Strategy announced the launch of a public offering to issue $250M in Series A Perpetual Stride preferred shares. The operation includes 2.5 million shares with a non-cumulative annual dividend of 10%, available to selected institutional and non-institutional investors. The goal is to fund new Bitcoin acquisitions and secure operational liquidity.
Strategy Edges Closer to 600,000 BTC
Yesterday, Strategy added 705 BTC for $75.1M, raising its total holdings to 580,955 BTC valued at over $60,000M. This move further consolidates its position as the corporation with the largest Bitcoin treasury worldwide. The offering will also allow Strategy to redeem all issued shares if the volume in circulation falls below 25% of the originally issued shares.
More companies are aligning with this strategy. Firms across the globe are incorporating Bitcoin into their portfolios as a store of value. In Hong Kong, Reitar Logtech Holdings is negotiating the creation of a 15,000 BTC treasury, equivalent to around $1,500M. The initiative seeks to strengthen its financial capacity and expand its presence in the Asian smart logistics markets.
Everyone Wants Cryptocurrencies
In Norway, Norwegian Block Exchange became the country’s first listed company to acquire Bitcoin for its balance sheet, starting with 6 BTC and planning to raise it to 10 BTC this month. Meanwhile, in Russia, Sberbank launched structured bonds tied to Bitcoin’s price, available exclusively to qualified investors in the over-the-counter market.
Corporate interest has also reached other digital assets. BTCS, a blockchain infrastructure specialist, added 1,000 ETH to its treasury, bringing its total to 13,500 ETH. The purchase supports its strategy to expand node operations and scalable blockchain services.
Meanwhile, edtech firm Classover is building a Solana treasury. The company acquired 6,472 SOL for $1.05M and plans to issue up to $500M in senior secured convertible notes. Nearly 80% of those funds will go toward expanding its SOL reserve, with an initial $11M injection about to close.
These moves confirm an increasingly evident trend: the acceleration of corporate projects integrating crypto assets as strategic financial tools, diversifying reserves and strengthening capital structures.
