Strive buys 1,107 more BTC, lifting holdings to 27,462 as year-end ranking goal stays in focus

Strive added another 1,107 Bitcoin last week at an average purchase price of $85,396 per coin, spending about $94.5 million and taking its total holdings to 27,462 BTC, according to a Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday. The company remains the world’s fifth-largest publicly traded corporate Bitcoin holder. The latest purchase came in below the prior week’s 1,355 BTC, but the buying pace remains elevated. Funding was driven mainly by sales of SATA perpetual preferred stock and the exercise of outstanding warrants. SATA sales accounted for 85% of weekly fundraising, up from 57.7% a week earlier, while warrant exercises generated $12.4 million, down from $21.2 million. Strive CEO Matt Cole has said the company could aim to become the second-largest public company Bitcoin holder by the end of 2026, though the report noted that this is not his base-case assumption. To move past Twenty One’s current 43,514 BTC, Strive would need to acquire another 16,053 BTC. Assuming Twenty One does not add to its position before year-end, Strive would need to buy roughly 1,235 BTC per week over the remaining 13 full weeks.

Capital B CEO says Bitcoin is the only asset the U.S. government does not want to sell

Capital B CEO Alexandre Laizet said in an interview at BTCPrague that the company plans to keep buying Bitcoin in the fastest and most value-accretive way possible, then hold it for the long term. He said financial institutions and companies around the world are accelerating their adoption of Bitcoin, and added that the U.S. government has designated the Bitcoin held in its strategic reserve as an asset that will not be sold. Laizet also argued that because most global capital can only gain exposure through securities markets, listed companies are in a position to expand their Bitcoin holdings through equity and debt financing. In his view, that gives public companies a route to take part in the development of digital capital markets. The interview remarks were shared in a Techub News item and reposted by @WuBlockchain.

Sequans exits Bitcoin treasury strategy after selling final 314 BTC

Sequans Communications, a French semiconductor company, has sold its last 314 BTC, bringing its Bitcoin holdings down from a peak of more than 3,200 BTC to zero and ending the treasury strategy it launched in 2025. The company said the final sale followed the redemption of its convertible debt in May 2026. Chief executive Georges Karam said the Bitcoin sales were used to eliminate the company’s convertible debt and strengthen its balance sheet. Sequans now says it holds no crypto and has no outstanding debt other than government-backed research and development obligations. The company plans to refocus on its core businesses in cellular Internet of Things and software-defined radio. The report also places Sequans in a wider retreat from corporate Bitcoin treasury strategies. VanEck’s head of digital assets research, Matthew Sigel, said in late July that at least nine companies in 2026 had fully liquidated or abandoned such strategies, while several others reduced holdings. The article argues that debt-funded Bitcoin accumulation can become difficult to sustain in a downturn, especially when companies are forced to sell BTC at lower prices to meet fixed debt obligations.

Genius.fun draws attention with CZ repost as stock-paired meme model tests a path toward public-company ownership

Genius, an on-chain trading terminal backed by YZi Labs and advised by Changpeng Zhao, launched stock-paired meme token platform genius.fun on Sept. 17, quickly drawing market attention after Zhao reposted the announcement. By press time, the platform had seen 38 meme tokens "graduate," with Gstock reaching a peak market capitalization of $20 million before easing to around $16 million. Gstock is paired with BNCB, a stock token tied to CEA Industries (BNC), a U.S.-listed company described in the source as a BNB treasury play. What sets genius.fun apart from other stock-paired meme launchpads is its foundation model. Under that structure, part of trading fees flows into a treasury that accumulates stock tokens. According to the project, once holdings reach a sufficient scale, the foundation could hold real-world equity in a legal capacity and gain voting and dividend rights. Still, major questions remain unresolved. The project has not disclosed the threshold for conversion, the mechanism for turning stock tokens into real equity, or how governance rights would be exercised if the foundation, rather than the meme community, legally owns the assets. Those gaps leave the "community acquires a listed company" narrative unproven for now.
