ASST is pinned at $27 with warrants expiring 10/10 at the same strike and 30% short interest creating a squeeze setup. The FOMC hold on 9/16 is expected to trigger a rally, with warrant execution and short covering driving significant near-term upside over the next 4.5 weeks.
Strive is a Bitcoin treasury company with strong balance sheet ($680M in BTC, $109M cash, $13M liabilities) positioned to benefit from BTC appreciation and strategic acquisitions. The company uses non-dilutive preferred equity financing to accumulate more BTC, making it the second-largest publicly traded BTC accumulator after MicroStrategy, with major institutional investors (Jane Street ~10%, Anson Fund ~9.9%) recently accumulating positions.
Strive Inc. (ASST) is positioned as a Bitcoin treasury play trading at $1.20 with significant upside potential. With an anticipated massive Bitcoin rally to $150k, expected Mt Gox estate acquisition of 75k BTC, and potential to rival Microstrategy, the author expects the stock to rebound and surpass its all-time high of $19.79 over coming months.
Strive's leadership (Vivek Ramaswamy) is suspect, insider trading and rug-pull dynamics are evident, and Ken Griffin's Citadel backing suggests this is a distraction/dump scheme. High risk of collapse.
The $1.35 warrants represent future capital inflow rather than dilution, with a one-year exercise window eliminating near-term selling pressure. A clean capital structure and stronger Bitcoin holdings position the company for a re-rating once market sentiment shifts.
The CIO clarified that widely-cited 2.2x dilution figures are based on unexercised warrants (expiring in one year at a $1.35 strike), making the real float and market cap lower than currently displayed. Once exercised at higher prices, warrants would generate ~$750M in capital not yet priced in. Combined with technical accumulation between $1.10–$1.20 after panic selling, the stock appears undervalued and positioned for a rerating, especially if the Semler merger update is announced.
Recently merged entity holding ~10K BTC in treasury, positioned as a Bitcoin proxy. Market momentum and news cycle remain hot; if BTC continues its run, ASST could deliver outsized short-term gains.
End of results.
