Michael Saylor’s company, Strategy, has announced $BTC an initial public offering (IPO) of 5 million shares of its new Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock, called STRC, priced at $100 per share. This IPO aims to raise approximately $500 million. The proceeds from this raise will primarily be used to buy more Bitcoin and cover general corporate expenses like working capital.

This feature makes it similar to a synthetic stablecoin with yield, designed to attract investment money (fiat currency) and convert it efficiently into Bitcoin holdings.$BTC
