After years of a strict "never sell" stance, Strategy's Executive Chairman Michael Saylor hinted the company might sell some Bitcoin to meet dividend obligations, causing prediction market odds on Polymarket to jump from 30% to over 80%. This shift reflects growing concern over Strategy's financial pressures, including $1.5 billion in annual preferred dividends and a narrow buffer given Bitcoin's current price near the company's average acquisition cost. A limited Bitcoin sale could help stabilize the company's finances without signaling a long-term shift away from Bitcoin. Investors are watching closely as this could impact both Strategy's balance sheet and broader crypto market sentiment.
