TREE NEWS reports: Strategy, Strive and other bitcoin treasury companies have used preferred stock financing to buy 135,979 bitcoin since the start of 2025 through Oct. 5, more than 0.5% of bitcoin’s maximum supply, with the related preferred stock market at about $12 billion. Strategy spent $193 million repurchasing STRC and bought 267 bitcoin in its latest weekly report, raising its preferred stock repurchase authorization to $3 billion.
Bitcoin Treasury Firms Buy 135,979 BTC via Preferred Stock Financing
The scale here is the story: preferred stock has become a genuine funding channel for treasury-company accumulation, not a niche workaround, and the resulting market is now large enough to matter on its own. This ties bitcoin exposure to a layer of structured, yield-bearing instruments whose behavior under stress is largely untested. Strategy's buyback activity alongside fresh purchases suggests capital allocation is becoming more active, which cuts both ways for holders of that paper. Worth watching whether preferred issuance keeps pace with accumulation, and how these instruments trade if bitcoin's price moves sharply against the treasuries.
