Strategy Launches Bitcoin Monetization Program, Opens Opportunity to Sell $1.25 Billion Worth of BTC
Strategy officially announced a fundamental overhaul in their financial management. Through an official release titled Digital Credit Capital Framework on Monday (June 29), Michael Saylor's entity surprisingly confirmed the approval of the BTC Monetization Program. This policy officially gives the green light for the company to sell a portion of their Bitcoin reserves on the market. This step marks a monumental shift from the 'never sell' or HODL narrative that has been the company's main identity in the eyes of crypto investors.
The decision to sell Bitcoin is intended to fund a series of aggressive maneuvers in the capital market to maintain their equity stability. According to the document, Strategy targets selling up to $1.25 billion worth of BTC, equivalent to approximately 20,800 BTC or 2.5% of the total 847,363 BTC they hold to build a cash reserve. Additionally, this program also allows the sale of BTC to raise preferred stock dividends $STRC from 11.5% to 12%, and to execute an unlimited stock buyback program with a total value of $2 billion, split equally between common and preferred shares.
Michael Saylor emphasized that although Bitcoin remains the primary reserve asset, the credit instruments issued by the company now demand liquidity and more active capital management discipline. This change in Bitcoin's status from merely a savings asset to a supporting liquid operational instrument is expected to protect the company's equity value in the long term.
