Strategy’s STRC ATM has produced $2.7+ billion in volume across just two trading sessions this week, more than all of last week combined, absorbing an estimated 29,914 BTC with every single share trading above par.

Combined with Monday’s…

The officers later sued him for defamation, emotional distress, and invasion of privacy, claiming the videos ridiculed them and damaged their reputations. In March 2026, a jury…

Bitcoin is moving deeper into its current halving cycle, with the network now past the midpoint as the next supply cut approaches in 2028.
