Strategy (MSTR) announced that it would change its holdings from merely accumulating Bitcoin (BTC) to using them as a liquidity management tool, causing its stock price to surge by 12.6%.

According to financial media outlet FXLeaders on June 30 (local time), Strategy's stock price closed at $92.68 on Monday, up 12.6%. Investors reacted to the potential easing of liquidity burdens after the company announced a new digital credit capital framework to manage its Bitcoin-based balance sheet.

As of June 28, Strategy disclosed USD reserves of approximately $2.55 billion. These reserves are designated to cover preferred stock dividends and interest expenses. Board approval is required for other uses.

The company stated that its current annual preferred stock dividend and interest obligations are approximately $1.76 billion. FXLeaders reported that these reserves are sufficient to cover about 17.4 months of expenses. The board also established a policy to maintain at least 12 months' worth of expenses without separate approval.

The biggest change is the Bitcoin monetization program. Strategy's board approved the sale of up to $1.25 billion worth of Bitcoin to build or replenish USD reserves. The company emphasized that there are no obligations or fixed maturities for Bitcoin sales. However, it showed the market that it can use its Bitcoin holdings as a conditional capital management tool, moving away from its previous image as a company that only continuously buys Bitcoin.

Strategy approved the repurchase of up to $1 billion in digital credit securities, including STRC, STRF, STRD, and STRK. Separately, it also approved a $1 billion share repurchase of MSTR Class A common stock. The annual dividend rate for STRC was raised to 12.00% starting from the semi-annual period with a record date after July 1, 2026.

Technically, the $100-$106 range was presented as the first hurdle. The 10-period simple moving average gave a buy signal at $92.10, but the 10-period exponential moving average maintained a sell signal at $93.62. The 20-period exponential moving average at $102.04, the volume-weighted moving average at $99.93, and the 20-period simple moving average at $105.72 converged to form a short-term resistance zone.
