Avik Roy of Strive Asset Management compared the STRC preferred stock created by Michael Saylor to "discovering oil," calling it a breakthrough product design that has opened up a scalable new financing channel for bitcoin accumulation. Roy believes that STRC, while maintaining a price close to $100, also delivers a yield close to 12%, thereby attracting traditional capital seeking returns and effectively leveraging bitcoin as a "virus" to "infect traditional finance." He pointed out that the viability of this model depends on bitcoin's continued appreciation, and emphasized that within the recent three weeks, STRC sales provided approximately $1.56 billion in funding for MicroStrategy's purchase of tens of thousands of bitcoin.
