Strive (ASST) shares finished Thursday’s session at $17.70, marking a 5.8% increase after the firm revealed its transformation into a daily dividend payer while simultaneously eliminating all corporate debt in Q1 2026. After-hours activity pushed the stock up an additional 0.73%.

The organization announced that its Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock, trading under ticker SATA, will commence daily dividend distributions starting June 16. The current annualized dividend stands at 13%, financed through proceeds from Strive’s Bitcoin treasury operations.
<blockquote>
 According to CEO Matt Cole, SATA represents “the first listed security in the history of U.S. capital markets to pay cash dividends every single business day.” This represents a significant evolution beyond Strategy’s preferred stock offerings, which distribute payments bi-weekly.
</blockquote>
The strategy mirrors elements of the Michael Saylor approach — utilizing perpetual preferred stock to finance Bitcoin acquisitions — while advancing the model further. <a href="https://coincentral.com/trump-family-bought-coinbase-strategy-and-mara-shares-in-q1-heres-what-the-filing-shows/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Strategy</a> executive chairman Saylor praised the daily dividend structure as “impressive.”
These developments accompanied Q1 financial results revealing an unrealized net loss totaling $265.9 million. The company attributed this loss predominantly to depreciation in the fair market value of its Bitcoin portfolio, corresponding with Bitcoin’s 23% quarterly decline.
Neverthstanding the unrealized loss, the organization emphasized its improved balance sheet position. During Q1, Strive retired the outstanding balance on its long-term debt obligations and currently maintains no short-term or long-term liabilities.
<blockquote>
 “Today, Strive stands debt-free, with zero margin requirements, and zero encumbered Bitcoin,” the company stated.

Strive concluded Q1 holding 13,628 BTC. This total incorporates 5,048 BTC obtained through the Semler Scientific acquisition, which finalized during the quarter.
Subsequently, Strive accumulated an additional 1,381 BTC during Q2, elevating total holdings to 15,009 Bitcoin, representing approximately $1.22 billion in value as of May 12.
This positions Strive as the ninth-largest public <a href="https://coincentral.com/bitcoin-btc-price-clarity-act-vote-and-sp-500-record-push-btc-to-82000/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a> treasury corporation, trailing just behind Riot Platforms.
The company also revealed a $50.5 million investment in Strategy’s STRC preferred securities — a bitcoin-correlated financial instrument comparable to SATA that Strategy employs to fund its own Bitcoin acquisition program.
