Strategy Board Approves $1.25B BTC Sale Plan; Focus Shifts to Capital Optimization

Strategy launched a "Digital Credit Capital Framework" and received board approval to sell up to $1.25 billion in BTC to replenish cash reserves, pay for preferred products (e.g., STRC), or repurchase common stock. Executive Chairman Michael Saylor emphasized that Bitcoin remains the primary treasury reserve asset, but the Digital Credit framework requires liquidity, discipline, and active capital management. No new BTC purchase plan was disclosed, and the USD Reserve has been restored to $2.25 billion, covering roughly 1.5 years of preferred dividend payments. Analysts view this as a shift from aggressive balance sheet expansion to fine-tuning capital structure using crypto assets.
