Is Another Piece of Michael Saylor’s BTC Strategy Starting to Fall Into Place?

CoinDesk
Strategy's perpetual preferred share, STRC, trading at par enables the company to use its at-the-market program to acquire more Bitcoin.

Summary

Strategy (MSTR) Executive Chairman Michael Saylor's plan to acquire more Bitcoin appears to be advancing as its perpetual preferred share, STRC, reached a record high of $100.10, trading at par value. This milestone allows Strategy to utilize its at-the-market (ATM) offering against STRC to purchase more Bitcoin, a capability that was previously on hold. Strategy had previously increased STRC's dividend rate from 9% to help push the price toward the $100 par value. The company has $4.2 billion in available share issuance capacity and has already used ATM sales on other preferred products and common stock to fund Bitcoin purchases. For Saylor to continue accumulating Bitcoin in a non-dilutive manner, the successful issuance of perpetual preferred stock is crucial, especially as MSTR common shares have declined.
