Strive Adds 2,500 Bitcoin, Tops 19,000 BTC Just After Strategy Sells

Strive (ASST) scooped up 2,500 bitcoin for roughly $185.2 million at an average price of $74,092 per coin, according to an 8-K filing. That's a cooler entry than the company's last disclosed buy of 1,109 BTC at $76,989 on May 22, suggesting Strive caught the dip that dragged bitcoin from above $74,000 last week to around $70,800 by Tuesday morning, per CoinDesk data. The firm reported a quarter-to-date BTC yield of 23.0% and year-to-date yield of 36.7%, with an amplification ratio of 57.0%. Strive also said it bulked up cash reserves to keep an 18-month dividend reserve intact.

The purchase brings Strive's total stack to 19,000 BTC, data shows, locking in its spot in the top 10 of publicly traded corporate holders. The filing lands a day after peer and largest corporate bitcoin holder Strategy (MSTR) disclosed its first publicized sale of 32 bitcoin for $2.5 million at an average price of $77,135 on Monday, which helped spark a selloff in BTC and the broader crypto market since. Meanwhile, Benchmark analyst Mark Palmer kicked off coverage on Strive with a Buy rating and a $32 price target on Tuesday, implying roughly 93% upside even after the company's Class A shares slid 3.59% to $16.58 in pre-market trading.
