Peter Schiff Takes Aim at STRC: This is 'Clearly a Ponzi Scheme'
Recently, well-known Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff went off on Strategy's preferred stock STRC during a livestream, unflinchingly labeling it a 'clear Ponzi scheme.' Not only that, but he openly invited Michael Saylor and others to step up and refute his claims.
He spent nearly two hours on the stream detailing his views, explaining why he believes this product will ultimately leave retail investors high and dry.
Schiff pointed out that the model relies on using funds from new investors to pay returns to old investors. He further noted that Strategy has almost no substantial income, and the little money their software business makes is nowhere near enough to cover the 11.5% annual dividend on STRC.
He argues that the operation of STRC is based on issuing new shares to fund dividends for old shareholders, then issuing more shares, creating a cycle. He questioned, 'With no income, what are they paying with? An 11.5% yield is just maintained by selling more STRC shares to fund the dividend payouts.'
It's worth noting that Strategy has been pouring significant funds into Bitcoin purchases. Just last week, the company splashed out $2.54 billion to acquire 34,164 BTC, bringing their total Bitcoin holdings to over 815,000 coins;
On April 13 alone, STRC's trading volume skyrocketed to $1.1 billion, more than four times the 300-day average volume of about $274 million, showing that STRC plays a crucial role as a funding engine for Strategy's capital flow.
Schiff noted that Strategy has no legal obligation to pay STRC dividends; payments are entirely at the company's discretion. Holders cannot compel the company to pay back, nor can they redeem shares, only sell them on the secondary market.
And once Saylor stops paying dividends, the STRC yield will vanish, demand will collapse, and the share price will eventually hit zero. Thus, Schiff concluded that this is just a 'bad check.'
Moreover, the trend in yield itself reveals issues. When STRC launched in July last year, it was at 9%, and has been raised multiple times, reaching 11.5% since April. Schiff believes this indicates weak market demand, forcing them to keep raising prices to attract new buyers.
However, some argue that Strategy itself holds a large amount of Bitcoin, and selling it could cover all shareholder returns. Schiff scoffed at this: 'By the time they actually start selling, Bitcoin prices will have already crashed.'

BTC Escapes 6-Month STRC Ex-Dividend Downtrend on Short Squeeze, U.S. Buying Pressure
For the first time in six months, Bitcoin is up in the week following Strategy’s STRC ex-dividend, as a result of negative funding and Coinbase premium.
Breaking the Trend
* First up in 6 months: BTC currently trading at ∼$79K compared to ∼$75K on STRC ex-dividend of April 15.
* Normally, STRC falls by its dividend amount on ex-dividend day and gradually rebounds back to ∼$100 par in about 2 weeks. Currently valued at $99.47.
* Once STRC reaches par, Strategy will be able to utilize its ATM facility for issuing shares and buying more Bitcoin.
Why BTC is Moving Up
* Squeeze trade: Funding rates of perpetual futures are still negative (short pays long), showing bearish sentiment. With price rising, shorts have been squeezed, amplifying upward pressure.
* American demand: Consistent Coinbase premium implies that BTC price is higher on US exchanges than elsewhere, indicating consistent spot buying.
Activity of Strategy
* Strategy revealed its third-biggest BTC buy in history at 34,164 BTC. The price initially held firm around $75K before moving up.
* Shares of MSTR up +9% Wednesday to $178, with the company likely using common stock ATM for further BTC purchases.
* Strategy continues to hold biggest BTC holdings in public company.

🔥 $BTC ALERT 💔— STRATEGY'S "INFINITE MONEY GLITCH" IS GLITCHING
We need to talk about Michael Saylor and the $STRC situation.
You saw the headline. I saw the headline. But let's decode what
this actually means for your $BTC bags — because this isn't just FUD, it's structural.
💔STRC BROKE BELOW FACE VALUE
STRC is Strategy's (formerly MicroStrategy) preferred stock. Face value = $100.
It just dipped below $100.
Because 86% of their last 34,164 Bitcoin buy was funded by selling
this paper.
Think of STRC as Saylor's ATM card to buy Bitcoin.
If that card gets declined (trading below par), raising billions more to
stack sats becomes a lot harder and a lot more expensive.

Strategy is tightening the payout rhythm on $STRCStrategy’s proposal to shift STRC dividends from monthly to bi-monthly reads like a move to streamline cash flow and reduce friction in the reinvestment loop. If the vote clears, the updated schedule could improve liquidity and market efficiency, with the process now mapped through the April 28 filing, June 8 vote completion, and a June 30 effective date.

🇧🇷 The largest Bitcoin treasury in Latin America buys STRC
According to BitcoinTreasuries, the largest Bitcoin treasury in Latin America, OranjeBTC, has purchased perpetual preferred shares STRC issued by Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy). OranjeBTC founder Guilherme Gomes stated that this move aims to build a long-term Bitcoin holding strategy of 'never selling'.
STRC currently has a market value of $5 billion, with about 80% held by retail investors and an annual dividend yield of approximately 11.5%, paid monthly. As a form of 'digital credit' tool, STRC transforms the market's demand for stable returns into a funding source for Strategy's continuous Bitcoin purchases. OranjeBTC has included STRC in its balance sheet, which can provide stable dividend income while also exploring diversified expansion paths for treasury assets.
Strategy currently holds about 762,000 Bitcoins, and its financing model through preferred shares like STRC is being adopted by more corporate treasuries. The inclusion of the largest Bitcoin treasury in Latin America marks the global spread of this 'hold-finance-rehold' accumulation strategy.
