Strive CEO says company could end 2026 as second-largest public bitcoin holder as ASST climbs

Strive’s CEO said the firm could become the second-largest public Bitcoin holder by the end of 2026 as its ASST-listed vehicle climbs, driven by inflows and the company’s accumulation plans. That trajectory depends on sustained capital growth and continued conversion of assets into Bitcoin. If realized, it would further concentrate supply on corporate balance sheets, likely tightening available market supply and reinforcing institutional demand and price support for Bitcoin.
