However, the filing does not provide details on individual purchase orders or specific execution times during the period from August 17 to August 21.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The transaction took place right before bitcoin extended its rally <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/nftevening.com\/3b-crypto-shorts-wiped-out-bitcoin-surges-80k\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">toward the $80,000<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> region. BTC rose 22.7% in the week ending August 23, closing the week at $77,387 after gaining $14,264.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This move further reinforces how Strive positions itself as a public company under the Bitcoin treasury model. In the strategy description on its investor relations page, the company stated that it will use bitcoin as a \u201churdle rate\u201d for capital allocation, meaning financial decisions are evaluated against the ability to accumulate value in BTC.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to bitcoin, the filing also updated several related asset items. Strive\u2019s cash and cash equivalents increased from $154.8 million to $171.9 million, while the company maintained 505,000 STRC shares of Strategy Inc., with their fair value increasing from $47.9 million to $48.6 million.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bitcoin-per-Share_Rises_Despite_New_Issuance\"\/><b>Bitcoin-per-Share Rises Despite New Issuance<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"\/><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The new purchase occurred at the same time Strive continued to expand its outstanding shares, placing focus on bitcoin-per-share, a metric closely watched within the Bitcoin treasury peer group.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to figures in the filing, Strive\u2019s effective common shares outstanding increased from 86.04 million to 89.68 million during the period ending August 21, representing an increase of about 4.2%. During the same period, <\/span><b>bitcoin holdings rose 5.5%<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, from 20,246 BTC to 21,356 BTC.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That helped BTC per effective common share increase by approximately 1.2%. Under the Bitcoin treasury model, this metric indicates whether raising capital and acquiring additional bitcoin increases exposure per share of common stock.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strive also reported that assumed fully diluted shares rose to 92.95 million from 89.30 million a week earlier. <\/span><b>SATA<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> preferred stock outstanding increased by 441,313 shares to 8.27 million, indicating that the company continues to rely on capital markets to expand its balance sheet while continuing to accumulate BTC.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Strive_Moves_Deeper_Into_the_Bitcoin_Treasury_Pack\"\/><b>Strive Moves Deeper Into the Bitcoin Treasury Pack<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"\/><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Following the latest transaction, Strive now holds more than 0.1% of Bitcoin\u2019s maximum supply. The 21,356 BTC amount is equivalent to approximately 0.102% of the fixed 21 million BTC total supply, aligning with the company\u2019s claim that it owns more than 1 out of every 1,000 bitcoin that could ever exist.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to data from Bitcoin Treasuries, Strive is the seventh-largest public company holding bitcoin as of August 24, with its BTC holdings valued at approximately<\/span><b> $1.7 billion<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The platform also estimates Strive\u2019s enterprise value mNAV at around 1.32x, a metric commonly used to compare a company\u2019s enterprise value to the value of its bitcoin holdings.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_162838\" style=\"width: 2636px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-162838\" class=\"size-full wp-image-162838\" src=\"https:\/\/nftevening.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-25-at-02.34.31.png\" alt=\"Strive Bitcoin Treasury.\" width=\"2626\" height=\"1388\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-162838\" class=\"lazyload size-full wp-image-162838\" src=\"https:\/\/nftevening.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-25-at-02.34.31.png\" alt=\"Strive Bitcoin Treasury.\" width=\"2626\" height=\"1388\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-162838\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Strive Bitcoin Treasury.

Within this group, investors typically track the rate of BTC accumulation, access to capital markets, and the premium or discount relative to the value of bitcoin holdings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The additional purchase also places Strive squarely at the center of the wave of Bitcoin treasury stocks, as the market responds more strongly to companies with direct BTC exposure. For Strive, following the August 24 filing, it is not just about its holdings exceeding 21,000 BTC, but also its ability to continue raising capital while the peer group\u2019s premium remains heavily dependent on bitcoin prices and investor confidence in the long-term accumulation strategy.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/nftevening.com\/strive-buys-1110-bitcoin-lifting-treasury-21356-btc\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=strive-buys-1110-bitcoin-lifting-treasury-21356-btc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Strive, Inc. purchased an additional 1,110 Bitcoin between August 17 and August 21, bringing its total holdings to 21,356 BTC, according to a Form 8-K filing submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 24.
