Grayscale’s head of research says Strategy’s leveraged business model has come under pressure, and that pressure could make it harder for the company to keep adding Bitcoin to its holdings.

A Dividend Problem Taking Shape

Zach Pandl made the assessment Thursday after Strategy sold 32 Bitcoin — a tiny slice of its 843,706 BTC stockpile — triggering a wave of selling that has knocked Bitcoin down 16% since the transaction.

Strategy also offloaded $128 million in shares, and its stock has dropped nearly 13% to a two-month low of $126.

At the center of the concern is STRC, a variable-rate preferred equity instrument that Strategy designed to trade at $100 per share and pay an 11.5% dividend. It is now trading around $95 — below the target price — a sign that investors are demanding a higher return than the instrument currently offers.

If Strategy responds by raising the dividend to pull STRC back to par, cash obligations grow. Higher cash obligations could push the company toward selling more Bitcoin. More Bitcoin sales could weigh further on prices.

Pandl put it plainly: Strategy’s levered model is under pressure, and that has increased volatility for the Bitcoin market as a whole.

What Saylor’s First Sale Changed

Until this week, Strategy had operated under a strict buy-and-hold approach, treating Bitcoin accumulation as a one-way strategy. The sale of 32 BTC — however small — broke that pattern and shook confidence among investors who had built a bullish thesis around the assumption that Saylor would never sell.

Augustine Fan, a partner at crypto software firm SignalPlus, said markets are blaming the sales and STRC’s discount for driving the latest downturn, but added that even committed supporters are finding fewer reasons to stay structurally bullish.

All eyes, Fan said, are on how Saylor manages liquidity by balancing STRC dividend payments against Bitcoin holdings.

A Healthier Market Without The Concentration

Grayscale’s Pandl sees a broader upside to a potential shift away from concentrated, leveraged BTC holdings. Less Bitcoin sitting on the balance sheets of highly indebted companies, and more spread across diversified corporate holders, would benefit the Bitcoin ecosystem over the long run, he argued.

They say journalists never truly clock out. But for Christian, that's not just a metaphor, it's a lifestyle. By day, he navigates the ever-shifting tides of the cryptocurrency market, wielding words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher the jargon for the masses. When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn.

Read more

Christian's journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper. This early love for storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay win funded a months-long supply of doggie and kitty treats – a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later).

Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling - right up his alley!

So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he's one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks down this confusing stuff into bite-sized pieces, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill).

Think Christian's all work and no play? Not a chance! When he's not at his computer, you'll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who hit 120mph (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely rides along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair.

Speaking of chill, Christian's got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin’ helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better.

Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies.

Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects.

So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words – the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.
