At its annual meeting, Strategy shareholders voted on Monday to approve moving STRC's dividend payments from monthly to semi-monthly, the company said in a statement.
STRC, the biggest of Strategy's perpetual preferred stocks, is designed to trade near a $100 par value while paying a variable cash dividend. Strategy first proposed moving the dividend to every two weeks back in April.
"Paying dividends on STRC twice a month is designed to stabilize price, dampen cyclicality, drive liquidity, and grow demand for STRC, while giving STRC holders a faster reinvestment opportunity," said Strategy's President and CEO Phong Le in a statement.
STRC has bolstered Strategy's bitcoin acquisition strategy in 2026, with purchases rising from 4,467 BTC in January to 22,131 BTC in March and nearly 46,872 BTC in April, according to research and brokerage firm K33.
K33 cautioned that Strategy faces increasing dividend obligations over the long term as demand for STRC grows. But in the short term, Strategy's approach appears supportive of bitcoin, as the company buys meaningful blocks of BTC ahead of each dividend date, K33 added.
