Strive has introduced a new investment product offering a 15% annual dividend, paid in 
Bitcoin, through its preferred shares. This offering comes at a time when investors are seeking alternative income sources amid fluctuating market conditions.
The company priced seven million shares at $100 each, with the dividend distributed daily. This structure provides investors with a consistent return while mitigating some of the volatility associated with Bitcoin's price fluctuations.

The offering aligns with a broader trend of crypto companies exploring income-generating products. These products aim to attract investors looking for higher yields than those available in traditional markets.
