The strategy involves purchasing common stock
Decisions about purchasing Bitcoin do not depend on the current market price, but rather on Strategy’s ability to raise funds.
The latest purchase is the smallest in April, after the previous week’s addition 34,164 Bitcointhe third largest acquisition in history.
The primary reason for the smaller purchase was that the strategy had to rely on MSTR common stock for the acquisition. The strategy raised and disbursed $255 million, and issued an additional 1.45 million shares of MSTR.
Following the recent acquisition, MSTR traded near a one-month high of $171.02. MSTR returned to acting as a multiplier for BTC, as the leading coin recovered and settled above $77,000. In the short term, MSTR dilution is not seen as a problem, as long as the strategy keeps its rules of the game alive.
The strategy skips a week of STRC increases
The recent weekly purchase shows that the strategy is still going through a period of unreliable increases. The main attraction of STRC is the guaranteed return of 11.5%, paid monthly. As a result, buyers are congregating around the ex-dividend date, with demand slowing for the rest of the month.
The STRC may also have a short-term impact on Bitcoin prices, as last month’s purchases caused a mid-month Bitcoin pump.
STRC is still trading within the price range of new sales. On Monday, Strategy sold $9 million worth of STRC. Preferred stocks have seen a slowdown in volume but are awaiting recovery in the coming months. The strategy will offer bi-weekly payouts to facilitate interest in purchasing.
As the strategy indicated it would still rely on STRC, the rules of the game now depend on positive BTC returns. Without cash reserves or other inflows, preferred stock has an ever greater burden of repayment over the years.
STRC offers one of the highest rates of return, as the strategy has a two-year runway to cover dividends. The company has stopped selling other preferred shares and is focusing on one product, with $19.4 billion remaining to be raised.
In recent months, STRC has seen 2-3% volatility, and remains a relatively predictable market. The risk-free preferred stock rate is 3.7%According to own strategy data.
The risk-free rate of return is based on a theoretical measure of expected returns without the risk of loss. However, the risk of a BTC bear market keeps payouts higher to attract investors looking for reliable passive income.
