The company said it will keep buying back stock while the share price trades below net asset value.

Nasdaq-listed Silvia Sells 124 BTC, Has Bought Back 14.5% of Shares
This is a notable signal that a listed bitcoin holder sees its own equity as the cheaper asset: selling BTC to fund buybacks below NAV effectively transfers value from sellers to remaining holders, but it also shrinks the bitcoin treasury that anchors the NAV. The dynamic matters for the widening cohort of listed crypto vehicles trading at discounts, where management teams face the same choice between defending the share price and accumulating coins. Whether the discount narrows enough to make buybacks stop, and whether other treasury companies copy the playbook, is the open question.
