THE TRADING VOLUME OF STRC STOCK OF STRATEGY SOARS AS DIVIDENDS REMAIN AT 11.5%
@MicroStrategy (now rebranded as Strategy) maintains an annual dividend rate of 11.5% on STRC preferred shares for May 2026, marking the third consecutive month at that level as interest from institutional investors surges.
STRC has developed into a nominal instrument worth $6.4 billion with an average daily liquidity of about $339 million, increasing nearly 10 times in just five months. The company is now proposing to pay dividends twice a month to further stabilize STRC near its par value of $100 (currently at $99.75), and promote it as one of the most successful credit instruments ever issued.
CEO @michael_saylor continues to express absolute confidence in the yield model supported by $BTC despite critics calling it the "death spiral." With Strategy now holding 815,061 BTC, STRC remains the central fundraising mechanism behind the company's accelerating accumulation.
JPMORGAN CHASE ACCEPTS BITCOIN AS COLLATERAL FOR INSTITUTIONAL LOANS
@JPMorgan is expanding its cryptocurrency collateral program, now accepting $BTC and $ETH for institutional loans including mortgage collateral.
The bank's Kinexys platform handles real-time pricing, with a third-party custodian safeguarding the committed tokens. JPMorgan joins Morgan Stanley, State Street, BNY Mellon, and Fidelity in expanding crypto-backed lending.
For $BTC, this is a structural demand. Long-held positions become yield-generating collateral instead of dead capital. #TrumpWarOverIranTalks
RIPPLE LOCKS 700 MILLION XRP IN ESCROW
@Ripple has returned 700 million $XRP tokens to escrow after unlocking 1 billion at the beginning of the month, keeping 300 million in circulation for operational use.
The total value locked in escrow is approximately $974 million. Ripple's escrow balance is currently around 33.35 billion XRP, with the company adhering to the standard monthly model of releasing 1B and locking up ~70% to manage supply.
$XRP is holding at around $1.38, up 1.37% to start May, with reserves on exchanges continuing to decline as demand quietly increases. #TrumpWarOverIranTalks
XRP BECOMES THE FIRST ALTCOIN WITH A PAYMENT TOOL FOR FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS
@coinbase officially activated Trade at Settlement (TAS) for $XRP futures contracts on May 1, bringing $XRP to the same level as Bitcoin, Ethereum, gold, and crude oil futures.
TAS allows institutions to execute block orders at the settlement price of 4 PM instead of the intraday market price, removing significant barriers to executing high trading volumes. A separate Coinbase market-making program was also launched on the same day to enhance the liquidity depth of the $XRP order book.
The infrastructure has now been built. The remaining question is whether capital will actually show up or not. #TrumpWarOverIranTalks
TETHER REPORTS HUGE PROFITS REACHED IN Q1 2026
@Tether officially reported a net profit of $1.04 billion for Q1 2026, boosting their total excess reserve buffer to a record high of $8.23 billion.
The latest confirmation report shows that $USDT is backed by a $141 billion U.S. Treasury investment portfolio, making the company the 17th largest holder of U.S. government debt globally.
The reserves now include $20 billion in physical gold and $7 billion in $BTC, providing a solid liquidity buffer for the circulating supply of $183 billion.#TrumpWarOverIranTalks
BITCOIN MINERS ARE STILL SELLING LARGE AMOUNTS OF $BTC
According to data from Lookonchain, yesterday, top Bitcoin miner Riot sold an additional 500 $BTC, worth about 38.2 million dollars.
This single event is just part of a larger trend, as the largest mining companies in the world are actively liquidating $BTC, perhaps to offset operational costs amid unimpressive prices in 2026#CLARITYActYieldRules
GRAYSCALE BELIEVES $CC $AVAX, $LINK ARE THE KEYS TO THE 'SUPER HUGE TOKENIZATION TREND'
@Grayscale believes that the story of tokenization is a "super huge trend" worth $300 trillion.
The company has highlighted several tokens as "keys" to this trend, including $ETH, $SOL, $CC, $BNB, $AVAX, and $LINK.
It also specifically mentions $CC from @CantonNetwork, thanks to its crucial privacy infrastructure.#CLARITYActYieldRules
⚖️ The CLARITY Act and Legal Turning Point for Stablecoins
The CLARITY Act is becoming the focal point as it proposes a stricter legal framework for the distribution of profits from stablecoins in the U.S.
• The new regulations require issuers to tie rewards to actual trading activities rather than merely holding assets.
• $USDC currently has a competitive advantage due to its transparent operational structure and ability to meet stringent audit standards.
• In contrast, $USDT faces a challenging dilemma in monitoring on-chain transactions while maintaining decentralization.
The market is trending strongly towards transparent solutions to meet regulatory demands. However, policy changes always carry the risk of significant volatility, and investors need to exercise caution.
