Strategy, the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin holder, has proposed a key change to its STRC preferred stock. The change is made to the dividend payments from monthly to semi-monthly to improve liquidity and stabilize the price.
Michael Saylor’s proposal was filed on April 17, and voting is expected to conclude by June 8.
Strategy’s Chairman and bitcoin supporter, Michael Saylor, stated that the proposed changes are meant to “stabilize price, dampen cyclicality, drive liquidity, and grow demand.”
Right now, STRC shareholders receive their dividend payments once a month. Strategy wants to change that to twice a month, thus investors would get paid every two weeks instead of waiting a full 30 days.
The annual dividend stays the same at 11.5%, no cut, no increase. Only the payment timing changes, from annual payout to smaller chunks.
Saylor says that getting paid more frequently means investors do not have to wait as long to reinvest their dividends. That reduces what is called “reinvestment lag,” which is the gap between receiving a payment and putting it back to work.
In an annocunemnt saylor has outlined the full roadmap, step by step:
Lastly, shareholders will need to vote to approve this amendment before any of it becomes official.
Recently, Coinpedia News reported that Bitcoin critic and gold advocate Peter Schiff has been vocal in his concerns about STRC, calling the stock’s overall structure “misleading to constitute fraud.”
He has warned that if dividends are ever cut or the stock price falls significantly, investors could find themselves filing lawsuits against the company.
His main concern was that the money from STRC is used to buy Bitcoin, and if Bitcoin falls, it may become hard to keep paying those dividends.
As of now, Strategy’s STRC stock has seen a slight rise and is trading around $99.21. This uptick comes as geopolitical tensions ease after Iran fully reopened the Strait of Hormuz, improving overall market sentiment.
At the same time, the bitcoin price also jumped to $78k, while other large-cap altcoins jumped by 6 to 10%.
