Strategy or creation of largest single-day BTC purchase record? STRC trading volume surges or supports purchase of 1500 Bitcoin

March 13 News: A real-time tracking dashboard developed by the community shows that trading volume of STRC securities under Strategy is rapidly increasing, potentially providing the company’s largest single-day Bitcoin (BTC) purchase funding source in history. If the current trend continues, the BTC buy-in supported by STRC financing could approach 1,500 coins, sparking widespread market attention on institutional fund flows.

Data indicates that by 11 a.m. New York time, STRC trading volume had reached approximately 2.7 million shares, with all transaction prices staying near the “set amount” of $100 or above, with the daily trading range between $100 and $100.07. According to Strategy’s previously disclosed mechanism, when STRC’s price exceeds $100, the company may sell new shares via ATM (At-The-Market) offerings to fund Bitcoin purchases.

The tracking system assumes roughly 40% of the trading volume originates from Strategy’s own issuance. Based on this model, the company has sold over 1 million shares of STRC, with potential financing enough to buy about 1,500 BTC, and this is just within roughly 90 minutes of regular trading. Pre-market trading is also active, with over 700,000 shares of STRC traded, roughly equivalent to about 394 BTC in funding.

STRC is a high-yield security currently offering approximately 11.5% annual dividend yield, aiming to maintain a peg near $100. Its product positioning is similar to high-yield bonds, mainly marketed to retail investors with monthly dividend income, though risk factors are often hidden within detailed terms.

Recent trading activity has accelerated significantly. Data shows that within just 8 minutes of opening, STRC’s trading volume exceeded 1.2 million shares. Based on real-time estimates, the weekly BTC purchase support via STRC could continue to expand, with projections of approximately 1,863, 2,500, and 2,568 BTC on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday respectively, and over 2,500 BTC forecasted before 1 p.m. New York time on Thursday.

Reviewing official disclosures, Strategy submitted a document to U.S. securities regulators on March 9 indicating that the company purchased 17,994 BTC between March 2 and 8, 2026, with about 29.5% of the funds coming from STRC issuance, approximately 5,314 BTC, averaging about 1,063 BTC per day.

Notably, Strategy recently adjusted its ATM issuance agreement for STRC, allowing new agents to sell STRC during pre-market and after-hours trading, further expanding the financing window. Market participants believe this mechanism is gradually making STRC an important financing tool for Strategy’s ongoing Bitcoin purchases.

However, this strategy also involves cost pressures. Strategy needs to pay floating dividends of up to 11.5% per share and has repeatedly increased dividend levels to keep the stock price stable near $100. As the ex-dividend date approaches, the price of STRC remaining near key levels is seen as a natural market response.
