Strategic Financing Behind Recent Bitcoin Acquisitions
The company’s recent bitcoin acquisitions, the largest since July, were financed through a combination of methods. A portion of the funds came from the sale of perpetual preferred stock, including STRK, STRF, STRC, and STRD, while the remainder was funded by the company’s issuance of its first-ever euro-denominated preferred stock, STRE.
The combined value of these preferred stock programs is substantial, amounting to $21 billion for STRK, $4.2 billion for STRF, $2.1 billion for STRC, and $4.2 billion for STRD. These efforts are part of Bitcoin Treasury Company’s broader “42/42” plan, which aims to raise a total of $84 billion by 2027 to fund future bitcoin acquisitions.
Interestingly, the company continues to sell shares of its STRK, STRF, and STRC stock. Last week, Bitcoin Treasury Company sold 5,513 STRK shares for around $500,000, leaving $20.34 billion worth of STRK shares available for future sale.
The company also sold a significant number of STRF and STRC shares, with remaining issuance programs valued at $1.64 billion and $4.04 billion, respectively. However, no shares of the company’s Class A common stock or perpetual Stride preferred stock were sold during this period.
Strong Outlook on Bitcoin Holdings Despite Risks
Bitcoin Treasury Company’s aggressive approach toward acquiring bitcoin highlights its ongoing bullish stance on the cryptocurrency. While the company’s bitcoin holdings represent a substantial share of the total bitcoin supply, it remains exposed to market fluctuations and potential risks related to the volatility of the asset.
The latest funding mechanisms through stock sales reflect a growing trend among firms to tap into alternative financing routes to accumulate bitcoin without directly using traditional capital.
By continually expanding its holdings, Bitcoin Treasury Company is cementing its place as one of the largest institutional holders of Bitcoin globally.
