Bitcoin Magazine outlines accretion mechanics of Strive's SATS preferred stock
Bitcoin Magazine published an analysis of how Strive's newly issued SATS perpetual preferred stock could increase net Bitcoin per share if shares trade above their $100 stated amount. The article says SATS pays a fixed cumulative annual dividend of $15 per share, a 15% rate on the $100 stated amount, and gives a hypothetical of a $115 market price leading to $115 million in gross proceeds from a one-million-share offering against $100 million in preferred claims.
Only one publisher so far. Another independent outlet or an official source would raise it.

Claims and open questions
What sources claim
- Bitcoin Magazine described SATS as carrying a fixed annual dividend of $15 per share based on a $100 stated amount, junior to Strive's SATA preferred stock, with cumulative and potentially deferrable payments.
- Bitcoin Magazine outlined a hypothetical in which SATS trading at $115 and Strive issuing one million shares via an at-the-market offering would raise $115 million in gross proceeds while creating $100 million in preferred claims, leaving $15 million accretive to net Bitcoin per common share.
- Bitcoin Magazine stated that a 13% effective yield would imply a SATS market price of $115.38 and compared it with Strategy's STRD, which it said trades around $71, 29% below its $100 stated amount, with a fixed $10 annual dividend.
Still unresolved
- Has Strive issued any public statement or filing specifying how proceeds from SATS offerings would be allocated to Bitcoin purchases?
- What dividend declaration schedule and any deferral terms has Strive's board set for SATS beyond the fixed $15 annual rate?
