Strategy Shrugs Off Bitcoin Crash, Claims 71 Years of Dividend Protection

by

Business intelligence software firm Strategy has boldly proclaimed that it has 71 years of dividend coverage in the event that the price of Bitcoin decides to just sit there like a bored cat on a windowsill. 🐱

Yes, you read that right. Should the price of BTC hold steady (which is basically like waiting for a pizza delivery on a Sunday night), this strategy claims it could coast along happily without breaking a sweat. We assume this means they’re unphased by the current chaos of the flagship cryptocurrency-whose price is definitely as stable as a trampoline in a tornado.

Enter Cern Basher, co-founder and CIO at Brilliant Advice, who seems to think the market is intentionally trying to nudge Strategy into liquidating its sizable Bitcoin holdings. However, Strategy’s calm, collected response to this conspiracy theory is nothing short of… well, strategy.

Strategy’s Valuation Basis Now at $87,000/BTC

On November 20, Strategy delivered a statement so nonchalant it could make you wonder if they were sipping a piña colada while typing it. Despite Bitcoin’s sudden drop in value, the firm made it clear it’s in no rush to sell off any of its giant stash of 649,870 BTC. That’s right, they’ve recently added another 8,178 BTC, because why not? 🎉

While many have speculated that the firm will eventually part with some of its holdings to “minimize unrealized losses” (a phrase that sounds suspiciously like ‘playing it safe’), Strategy responded with a revelation that would surely leave the crypto critics with their jaws on the floor. According to them, they have a full 71 years of dividend protection if the Bitcoin price stays flat. That’s almost enough time to plan for retirement… or, you know, find out what’s actually going on with the price of Bitcoin.

At current $BTC levels, we have 71 years of dividend coverage assuming the price stays flat. And any $BTC appreciation beyond 1.41% a year fully offsets our annual dividend obligations.

The firm went on to explain that any Bitcoin appreciation beyond 1.41% annually would essentially make their dividend obligations a thing of the past. Honestly, they’ve got this whole “HODLing” thing down to a science.

They also shared a rather detailed chart (which, of course, made us all feel like we need to take a nap after trying to comprehend it). But in a nutshell: with 649,870 BTC valued at a base of $87,000 each, their total BTC value sits at a staggering $56 billion. Naturally, their annual dividend coverage is $700 million and total debt obligations a mere $8.2 billion. Sounds like a walk in the park, doesn’t it?

Michael Saylor Says Strategy Will HODL

Amidst Bitcoin’s recent struggles, Strategy has certainly garnered its fair share of attention. Market observers have been having a field day discussing the supposed losses Strategy is incurring by sticking to its beloved HODLing strategy (a strategy that involves holding onto Bitcoin like a toddler clutching a stuffed animal).

Last week, the rumor mill began churning, with claims that the firm had begun selling off part of its BTC stash. Enter Rekt Fencer (who probably needs a hug), an X user who started spreading word that Strategy had sold 33,000 BTC-about $3.2 billion worth-and might still be offloading more.

🚨 BREAKING:

MICHAEL SAYLOR’S STRATEGY JUST STARTED SELLING BITCOIN.

For the first time ever they fell below 1 NAV.

They already dumped 33,000 $BTC ($3.2 BILLION) and keep selling every few minutes.

IS IT OVER???

– Rekt Fencer (@rektfencer) November 14, 2025

Rekt Fencer was all dramatic, claiming that Strategy had fallen below a Net Asset Value of 1 for the first time. A truly apocalyptic moment in the world of crypto, if we’re to believe the tone of the post. 😱

But fear not, because Michael Saylor, the firm’s own fearless leader, casually tossed aside these rumors with a single word: “HODL.” Which, in case you were wondering, is the crypto equivalent of “chill out” or “keep calm and carry on.” Well, it seems the Bitcoin fire sale wasn’t happening anytime soon. 💸
