Strategy (one MicroStrategy-style Bitcoin treasury firm) don finish buyback of $1.5B 0% convertible senior notes wey go mature 2029 for about $1.38B cash, roughly 8% discount from par. That repurchase reduce the 2029 convertible notes wey still dey from ~ $8.2B to ~ $6.7B, so e reduce future repayment pressure and help the balance-sheet look better. For the latest disclosures, Strategy report say e get $15.5B aggregate notional preferred stock and $871M USD cash reserve.
