Strive, Inc. announced the closing of its initial public offering (IPO) of 2,000,000 shares of its Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock, which trades on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol SATA. The offering was priced at $80 per share.
The IPO was oversubscribed, from a targeted 1.25 million shares, showing positive investor demand despite Bitcoin (BTC) dipping below $100,000 in the week before the announcement on November 10. At the time of writing, the current market value of SATA on the Nasdaq is $90.60.
Strive’s Bitcoin Amplification Efforts
Strive has become the first Bitcoin treasury company to fund its Bitcoin amplification efforts exclusively through perpetual preferred equity. It follows Strategy as the second company to issue such a publicly traded security. This move shows the trend of leveraging established tools from traditional finance to structure capital for companies focused on digital assets.
The offering aims to create a “Bitcoin amplification toggle,” enabling Strive to accumulate additional Bitcoin through non-dilutive financing. Strive plans to build upon its current holding of 7,525 BTC and accrete value to its common equity shareholders (ASST). The SATA stock features a positive yield opportunity with a variable-rate cumulative dividend, initially set at 12% per annum, which is payable monthly.
Strive aims to manage the dividend and issuance rate with the goal of maintaining the stock’s trading price within a stated long-term range of $95 and $105 per share. The company expects the dividends to be classified as return of capital (ROC) dividends, which are intended to enhance the after-tax yield potential for investors.
Strive’s Journey So Far
Strive is known as the first publicly traded asset management Bitcoin treasury company (BTCTC). Its common stock, ASST, began trading publicly in September 2025. The SATA stock is the second major component of the company’s capital structure strategy, following an equity-only financing in September 2025 that was, at the time, the largest ever for a BTCTC.
The company’s subsidiary, Strive Asset Management, LLC, has grown to manage over $2 billion in assets since launching its first ETF in August 2022. As of November 10, 2025, Strive holds 7,525 BTC, including 1,567 BTC purchased at an average price of $103,315.
Future Implications
Strive’s leadership states that Bitcoin’s characteristics, i.e., scarcity, liquidity, and transparency, provide an “incredible foundation” for a disciplined, long-duration, risk-conscious yield instrument. The successful use of this non-dilutive perpetual preferred equity structure could establish a new blueprint for financing growth within the Bitcoin treasury industry.
The closing of the oversubscribed SATA IPO shows Strive’s ability to execute a capital strategy quickly, reinforcing its position as a leading BTCTC. By launching this perpetual preferred equity security, the company has secured a non-dilutive financial tool to further its strategy of Bitcoin accumulation.
