#SaylorHintsAtMoreBTC
Strategy heeds the market this time: Up to $1.2 billion in Bitcoin could be sold
Amid recent price declines and ongoing criticism, Strategy delivered the message the market was waiting for this week. Instead of buying more Bitcoin, the company announced the creation of a Digital Credit Capital Plan. The company also increased its reserves to more than $2.5 billion.
Michael Saylor listened to the market this time and refrained from buying Bitcoin. Heeding expert criticism about the need to strengthen liquidity, the company increased its reserves from $1.4 billion to $2.55 billion. Strategy did not make any new Bitcoin purchases. This development triggered a 7% rise in Strategy's shares during pre-market trading.
Digital Credit Capital Plan introduced
The most significant part of the company's announcement is the Digital Credit Capital Plan. Under this new capital program, it is stated that the $2.55 billion reserve will be used exclusively for dividend and interest payments. Sufficient liquidity to cover at least 12 months of payments will also be maintained, ensuring the company retains its financial strength.
They could sell up to $1.25 billion in Bitcoin
As part of this plan, Strategy announced that they may sell Bitcoin—up to a limit of $1.25 billion—to strengthen their dollar reserves. In other words, if liquidity issues arise, BTC worth that amount could be sold. Such sales could also be used to fund dividend and interest payments.
$2 billion buyback program...
Strategy also indicated that they may conduct buybacks of up to $1 billion in STRC and other digital credit products, as well as up to $1 billion in MSTR shares. "Market disruption" was cited as the reason for this plan.
As is known, the company's MSTR shares had previously fallen to $82, while STRC shares fell to $73. STRC dividends increased, but…
Meanwhile, the yield on STRC shares was also raised from 11.5% to 12%; this is another move the market was eagerly awaiting. With the decline in share price, a yield increase was anticipated, and the magnitude of this yield increase has been the subject of significant debate.
