Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy, is gearing up for more Bitcoin acquisitions. Despite the current market downturn and macroeconomic challenges, the company aims to raise $21 billion. This move will support its Bitcoin investment strategy.
The funds will come from selling class A strike preferred stock. The company will use the money for various purposes, including potential Bitcoin buys. This plan is part of its “21/21” roadmap,aiming to invest $42 billion in BTC.
According to a recent filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the firm plans to sell STRK shares. This new stock type offers investors a perpetual dividend of 8%. It’s a flexible financial tool without a set maturity date. The company, led by Michael Saylor, already owns nearly 500,000 BTC, worth over $41 billion. It has spent about $33.1 billion on BTC so far.The goal is to strengthen its corporate operations and expand its crypto holdings.
STRK shares are designed to attract long-term investors. They can convert these shares into common stock under certain conditions. This strategy allows Strategy to keep buying BTC without time constraints. The company’s CEO believes in Bitcoin’s long-term potential, even as prices fluctuate.
STRK shares are unique. Strategy’s confidence in Bitcoin remains strong.
STRK shares offer an 8% perpetual dividend. They can be exchanged for common shares under specific conditions. Strategy can also buy back STRK if its value drops 25% below the initial price.
Despite a 2.1% drop in STRK last week, Strategy’s commitment to Bitcoin is unwavering. The company’s large BTC holdings reflect its belief in the cryptocurrency’s future.
