STRC BELOW $100 — SAYLOR HASN'T BOUGHT BTC VIA PREFERRED STOCK IN 2 WEEKS
STRC (Strategy's preferred stock) closed at $95.32 — 4.7% below the $100 ATM threshold where the program activates.
Here's how STRC connects to Saylor's BTC buys and why it matters:
HOW STRC FUNDS BITCOIN
STRC is Strategy's perpetual preferred stock. It has a key mechanism: when trading at or above $100, Strategy can activate the ATM (At-The-Market) program — selling new shares to raise capital, which goes directly into Bitcoin.
But right now, STRC is at $95.32. The ATM engine is PAUSED. No new BTC buys via STRC for 2 weeks.
THE NUMBERS
Total STRC raised since Jul 2025 IPO: $10.20B
Total BTC bought via STRC proceeds: 122,910 BTC
Biggest single week: Apr 12-18, $2.18B raised via STRC → ~29,253 BTC at $74K
Last STRC-driven buy: May 10-16, $1.95B raised → ~24,066 BTC at $81K
STRC engine has been silent since May 31.
THE CONNECTION (SIMPLIFIED)
When STRC trades > $100 → ATM active → Saylor raises capital → buys BTC
When STRC trades < $100 → ATM paused → no BTC buys from this source
That's exactly where we are now. The last 2 weeks show zero ATM volume above $100.
WHAT NEEDS TO CHANGE
For STRC to resume funding BTC purchases, the preferred stock needs to recover above $100. Historical data shows 82% of ex-dividend drops recovered within 14 trading days. Current streak: still in progress.
Meanwhile, Strategy still holds 843,706 BTC (~$61B) and can still buy via common stock (MSTR) or other instruments — but the STRC engine is currently offline.
