Strategy’s 649,870 BTC stash implies a value 78% above MSTR’s price, flagging a rare historical undervaluation zone.

Strategy funded a new reserve from stock sales to cover at least 12 months of dividends as it boosts its Bitcoin stash to 650,000 coins amid market volatility. Michael Saylor’s Strategy, the world’s largest public Bitcoin holder, is creating a $1.44 billion US dollar reserve to support dividend payments on its preferred stock and interest on its outstanding debt. Strategy on Monday announced the establishment of a US dollar reserve funded through proceeds from the sale of Class A common stock under its at-the-market offering program. “Strategy’s current intention is to maintain a USD Reserve in an amount sufficient to fund at least twelve months of its dividends, and Strategy intends to strengthen the USD Reserve over time, with the goal of ultimately covering 24 months or more of its dividends,” the company said.

Strategy CEO Phong Le says Bitcoin would only be sold if the company’s stock falls below net asset value and funding options disappear, calling it a financial decision. Strategy would consider selling Bitcoin only if its stock falls below net asset value and the company loses access to fresh capital, CEO Phong Le said in a recent interview. Le told the What Bitcoin Did show that if Strategy’s multiple to net asset value (mNAV) were to slip under one and financing options dry up, unloading Bitcoin becomes “mathematically” justified to protect what he calls “Bitcoin yield per share.” However, he noted that the move would be a last resort, not a policy shift. “I would not want to be the company that sells Bitcoin,” he said, adding that financial discipline has to override emotion when markets turn hostile.

Phong Le says Strategy has no near-term debt maturity risk and plans to continue using convertibles and equity to grow its bitcoin position over time.

The financial services giant has filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission to launch a leveraged BTC financial product. Members of the Bitcoin community and supporters of Strategy, the largest corporate holder of BTC, are criticizing JPMorgan’s proposed Bitcoin-backed notes, accusing the bank of spreading fear, uncertainty and doubt about Strategy and other crypto treasury firms. JPMorgan’s notes are a leveraged investment product tied to the price of Bitcoin (BTC). The product tracks BTC but amplifies the outcome, giving holders 1.5 times the gains — or the losses — through December 2028. The notes are slated for a December 2025 launch, according to an SEC filing.  The move drew sharp criticism from the Bitcoin community, with many saying that JPMorgan is now a direct competitor to BTC treasury companies and has an incentive to marginalize companies like Strategy to promote its own structured financial product.

Strategy said it has a 70-year dividend runway even after Bitcoin’s slide, rolling out a new credit rating metric to ease fears over DAT liquidation risks. Michael Saylor’s Strategy is attempting to calm investor concerns about its balance sheet after the recent Bitcoin market downturn and a sharp pullback in digital asset treasury (DAT) stocks. Strategy, the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin (BTC) holder, has rolled out a new credit rating dashboard based on the company’s preferred stock notional value, and claims to have another 70 years’ worth of dividend payment runway to service its debt, even if Bitcoin’s price remains flat. “If $BTC drops to our $74K average cost basis, we still have 5.9x assets to convertible debt, which we refer to as the BTC Rating of our debt. At $25K BTC, it would be 2.0x,” said Strategy in a Tuesday X post. Read more

Strategy Inc. (formerly MicroStrategy) spent 2025 building the largest corporate Bitcoin reserve the public markets have ever financed, but the scale of that ambition ended up colliding with the logic of its own stock. What began as an aggressive accumulation strategy, powered by the company’s appetite for leverage and a willingness to dilute existing shareholders, […] The post Why Wall Street is blocking Strategy’s S&P 500 entry — even with its $56B Bitcoin empire appeared first on CryptoSlate.

Despite a steep drop in its share price, Strategy’s Bitcoin stack is in the green and it continues to outperform top tech equities over time. Update Nov. 24, 1:20 pm UTC: This article has been updated to add comments from Kyle Rodda, senior market analyst at Capital.com. Bitcoin investor Strategy is facing a rough stretch this year, prompting speculation that its high-conviction Bitcoin play is coming undone. A look beyond the one-year chart tells a different story. Google Finance data shows that Strategy (MSTR) stock is down almost 60% over the last year, and has declined by over 40% year-to-date (YTD). The stock traded near $300 in October, before dropping to about $170 at the time of writing. Read more

The tension erupted following news that Strategy and other crypto treasury companies would likely be excluded from major market indexes. The backlash against financial services company JP Morgan from the Bitcoin (BTC) community and supporters of BTC treasury company Strategy continued to swell on Sunday as calls to “boycott” JP Morgan grew. The anger from the Bitcoin community followed news that the MSCI, formerly Morgan Stanley Capital International, an index company that sets criteria for index inclusion, is likely to exclude crypto treasury companies from its indexes in January 2026. JP Morgan shared the MSCI news in a research note. “I just pulled $20 million from Chase and suing them for credit card malfeasance,” real estate investor and Bitcoin advocate Grant Cardone said in response to a call to boycott the financial services giant.

Strategy remains poised for an S&P 500 inclusion in 2025, as the world’s largest Bitcoin holder is unlikely to have to liquidate its holdings to service its debt. The recent crypto market correction has reignited questions about the durability of corporate Bitcoin treasury plays, but Matrixport researchers say the largest of them, Strategy, still appears on track for possible S&P 500 inclusion. Despite recurring doubts about whether Strategy’s business model can withstand deep drawdowns, analysts argue that a forced, large-scale liquidation by the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin (BTC) holder is not a “near-term risk,” according to a Wednesday research report by Matrixport. Instead, the real pressure from the recent correction is on the stockholders who bought the stock at an inflated net asset value (NAV), who are currently suffering the impact of the company’s NAV compression.

Strategy will add to its 640,000 Bitcoin holdings by continuing to buy amid a flash crash in BTC price, Michael Saylor said. Michael Saylor, executive chair of Strategy, denied reports that the company was offloading some of its Bitcoin amid a flash crash in the cryptocurrency’s price.
