Strategy’s daily dividend proposal puts Bitcoin funding back in investors’ hands

The @saylor account said Friday that Strategy wants to pay dividends daily on four of the preferred shares it uses in its Bitcoin financing strategy. The proposal would put cash in holders hands sooner without changing the securities economics at their current rates. Its value to Strategy depends on whether investors will pay more for that timing.　　Related Asset Bitcoin #1 BTC · $83,826.27 24-hour change: down 0.77% Loading price history… 24H Down 0.77% 7D Up 3.62% 30D Up 7.49%　　The hurdle differs across the four shares. At Thursdays close, before the proposal, STRF traded above $100 and STRC was close to it, while STRK and STRD were in the low $70s. Those prices are a trading baseline, not evidence that daily payment will lift demand or that Strategy could issue new shares at the same prices.　　According to the post, dividends on STRF, STRC, STRK and STRD would accrue every calendar day, including weekends and holidays, and be paid the next business day. It did not specify daily record dates, an effective date or the series-by-series approvals. Strategys August 31 dividend declaration still sets quarterly payments for STRF, STRK and STRD and twice-monthly payments for STRC.　　Related Company Strategy Business intelligence software　　A faster

MicroStrategy Has a New Proposal To Pay Its Investors Every Day

Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) is proposing daily dividends across STRF, STRC, STRK, and STRD. The company wants its preferred shareholders to earn cash income every calendar day, a model that is unusual in the US stock market.　　A dividend is simply money a company pays investors for owning its stock. Under MicroStrategys proposal, that income would build up every day, including weekends and holidays, with payment made on the next business day.　　The total return would stay the same. The change is mainly about how often investors receive it.　　Sponsored　　Sponsored　　Note: Preferred stock is a special type of company share designed mainly to pay investors regular income. Regular stock, like MSTR, gives investors more exposure to the companys gains and losses, so its price can move much more.　　STRC is Becoming an Income Product, Not a Bitcoin Stock　　STRC currently pays a 12% annual dividend on its $100 stated value. In simple terms, an investor holding one $100 share would receive around $12 a year at the current rate.　　Daily dividends would not increase that amount. They would spread the same income across much smaller, more frequent payments.　　Sponsored　　Sponsored　　Think of it like getting part of your monthly salary every working day instead of receiving one larger payment at the
