Digital Credit · preferred shares
Bitcoin-backed preferred shares of all issuers
9 of these shares trade today and pay between 8.6 % and 15.5 % a year at today's prices. Bitcoin would have to fall by 29 % before the company's bitcoin no longer covers even the least-covered one.
Companies that hold bitcoin sell these shares to raise money and pay their buyers a regular dividend in return. The more bitcoin stands behind a share, the safer that dividend.

Capital structure per company
Each company's bitcoin is on top, then who gets paid from it first: debt, the preferred shares by rank, the common shares last. All bars use one scale, and each claim starts where the ones before it end. The dashed line marks the bitcoin's value: a layer that ends left of it is covered, a red part is not. “Covered 3×” means the bitcoin is worth three times everything down to that layer; “below 1× at” is the bitcoin price where that cover runs out.

Yield vs. coverage
Each point is a preferred share: further right more bitcoin coverage, higher up more effective yield. Left of the 1× line the bitcoin no longer covers the claims.

Calculator 8: digital-credit cash flow
Sell some bitcoin, put the proceeds into STRC, STRF or SATA: what that pays per month and per year.
Open the calculator →Glossary
- Digital credit
- Preferred shares and notes of companies holding bitcoin: they pay a regular dividend, and the issuer's bitcoin stands behind them.
- Stated value
- The fixed amount per share the dividend rate is calculated on, often $100; not the market price.
- Dividend rate
- The percentage per year on the stated value, e.g. 10 % on $100 = $10 a year.
- Effective yield
- What buying at today's price pays per year: dividend rate × stated value ÷ price. Below the stated value it is higher than the rate, above it lower.
- Ex-date
- From this day the share trades without the next dividend: whoever holds it before is entitled.
- Seniority
- The order in which claims are served: debt first, then the preferreds by rank, the common shares last.
- Fixed or variable
- A fixed rate stays the same; a variable one is adjusted by the issuer (e.g. monthly), usually to keep the price near the stated value.
- Convertible
- The preferred share can be exchanged into common shares on fixed terms and so gains when they rise.
- Cumulative
- A missed dividend accrues and must be paid before anything junior gets paid.
- BTC coverage
- How many times the issuer's bitcoin covers the instrument: BTC holdings × BTC price ÷ (debt + the stated value outstanding of this and every preferred ranking before or alike).
- BTC price at 1×
- The BTC price at which coverage is exactly 1×: (debt + preferreds ranking before or alike) ÷ BTC holdings. Below it the bitcoin alone no longer covers the claims.
- mNAV
- Market value of the common shares ÷ value of the bitcoin held. Above 1× the market pays more than the bitcoin is worth.
- After hours
- Trading outside regular market hours, in the US before 9:30 and after 16:00 New York time; usually thin.
- Return of capital (ROC)
- Some US issuers declare dividends as a return of capital, not taxed as income in the US at first.
Sources and verification
Every instrument fact is checked against the source named before it is published (mostly the issuer's own announcements and filings). An instrument without a source and date appears only as “being verified”, without figures. Prices, volume, history and dividends paid: Yahoo Finance.
