Summary

Strive just dropped a major update, and it could have huge implications for SATA, STRC, MSTR, and the broader Bitcoin treasury trade.In this episode, we break down Strive’s latest moves, including the SATA dividend increase, the tighter 99–101 trading range, the new guidance not to sell below $100, and the company’s purchase of 179 more Bitcoin. But the biggest surprise may be Strive putting $50 million of MSTR’s STRC on its balance sheet. Why does that matter?
