World's largest Bitcoin-treasury firm, chaired by Michael Saylor, Strategy has officially begun its semi-monthly dividend payment structure for STRC.
In a recent post shared by Saylor, the pro-Bitcoin advocate made the announcement, revealing that Strategy's shareholders will now receive dividend payments twice each month instead of the previous monthly payment structure.
Saylor to pay first-ever semi-monthly dividend in June
While the development is now in play, Strategy has revealed that the first record date under the updated payment structure is set for June 30, 2026.
Furthermore, Strategy released a distribution schedule for future dividend payments, which shows that the first semi-monthly dividend period carries a dividend rate of 11.50% and a dividend payment of $0.48 per share.
With this new payment structure, shareholders recorded as of June 30 for the first semi-monthly payment will be eligible for the upcoming July 15 payout.
STRC dividend rate rises
While the new payment mode tends to make STRC investments more appealing to investors, the updated payment schedule also shows STRC's dividend rate steadily increasing over recent months, suggesting that Bitcoin's recent weakness did not suppress its growth.
Over the period, the dividend rate had risen from 9.00% in August 2025 to 11.50% by June 2026. The surge in the dividend rate is expected to continue as Bitcoin begins to regain strength, being Strategy's primary investment asset.
Nonetheless, the development has sparked reactions across the crypto ecosystem, as it signals greater adoption for the Bitcoin treasury firm.
Apparently, enthusiasts are increasingly looking into investing in STRC as it now offers investors more frequent cash payouts without compromising its yield profile.
