Strategy’s STRC Steals the Show, the New Frontier of Crypto Stocks?

Jakarta, Pintu News – STRC, a preferred stock owned by the company Strategy, is now making headlines in the capital market. Demand for the shares backed by Bitcoin (BTC) has soared, as institutional and individual investors have shown increased interest.

This phenomenon comes amid speculation that Michael Saylor’s company has just bought more than 1,000 Bitcoin (BTC) in the past week. Strategy’s on-market share sale (ATM) program is strongly suspected to be one of the main drivers of STRC’s surge in demand.

STRC Outperforms Other Preferred Stocks, Trading Volume Tops $296 Million

Michael Saylor, the main man behind Strategy, announced via the X platform that STRC is now the most liquid preferred stock this month. STRC’s average daily trading volume reached $296,000,000, far surpassing other preferred stocks such as BA, KKR, and FOUR which only recorded volumes of $35,800,000, $33,500,000, and $27,600,000 respectively.

In fact, STRC also outperformed other Strategy preferred stocks such as STRK, STRF, and STRD whose daily volume only ranged from $14,400,000 to $18,800,000. The high interest in STRC cannot be separated from the 11.50% dividend yield offered.

This has attracted many institutional investors to allocate their funds to STRC, including other Bitcoin (BTC) treasury companies such as Strive. Strive even allocated $50,000,000 or more than a third of the company’s cash to STRC, citing strong yields and deep liquidity. Strive’s CEO, Matt Cole, emphasized that this move is more profitable than just holding cash that earns low interest.

STRC is the main driver of Bitcoin Strategy accumulation

STRC is now an important part of Strategy’s Bitcoin (BTC) accumulation strategy. In the past week, Strategy managed to buy 17,994 Bitcoin (BTC) worth $1.28 billion. The funds for these purchases mostly came from the sale of 3.8 million STRC shares, which generated $377,100,000 in fresh funds.

With this strategy, Strategy was able to strengthen its position as one of the largest Bitcoin (BTC) holders in the world. Data from STRC.live estimates that Strategy could have bought up to 11,042.21 Bitcoin (BTC) this week just from the sale of STRC shares. If this prediction is correct, it will set a new record in the history of Bitcoin (BTC) purchases by the company.

Previously, the $377,100,000 raised last week had been used to purchase 5,315 Bitcoin (BTC), becoming the largest purchase this year from STRC proceeds. Meanwhile, Polymarket data shows a 98% chance that Strategy will announce the purchase of more than 1,000 Bitcoin (BTC) before March 16.

Large Institutions Flock to STRC, Prices Remain Stable

Besides Strive, a number of large institutional investors such as Prevalon Energy, Anchorage Digital, and OranjeBTC have also announced allocations to STRC. Strategy’s CEO, Phong Le, highlighted the performance of STRC shares which in the last 10 days have been trading at par value of $100 with a more than 5-fold jump in trading volume.

Despite dipping slightly below $100 and now sitting at $99.75, STRC’s daily trading volume remains high at $298,000,000, surpassing its daily average. Price stability and high liquidity are the main attractions for large investors to enter STRC.

With more and more institutions allocating funds to STRC, the preferred stock ecosystem is getting stronger and is believed to be able to provide optimal returns. This also strengthens Strategy’s position as a pioneer in combining capital market instruments with crypto assets such as Bitcoin (BTC). STRC’s success in becoming the most liquid stock proves that innovations in the digital finance sector are increasingly in demand.
