Strive's Bitcoin (BTC) Holdings Reach 43,124 After Weekly Purchase

Strive Adds 124 BTC in Monday SEC Filing

Strive, a US-listed company that has built its corporate treasury around Bitcoin (BTC), purchased 124 BTC between October 24 and October 30, according to a filing it submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Monday. The document puts the tranche's value at roughly 1.5 billion yen at the time of purchase. The buy lifted Strive's total holdings to 43,124 BTC, a position that ranks fourth among publicly listed companies holding Bitcoin on their balance sheets. The Bitcoin (BTC) price stands near $77,818 at the time of writing, up 1.3% over the past 24 hours. Strive runs its accumulation as a long-term strategic bitcoin reserve rather than as trading inventory, and the filing contains no indication of an intent to sell. What the document does establish is where the company now stands in the listed-holder table: fourth overall, 876 BTC behind the second place held by Metaplanet, the listed crypto whale directly above it. First place belongs to Strategy by a distance no listed rival currently threatens. Chief Executive Matt Cole has spoken openly about the year-end period when weighing how realistic the climb to second place is, and the gap has narrowed enough that weekly purchase filings now carry ranking consequences as well as balance-sheet ones. The ranking table itself has become a recurring talking point for listed treasuries this quarter, and Strive's disclosure feeds it directly. The filing also confirms that the company kept buying through the end of October, weeks after it had already secured a top-four position among listed holders.

COINOTAG's composite support and resistance scoring, which rates each level from 0 to 100 based on the indicators converging there, places the strongest overhead resistance at $78,119 with a score of 96/100 and the nearest meaningful support at $76,161 at 89/100. Momentum reads are soft: the relative strength index sits at 40.13 and the trend classification remains a downtrend, while the Fear & Greed Index stands at 26, in fear territory. Bitcoin technical analysis frames the market Strive is buying into as one that reclaims $77,500 after an intraday dip to $76,268 earlier this week, with the 96-scored ceiling just overhead. A weekly close above $78,119, or a rejection there, would set the near-term course for the treasuries accumulating at these levels.

From $1.25 Billion a Month to 124 BTC a Week

The 124 Bitcoin (BTC) added in the latest week marks a clear slowdown from the pace Strive sustained through October, when the company bought roughly $1.25 billion worth of Bitcoin in a matter of weeks. The slowdown has not changed the stated objective. If Metaplanet makes no further purchases, Strive could move into second place by the end of the year by continuing to buy at a rate of about 100 BTC per week, the arithmetic implied by the gap disclosed in the filing. If Metaplanet adds to its own stack, Strive would need to lift its purchase pace to take the position, a scenario that turns a steady accumulation program into a direct contest between two listed buyers. Neither company has signaled any intention to sell, and both operate on the HODL logic that has defined corporate Bitcoin treasuries since the strategy first appeared on listed balance sheets. Context for Strive's position came from the other disclosure filed the same day. Strategy, the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin (BTC) and a company whose treasury identity is built on Bitcoin maximalism, reported on Monday that it bought 811 BTC for about $65.5 million between October 26 and November 1. The average purchase price worked out to $80,846 per BTC, above where the market trades now, and Strategy's total holdings reached 849,327 BTC as of November 1, close to twenty times Strive's stack. That gap explains why the ranking that matters for Strive is second place rather than the top of the table, and why the weekly disclosures from both firms are read as markers in a longer accumulation race among corporate Bitcoin treasuries. Whatever Strive was before the accumulation began, the filing leaves little ambiguity about the kind of company it now is: a treasury vehicle whose market story is measured in Bitcoin per week.
