Vivek Ramaswamy’s Strive (ASST) has significantly increased its bitcoin holdings, adding 317 BTC to reach a total of 13,627.9 as of March 17th, propelling the company into the top 10 public bitcoin treasury holders. This growth is fueled by various funding sources, including initial PIPE proceeds, the acquisition of Semler Scientific, and capital markets activity. The company utilizes structured finance instruments like its Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock (SATA) to fund its bitcoin strategy. While Strive reported a substantial net loss of $393.6 million in Q4 2025, largely attributed to declines in bitcoin’s fair value, it also showcased a “Bitcoin Yield” of 22.2% in the same period. CEO Matthew Cole emphasizes a focus on scaling their digital credit strategy alongside continued bitcoin accumulation, aiming for long-term returns for stockholders.
