Michael Saylor Announces 10.5% STRC Monthly Dividends

Michael Saylor-led Bitcoin-focused firm Strategy has announced a 10.5% monthly dividend on its STRC stock, signaling confidence in its Bitcoin-backed financial structure. The move follows a positive Q3 report, where the company declared $3.9 billion in profits, a massive improvement from $432.6 million in losses recorded in Q3 2024.

The 10.5% dividend marks a 0.5% increase from last month’s 10.25% payout. During an interview with Mark Moss, CEO of Satsuma Technology Plc, a UK-based crypto and decentralized AI firm, in October, Saylor explained that STRC, MicroStrategy’s perpetual preferred stock is overcollateralized by its historical Bitcoin profits, to eliminate downside volatility.

The increase in dividend yield signals a more aggressive push to raise funds for more BTC purchase. Strategy currently sits on a total holdings of 640,808 BTC, with unrealized gains of $23.2 billion, according to SaylorTracker.com

Bitcoin Treasury Firms Shed $20B as Bitcoin Price Tumbles 8% in October

Bitcoin’s October close around $110,150 marked an 8% decline for the month, sparking a sharp selloff across Bitcoin treasury firms. Real-time data from The Block shows the aggregate market capitalization of publicly listed Bitcoin treasuries fell from $142.4 billion on October 1 to $123.6 billion by October 31, a staggering $18.8 billion haircut, representing a 13% decline, nearly double the drop in Bitcoin’s own price.

This depicts heightened traditional investors’ remaining sensitivity to Bitcoin’s volatility. Crypto-exposed stocks like Marathon Digital, Galaxy Digital, and Strategy all experienced double-digit stock declines for October.

Yet, the stock price downturn did not deter the buying frenzy. The total Bitcoin held by treasury firms increased from 800,710 BTC to 804,680 BTC, representing a rise of 3,970 BTC, worth approximately $437.8 million at the October closing price.

This countercyclical buying pattern reinforces institutional confidence in Bitcoin as a strategic treasury asset, despite frugal Fed talk  and geopolitically-charged crypto derivatives market turbulence in October.

Looking ahead, market-leader Strategy’s aggressive intent to raise liquidity for additional Bitcoin purchases could spur fresh entrants to keep up demand in November.

Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO

Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO

The post Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Aave DAO is gearing up for a significant overhaul by shutting down over 50% of underperforming L2 instances. It is also restructuring its governance framework and deploying over $100 million to boost GHO. This could be a pivotal moment that propels Aave back to the forefront of on-chain lending or sparks unprecedented controversy within the DeFi community. Sponsored Sponsored ACI Proposes Shutting Down 50% of L2s The “State of the Union” report by the Aave Chan Initiative (ACI) paints a candid picture. After a turbulent period in the DeFi market and internal challenges, Aave (AAVE) now leads in key metrics: TVL, revenue, market share, and borrowing volume. Aave’s annual revenue of $130 million surpasses the combined cash reserves of its competitors. Tokenomics improvements and the AAVE token buyback program have also contributed to the ecosystem’s growth. Aave global metrics. Source: Aave However, the ACI’s report also highlights several pain points. First, regarding the Layer-2 (L2) strategy. While Aave’s L2 strategy was once a key driver of success, it is no longer fit for purpose. Over half of Aave’s instances on L2s and alt-L1s are not economically viable. Based on year-to-date data, over 86.6% of Aave’s revenue comes from the mainnet, indicating that everything else is a side quest. On this basis, ACI proposes closing underperforming networks. The DAO should invest in key networks with significant differentiators. Second, ACI is pushing for a complete overhaul of the “friendly fork” framework, as most have been unimpressive regarding TVL and revenue. In some cases, attackers have exploited them to Aave’s detriment, as seen with Spark. Sponsored Sponsored “The friendly fork model had a good intention but bad execution where the DAO was too friendly towards these forks, allowing the DAO only little upside,” the report states. Third, the instance model, once a smart…
