Strategy’s STRC ATM Just Did $1 Billion in a Single Day — And the Machine Is Only Accelerating
April 13, 2026 marked a milestone that even the most aggressive STRC bulls didn’t see coming this fast.
Strategy’s Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock — ticker STRC — just printed over $1 billion in single-day trading volume. Not over a week. Not a rolling average. One session.
And the kicker? 100% of that volume cleared above the $100 par threshold, meaning every single share that traded was eligible to trigger Strategy’s at-the-market offering. The ATM didn’t just run on Monday. It ran at full capacity.
We track this in real time with our STRC ATM Tracker, and even by the standards of what’s been an extraordinary stretch, today stands alone.
The Confirmed Numbers: Last Week’s 8-K Was Already Historic
Before we get to today, let’s anchor in what we already know — because the SEC filing that dropped this morning tells a story of its own.
For the week of April 6–12, Strategy’s 8-K filing confirmed:
MetricConfirmed (8-K)Shares Sold10,028,363Net Proceeds$1.001 BillionBTC Acquired13,927 BTCAvg BTC Purchase Price$71,902Capture Rate81%
That’s $1 billion in net ATM proceeds in a single week — the second time STRC has crossed that threshold. The first was the week of March 9–15, when the program generated $1.18B in proceeds and acquired 16,815 BTC at a $70,194 average.
But here’s what makes the April 6–12 week structurally different: the capture rate surged to 81%. For context, that rate was 64% the week prior (Mar 30–Apr 5), 61% the week before that, and just 45% in early March. The trend line is steep, and it tells you that Strategy’s execution desk is getting more aggressive in capturing eligible volume — or that market conditions are making it easier to do so. Likely both.
You can view the full confirmed weekly breakdown on the live STRC ATM Dashboard, where 8-K data is integrated the day it’s filed.
Today’s Session: The Billion-Dollar Monday
Now layer Monday on top of that. From the STRC ATM Tracker taken at 4:10 PM ET during after-hours trading:
Volume: $1.06 billion
% Above $100 Par: 100%
Estimated ATM Proceeds: ~$796 million
Estimated BTC Acquired: ~10,834 BTC
BTC Price at Execution: ~$73,400
Let that number breathe for a moment. An estimated 10,834 BTC in a single day. The Bitcoin network mines approximately 450 BTC per day post-halving. That puts Monday’s estimated acquisition at 2,408% of daily mining supply.
Strategy didn’t just buy more Bitcoin than the network produced on Monday. It bought roughly 24 times more.
