## Resource

Strive ($ASST) just launched the first daily Bitcoin dividend in stock market history — paying a 13% yield through $SATA. Chief Risk Officer Jeff Walton breaks down how Strive (now the 8th largest Bitcoin treasury company) is competing with Michael Saylor's Strategy, why he bet his entire savings on MSTR, and how digital credit is reshaping fixed income forever. We discuss: • How Strive beat Strategy to the first-ever daily Bitcoin dividend • Where the 13% yield actually comes from (and why it's not a Ponzi) • The insurance industry analogy that explains Bitcoin treasury risk • Jeff's personal story: from the 2008 crash to his 2,000% MSTR options trade • Why traditional junk bonds and private credit are becoming obsolete Follow Jeff Walton https://x.com/PunterJeff ---- Order Natalie's new book "Bitcoin is For Everyone," a simple introduction to Bitcoin and what's broken in our current financial system: https://amzn.to/3WzFzfU --- Coin Stories is powered by Gemini.
