Company
Bitcoin treasury company led by Strike founder Jack Mallers and backed by Tether, Bitfinex and SoftBank; one of the largest public corporate holders of bitcoin.
Strive bought 2,822 bitcoin at about $83,266 each, lifting its treasury to 35,595 BTC, 18 more than MARA's 35,577. At $82,000 that margin is worth about $1.5 million, and Strategy still holds roughly 24 times as much.
Reality
Strive added 3,311 BTC in a week to reach 32,773 BTC, CEO Matt Cole said on October 13. He also reported about $208 million of warrant exercises, or roughly 7.7 million shares at the $27 strike if that is cash.

Strive bought 2,000 bitcoin for $169 million last week, its biggest buy in four months, while its $90,170 average cost sat above a price near $86,000. Its $284.7 million in cash also has to pay a roughly 13% preferred dividend, so further buying depends on selling more SATA.
Reality
Strive paid for last week's 469 bitcoin entirely with preferred stock. The coupon on its $1.04 billion of SATA is 13%, charged every business day, against a treasury of 25,000 coins. Warrants struck at $27 expire in mid-October.
