Bitcoin2026-10-21 13:39:33Strive’s $700 Million SATS Preferred IPO Takes Center Stage in Jeff Walton Bitcoin DiscussionBitcoin Magazine has published a video segment featuring Jeff Walton, chief risk officer at Strive, focused on the latest update for the firm’s SATS preferred stock IPO and a broader discussion about where the next major wave of Bitcoin capital could come from. According to the program description, Strive raised $700 million for Bitcoin even as CCC high-yield credit spreads were widening, a point Walton used to frame the growing market for Bitcoin-backed preferred equity. The episode lays out a series of topics tied to capital formation and structured products. Walton discusses the upsized SATS offering, how far Strive may be able to push its amplification ratio, the distinction between SATS and SATA as fundraising tools, and the mechanics of Strive’s 18-month dividend reserve. The conversation also touches on surviving the longest Bitcoin bear market without access to capital, Strategy’s daily dividend vote, and STRC returning to par. Later chapters turn to what Walton describes as a "gold rush" of new capital pools chasing Bitcoin, fundraising during a period of widening high-yield credit spreads, and MSCI’s exclusion of Bitcoin treasury exposure alongside a parallel drawn with Vanguard.
