Despite growing criticism and online FUD, Saylor\u2019s brainchild Strategy continues to focus on BTC, but the new move is quite different.<\/p>\n
Instead of announcing a new bitcoin purchase, the firm\u2019s former CEO noted on X that the company has launched the Digital Credit Capital Framework to strengthen its digital credit, enhance liquidity, preserve long-term BTC exposure, and support long-term value creation.<\/p>\n
Saylor\u2019s first message reassured the public that the company has increased its USD reserve to $2.55 billion, which should cover the dividend payments for 17.4 months. The greenback stash can be used only for dividends and interest expense, and \u201cwill be maintained at a minimum of 12 months.\u201d<\/p>\n
Strategy has also established a BTC Monetization Program, which allows it to sell bitcoin to fund the USD reserve (with a cap of $1.25 billion), dividends and interest expenses, or to repurchase Digital Credit securities and MSTR under the applicable programs. If it indeed sells more bitcoin, then its dividend coverage rises to $3.8 billion \u2013 or 25.9 months of such payments.<\/p>\n
Strategy has also established repurchase programs for its Digital Credit securities of up to $1 billion of MSTR.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis will create flexibility to accretively buy back securities during market dislocations. Repurchases will not be funded from the USD reserve,\u201d said<\/a> Saylor.<\/p>\n In addition, STRC\u2019s dividend rate has been increased by 50 bps to 12%, effective for the July 2026 record date. Saylor said the company will continue to evaluate the rate monthly, as its corporate objective for Stretch remains to trade at $99-$100. Recall that STRC plummeted by 25% under its par value in the past few weeks.<\/p>\n Recall that Strategy and particularly its STRC stock have come under a lot of fire in recent weeks. The company sold a tiny portion of its BTC holdings by the end of May, and even though it has accumulated a lot more since, market observers claim that the firm has rattled the industry.<\/p>\n Critics have continuously attacked Saylor and his company, warning<\/a> that they might have to sell over 50,000 BTC in the next couple of years to cover some expenses or dividend payments.<\/p>\n CryptoQuant analysts suggested<\/a> that Strategy should halt its BTC purchases in favor of rebuilding its USD reserve. Although the company has not listened entirely to this advice, the last two announcements were more focused<\/a> on the USD reserve rather than the BTC stockpile.<\/p>\n The post Saylor\u2019s Strategy Responds to Critics With New Plan to Protect BTC Exposure<\/a> appeared first on CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Despite growing criticism and online FUD, Saylor\u2019s brainchild Strategy continues to focus on BTC, but the new move is quite different.
