Add us on Google by Editorial Team Jun. 9, 2026Strive, Inc. picked up another 32 Bitcoin last week, a modest addition that nonetheless pushed the company’s total stash to 19,032 BTC. The purchase, disclosed in an SEC Form 8-K filing on June 8, cost approximately $2.1 million at an average price of $63,911 per coin.
Strive has been systematically stacking Bitcoin throughout 2026, and the cumulative result is a treasury valued at approximately $1.2 billion. That positions the Nasdaq-listed firm as the seventh-largest public corporate Bitcoin holder.
The accumulation playbook
The 32 BTC were acquired between June 2 and June 7. This follows a much larger acquisition of 444 BTC in May, which pushed total holdings past the 15,000 BTC mark.

Investors apparently liked what they saw. ASST shares jumped between 7% and 12% in premarket trading following the announcement.
How Strive got here
The foundation was laid through a merger with Asset Entities in 2025, which gave Strive its public listing and the corporate infrastructure needed to operate as a Nasdaq-traded entity. Then came the January 2026 acquisition of Semler Scientific, a deal that integrated a healthcare business into Strive’s portfolio. Semler Scientific had its own Bitcoin treasury strategy, and absorbing the company meant absorbing its BTC holdings too.
What this means for investors
Strive’s $1.2 billion Bitcoin treasury represents a significant portion of its total enterprise value, which means the stock’s performance is increasingly tethered to Bitcoin’s price movements.
The $139.2 million cash balance represents optionality. Strive can continue buying Bitcoin at current prices, wait for pullbacks, or potentially pursue another acquisition that comes with BTC attached.
