Funding Strategy: Preferred Stock Offerings Fuel Growth To fund its latest Bitcoin accumulation, Strategy tapped into multiple at-the-market (ATM) offering programs, including its common stock (MSTR) and three distinct preferred share offerings: STRK (Strike), STRF (Strife), and STRD (Stride). Between July 7 and July 13, 2025, Strategy sold nearly 2 million shares across these instruments, raising a combined $472.3 million in net proceeds. The largest tranche came from the common stock ATM, which generated $330.9 million. The STRK preferred shares contributed $57.4 million, STRF added $44.4 million, and STRD rounded out the raise with $15.8 million. Each preferred share class offers annual dividends ranging from 8.00% to 10.00%, giving investors exposure to income-generating equity tied to Strategy’s long-term Bitcoin vision. These instruments also reflect Strategy’s financial creativity, offering scalable fundraising mechanisms without diluting common shareholders excessively. Transparent Reporting and Long-Term Positioning As part of its commitment to transparency, Strategy says it continues to maintain a publicly accessible dashboard at www.strategy.com , where it discloses real-time Bitcoin purchases, aggregate holdings, security market data, and key financial metrics. By integrating Bitcoin acquisition updates with structured equity offerings, Strategy has positioned itself as both a technology firm and a de facto Bitcoin ETF.

CZ reminded followers that after buying Bitcoin in 2014, it took three years to reach $1,000 again in January 2017, noting that today’s excitement over current highs will seem minimal in future years.
