Strategy CEO: Will Only Sell Bitcoin Under Specific Circumstances Such as Dividend Payments or Tax Optimization

Odaily Odaily Strategy CEO Phong Le stated that the company will only sell Bitcoin under specific circumstances, including paying the 11.5% dividend on STRC preferred stock and conducting tax deferral or tax optimization arrangements.

He mentioned that the company will prioritize evaluating which method—selling Bitcoin or issuing shares—is more beneficial for improving the "Bitcoin per share" metric, and emphasized that BTC will only be sold when such operations create value for common shareholders. Previously, Michael Saylor had stated that the company "might sell some Bitcoin to pay dividends" in the future, sparking market attention.

As of now, Strategy holds 818,334 BTC, valued at over $66 billion. Phong Le believes that, given Bitcoin's current average daily trading volume of approximately $60 billion, the company's annual dividend payments of around $1 billion will not significantly impact market prices. (Cointelegraph)
