OG bitcoin treasury Strategy, which has five different preferred stocks, <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/news\/strategy-proposes-daily-dividends\">proposed<\/a> daily dividends for its products last month.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe successful, upsized IPO of SATS marks a critical milestone in our strategy to maximize long-term total returns for our common equity investors,\u201d Matt Cole, Chairman and CEO of Strive, said in a statement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Nasdaq-listed Strive also has <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/news\/strives-sata-swallows-entire-bitcoin\">SATA<\/a>, another preferred stock, which pays a variable dividend.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Strive debuted as an official bitcoin treasury last year and is now the fourth biggest company in the space.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Founded by former Ohio gubernatorial candidate and tech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, the company holds 36,818 BTC worth over $3 billion at today\u2019s prices. The company on Monday announced another bitcoin buy of 4,045 BTC between October 12 and 16.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In January 2026, it completed the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/news\/strive-recieves-yes-on-semler-acquisition\">acquisition<\/a> of Semler Scientific in an all-stock deal \u2014 the first instance of a publicly traded Bitcoin treasury company acquiring another such company.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like with other digital asset treasuries, the idea is that investors can get amplified returns from Strive\u2019s stock. The company buys bitcoin with equity, and maintains a debt-free balance sheet: no bonds, no credit lines, and no leveraged positions that could trigger forced liquidation in a downturn.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Strive is following in the footsteps of software company Strategy, which started buying bitcoin in 2020. Strategy is now the largest corporate holder of bitcoin, with 848,517 coins worth over $60 billion.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Its five preferred stocks are STRF, STRC, STRK, STRD, and STRE.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Strive\u2019s stock, ASST, was trading 4% higher on Tuesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This post <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/news\/strive-debuts-new-preferred-stock\">Bitcoin Treasury Strive Debuts New Preferred Stock With 15% Dividend\u00a0<\/a> first appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/\">Bitcoin Magazine<\/a> and is written by <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/authors\/mathewdisalvo\">Mathew Di Salvo<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin Magazine Bitcoin Treasury Strive Debuts New Preferred Stock With 15% Dividend\u00a0 Bitcoin treasury Strive\u2019s preferred stock, SATS, is now trading on the Nasdaq, according to the company.\u00a0 The stock debuted Tuesday and will pay a 15% dividend every business day, according to an announcement.\u00a0 Nasdaq-listed Strive said it closed its upsized initial public offering [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":241846,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-241845","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-discovery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/241845"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=241845"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/241845\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/241846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=241845"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=241845"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=241845"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
