STRC stock hits record $1.5 billion volume as funds snap up 11,707 BTC

STRC stock shatters volume record ahead of ex‑dividend date

Heavy trading on the Nasdaq pushed STRC to its most active session ever. The exchange logged ↑ $1.5 billion in total turnover, eclipsing the previous high by roughly 23%. Institutional investors seized the moment, allocating capital to acquire ↑ 11,707 BTC through the company’s crypto‑linked fund. Analysts at Reuters note that the surge aligns with the approaching ex‑dividend cutoff, a pattern observed in prior dividend‑driven spikes.

“The confluence of dividend timing and crypto exposure creates a unique arbitrage incentive,” said a senior market strategist.

Meanwhile, Bloomberg reports that the fund’s Bitcoin holdings now represent about 1.2% of STRC’s total assets, a modest but growing share. The heightened activity has lifted the stock’s price by 3.4% since the week’s start, setting a bullish tone for the upcoming quarter.
