Strategy Potentially Plans to Sell Bitcoin to Pay Stock Dividends
The world's largest Bitcoin treasury company, Strategy ($MSTR), has announced the possibility of selling some of its Bitcoin assets to fund preferred stock dividends (STRC). In its Q1 2026 financial report released on Tuesday night (5/5) local time, Michael Saylor revealed this plan as a step to familiarize the market with the company's selling activities for financing efficiency.
Strategy CEO, Phong Le, clarified that Bitcoin sales will only be made if it benefits the company, such as for tax advantages or increasing Bitcoin value per share. Although there are tactical sale plans, Le emphasized that Strategy remains committed to being a long-term net Bitcoin acquirer to strengthen the company's balance sheet.
Currently, Strategy is recorded to manage Bitcoin assets worth $66.6 billion with annual dividend and interest costs reaching $1.48 billion. The company has also set aside a cash reserve of $2.25 billion to ensure all financing obligations are met without diluting MSTR shareholders' value amid fluctuations in the digital asset market capitalization.
