Strive, Inc. crossed a notable threshold on Wednesday, with its Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock (Nasdaq: SATA) estimated to have acquired around 490 bitcoin through the company’s at-the-market program — a figure that exceeds the roughly 450 BTC the Bitcoin network produces in an average day.
The milestone places Strive in rare company. With miners currently earning 3.125 BTC per block and roughly 144 blocks produced each day, the global Bitcoin network adds approximately 450 new coins to circulation every 24 hours at baseline — a rate set at the April 2024 halving and unchanged until the next halving, expected in 2028.
On Wednesday, Strive’s SATA program absorbed more than that entire daily issuance through a single equity instrument in a single session.
Wednesday’s Bitcoin for Corporation’s SATA Tracker dashboard showed roughly $66.9 million in total volume, a 13% yield, and 95% of volume above the $100 par threshold — the floor below which Strive’s board has directed management not to issue shares. At a 58% estimated capture rate, ATM proceeds reached approximately $35.3 million, with bitcoin spot at $74,956.
In the week ending May 24, SATA posted a weekly record of approximately 794 BTC acquired. Wednesday’s revised 475 BTC estimate now stands as the instrument’s second confirmed daily supply absorption event in eight days.
