The purchase lifts its total holdings to 19,000 BTC, data shows, and pushes the bitcoin treasury company further into the top 10 of publicly traded corporate holders.
The filing comes as its peer, and the largest corporate bitcoin holder, Strategy (MSTR), disclosed its first publicized sale of 32 bitcoin for $2.5 million at an average price of $77,135 on Monday, sparking a selloff in BTC and the broader crypto market since.
Meanwhile, Benchmark analyst Mark Palmer initiated coverage on Strive with a Buy rating and a $32 price target on Tuesday, implying roughly 93% upside even after the company's Class A shares fell 3.59% to $16.58 in pre-market trading.
