With an annual yield of 9.5% – far exceeding the 0.1%-4% of traditional savings accounts – STRC is positioned as a smart alternative to money market funds.

#Saylor asserts: "This product is ideal for those who need stable income but do not want high risk."

Special feature: STRC has daily liquidity (traded on Nasdaq), has no maturity, and is backed by over 628,000 BTC from Strategy – worth $74 billion. According to the announcement, the company can pay dividends for 120 years, or at least 24 years even if the price of Bitcoin drops by 80%.

In Q2 2025, Strategy reported a record profit of $10 billion, thanks to the strong rise in Bitcoin price from $77,000 to over $111,000. This helps reinforce the reliability of STRC, especially in the context of the U.S. Government releasing a 150-page report supporting the crypto ecosystem.
