Strive has expanded its Bitcoin treasury by purchasing approximately 382 BTC for roughly $30 million. According to reports, this acquisition brings the firm's total audited balance to 15,391 BTC. The move is part of the company's ongoing strategy to accumulate Bitcoin as a primary treasury reserve asset following its recent merger with Semler.
With this purchase, Strive maintains its position as the ninth-largest corporate Bitcoin treasury globally, following the lead of market giants like MicroStrategy. Per market data, continued corporate accumulation reflects growing institutional confidence in digital assets as inflation hedges, particularly after the U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) hit 1.4% on May 13, 2026, significantly exceeding the 0.5% forecast.
