According to Bloomberg, Strategy founder Michael Saylor is attempting to transform Strategy from a pure Bitcoin treasury company into a 'digital lending' issuer. Using the company's Bitcoin holdings as a capital base, they aim to leave the high volatility exposure of BTC more to MSTR common stock investors by adjusting dividend rates, issuing and repurchasing STRC, and managing USD reserves, while providing STRC holders with relatively low-volatility USD cash returns. Currently, STRC offers an annualized dividend yield of about 12%. Strategy has also proposed switching to daily accrued dividends, with payouts on the next business day after declaration, to further reduce price volatility and improve liquidity. Saylor noted that over the past 20 months, the 'digital lending' market has grown from zero to approximately $16 billion. https://www.(wublock123.com)/news/bloomberg-michael-saylor-strategy-to-digital-lending-issuer-69252
