MicroStrategy signals more Bitcoin buys, hikes STRC dividend to 11.25%

MicroStrategy signaled on Sunday it may buy more Bitcoin and raised the dividend on its Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock (STRC) by 25 basis points to 11.25% for February 2026, posting a graphic captioned “More Orange” on X, Executive Chairman Michael Saylor shared.

The enterprise software firm-turned-Bitcoin treasury said its holdings total 712,647 BTC, worth about $55 billion, which were acquired at an average cost of $76,037 per coin.

With BTC trading at roughly $78,000 — a retracement from six-figure highs last autumn — MicroStrategy’s unrealized gains have narrowed to less than 3% as its massive position sits only slightly above its average cost.

STRC is a variable-rate security in a fixed-income suite the company uses to raise capital; MicroStrategy said STRC sales alone have funded the purchase of over 27,000 BTC since the product’s November debut.

Market critics warn the higher 11.25% payout could squeeze the firm’s cash flow if Bitcoin stalls or falls below its $76,000 breakeven, while MicroStrategy appears undeterred and still has billions in available capacity under its at-the-market offerings, suggesting further purchases remain possible.
