Strive Announces Daily Dividends For SATA Amid Bitcoin Strategy
The Bitcoin treasury company announced that it will now pay dividends to shareholders on the previous business day and on a daily basis. It also has the annual dividend rate for SATA stock set at 13% by its board.
CEO Matthew Cole states: “SATA will be the first listed security in the history of U.S. capital markets to pay cash dividends every single Business Day, beginning June 16, 2026, at a current annualized rate of 13.00%. This is a true zero-to-one innovation.”
Moreover, in the quarter that ended on March 31, 2026, Strive acquired 6,001 Bitcoin. The acquisition of Semler Scientific, Inc. accounted for 5,048 BTC of purchases; and open-market purchases accounted for the other 953 BTC.
