After an $8.22 billion Q2 loss tied to Bitcoin swings, Michael Saylor’s Strategy targets Sept. 8 to restore STRC preferred shares to par

AI Market Summary
Strategy's $8.32B unrealized digital-asset loss and small BTC sales to meet STRC preferred obligations highlight how dividend-linked financing can force liquidity actions during drawdowns. While net BTC accumulation remains large in 2026, the dependence on maintaining STRC near par and rebuilding cash reserves adds a potential supply overhang and tightens the link between credit market conditions and marginal Bitcoin demand.
