STRIVE EYES MASSIVE 75,000 BITCOIN BUY FROM MT. GOX CLAIMS
- Strive Enterprises, led by Vivek Ramaswamy, plans to acquire up to 75,000 Bitcoins tied to Mt. Gox bankruptcy claims. This comes via a strategic partnership with 117 Castell Advisory Group.
Key Details:
- Mt. Gox, once the largest Bitcoin exchange, collapsed in 2014.
Since then, creditors have been locked in a decade-long wait to recover lost BTC.
- Now, some of those claims—legally settled but unpaid—are becoming available for purchase.
- Strive aims to buy these distressed Bitcoin claims below market price, offering investors discounted BTC exposure.
- The plan is to boost Strive’s Bitcoin-per-share metric and generate long-term returns outperforming direct BTC holding.
- Strive would join ranks with MicroStrategy and others by buying Bitcoin claims at a discount.
Risk Driven Approach:
- Strive targets legally resolved but undistributed claims, mainly the Mt. Gox estate's 75,000 BTC, and possibly similar sources. The filing highlights this as part of a value-driven, risk-managed approach.
- Strive recently merged with Asset Entities Inc., aiming to boost scale and market access.
- The merger is expected to accelerate Strive’s capacity to buy large Bitcoin quantities, supporting its goal to build a substantial BTC treasury.
- Despite the plan’s promise, uncertainties remain. Mt. Gox is still reimbursing creditors, and the mechanics of acquiring these claims at a discount aren’t fully clear.
