Strive Adds 1,107 BTC as Treasury Holdings Reach 27,462 Bitcoin
Strive now stands as the fifth-largest publicly traded bitcoin treasury firm, and CEO Matt Cole took to X on Monday to reveal the firm’s latest buy. “Strive acquired 1,107 BTC for $94.5M at an average cost of $85,396 per bitcoin, bringing total holdings to ₿27,462,” Cole wrote. In a Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the company explained that holdings rose from 26,355 BTC to 27,462 BTC following the purchase.
Cole further stated that “warrant exercises generated another $12.4M. Including those proceeds, 85% of total capital raised came from SATA.” The SATA ticker is Strive’s preferred stock, which has a design that is similar to Strategy’s STRC. The SEC filing shows that Strive’s cash and USD equivalents rose while the company bought bitcoin, jumping from $229.6 million to $248.8 million.
Moreover, while Strive has SATA, the company also holds 505,000 shares of Strategy Inc.’s Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock (STRC). With bitcoin prices standing around $83,300 per unit on Monday, Strive’s total stack was worth around $2.3 billion. The cost average Strive paid turns out to be around $80,862 per coin, which gives the company some breathing room in the realm of profitability.
