Wu learned that Galaxy Research Head of Research Alex Thorn's latest analysis pointed out that Strategy launched a new digital credit capital framework this week. By establishing a dollar cash reserve policy, adjusting STRC dividends, authorizing up to $1 billion in preferred stock and common stock buybacks, and introducing a Bitcoin monetization mechanism, it effectively alleviated market concerns about its short-term liquidity, buying the company more time. However, the report believes that Strategy's long-term structural issues remain unresolved, and it will still need to address growing preferred stock dividends and pressure from approximately $6.7 billion in convertible bonds maturing between 2027 and 2028. The report also suggests that Strategy could explore conservatively lending out some Bitcoin or using option strategies to generate returns, rather than simply selling BTC, to reduce financing pressure.

Short-term liquidity has eased, but what about the long term? The pressure of preferred stock dividends combined with the maturity of convertible bonds makes this debt snowball grow bigger and bigger. Lending Bitcoin conservatively is indeed better than dumping it, but what if the price of the coin plummets and the collateral ratio blows up?

Strategy's move looks like it's buying itself some time - a combination of $1 billion in preferred shares and share buybacks can indeed provide a short-term breather. But with $6.7 billion in convertible bonds hanging over its head, relying solely on dividend adjustments and Bitcoin lending is just treating the symptoms, not the root cause - the structural hole remains.
