Strive has acquired an additional 1,109 BTC for approximately $85.4 million, paying an average cost of about $76,988 per bitcoin. The purchase lifts the company’s total Bitcoin holdings to 16,500 BTC, extending one of the fastest corporate accumulation runs among publicly traded Bitcoin treasury firms.
The latest snapshot puts Strive’s quarter-to-date BTC Yield at 11.0% and year-to-date BTC Yield at 23.4%. Its amplification ratio now stands at 45.2%, keeping attention on how the company is using preferred equity, common equity and balance-sheet structure to increase Bitcoin exposure per share.
Strive’s model has become one of the more closely watched Strategy-style treasury plays. Its Bitcoin accumulation has been tied directly to ASST common equity and SATA preferred stock, while the company has positioned Bitcoin as its hurdle rate for capital allocation. Earlier coverage of Strive’s SATA preferred stock trading volume showed how the preferred-equity channel became central to the company’s funding story.
SATA Financing Stays At The Center
The new BTC purchase lands shortly after Strive said SATA dividends will move to daily business-day paymentsbeginning June 16, with the annualized dividend rate maintained at 13.00%. That structure is important because SATA gives Strive a recurring capital-markets product linked to investor demand for income, while the company uses its balance sheet to pursue Bitcoin accumulation.
Strive has also stressed that its Bitcoin Yield metric is not a traditional investment yield. It measures the percentage change in Bitcoin per share over a period, which makes it useful for tracking treasury accretion but not the same as cash income, return on investment, or a direct claim on the Bitcoin held by the company.
The latest holdings total also places Strive higher in the public-company Bitcoin treasury race. BitcoinTreasuries lists Strive at 16,500 BTC as of May 26, putting it just ahead of Coinbase’s listed 16,492 BTC position in that snapshot.
Corporate Bitcoin Race Keeps Moving
Strive’s latest buy comes while corporate Bitcoin accumulation remains a major market theme. Strategy continues to dominate the category after its recent 24,869 BTC purchase, while broader treasury flows remain active even when larger names pause weekly buying. Recent coverage of four public firms adding 612 BTC showed that smaller treasury companies are still expanding exposure below Strategy’s scale.
For Strive, the immediate market focus stays on three numbers: BTC holdings, SATA demand and the amplification ratio. The company’s next phase will depend on whether its preferred-equity structure can keep funding Bitcoin purchases without adding the type of leverage pressure that has made corporate crypto treasuries more closely watched during periods of Bitcoin volatility.
