This was stated in the company’s filing of 13 October with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

During the reporting period, the total number of Strive Class A and Class B ordinary shares in circulation increased from 100.94 million to 110.39 million. Consequently, the expansion of the company’s cryptocurrency reserves was accompanied by an increase in its share capital.
The increase in corporate investments in Bitcoin reflects the development of investment strategies whereby public companies hold a significant portion of their financial reserves in digital assets. This model ensures that the value of a company’s cryptocurrency assets is directly linked to Bitcoin’s market dynamics, whilst at the same time creating additional risks due to the high volatility of its price.
Strive Inc. is an American public company headquartered in Dallas, Texas. The company pursues an investment strategy of accumulating Bitcoin and raising capital through the stock market. Its Class A ordinary shares are traded on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol ASST, whilst its preference shares are traded under the ticker symbol SATA.
