Strive buys 124 Bitcoin, closes in on Metaplanet in treasury race

The Nasdaq-listed firm now holds 43,124 BTC, leaving it within striking distance of Metaplanet's roughly 44,000 BTC Strive just added 124 Bitcoin to its balance sheet. That brings the company’s total holdings to 43,124 BTC. By Strive’s recent standards, 124 coins is a rounding error. The real significance is where it lands the company: a short distance behind Metaplanet in the ranking of public Bitcoin treasuries. Strive, Inc. trades on Nasdaq under the ticker ASST. Vivek Ramaswamy co-founded it, and Matt Cole runs it as CEO. Strive made several large Bitcoin purchases during October.
