in private key generation, hardware security, firmware, backups, inheritance planning, and physical storage. A single key generated by one hardware wallet protecting large amounts of Bitcoin carries excessively high concentration risk. Joe Burnett also said that institutional custody may ultimately lead to too much Bitcoin being concentrated in the hands of large companies, creating risks of censorship, seizure, and confiscation. However, Bitcoin's portability and settlement properties provide a critical counterbalance — users can create a wallet and request the custodian to send Bitcoin, shifting from counterparty risk to direct ownership within minutes. Joe Burnett believes that as long as Bitcoin itself remains secure, the failure of one custody method does not negate the underlying monetary system, but rather forces the market to develop better tools, stronger standards, and more resilient custody architectures. This week may ultimately mark the end of one era of Bitcoin custody and the beginning of the next wave of Bitcoin adoption.
