Legal Storm Surrounding Strategy: Rosen Law Firm Launches Investigation into Michael Saylor's Empire
The Rosen Law Firm has officially initiated an investigation into Strategy (formerly known as MicroStrategy) and invites investors who purchased the company's securities to join a potential class action lawsuit. This development has drawn close attention from the entire cryptocurrency community.
At the center of the investigation is the question of whether Strategy and its management misled investors regarding key aspects of its operations. Attorneys are examining the accuracy of statements about its bitcoin storage strategy, business profitability, and, most importantly, the risks associated with its aggressive model of accumulating the leading cryptocurrency.
In Focus: STRC Preferred Shares and Growing Risks
The review covers a range of securities, including MSTR, STRF, STRC, STRK, and STRD. However, the greatest attention is on STRC — Strategy's perpetual preferred stock. Amid the volatility of these instruments and the company's increasing reliance on various forms of financing to purchase bitcoin, the Rosen investigation appears particularly timely.
The Arkham platform has already issued an important clarification, comparing STRC to the collapsed Terra ecosystem. Analysts emphasize: "Will STRC become the new LUNA? In short — not exactly." The key difference is that Strategy has no legal obligation to support the market price of STRC, unlike Terra's algorithmic stabilization mechanisms.
"The value of STRC only shows how much the market believes in the continuation of dividend payments from Saylor," Arkham notes. It is also emphasized that the company is not legally required to pay these dividends, and in the event of problems, priority may be given to other obligations.
The Reality of the Numbers: $1.2 Billion Per Year
According to Arkham's calculations, to maintain the current payout structure for STRC, Strategy requires approximately $1.2 billion per year. This figure calls into question the sustainability of the chosen financing model, especially during periods of market weakness. If the company's revenues begin to decline, payments on preferred shares could be at risk.
Prominent analyst Shanaka Anslem urges against dramatizing the situation. He notes that the Rosen Law Firm notice is a standard practice for law firms seeking clients after a sharp stock decline, not evidence of fraud. "There is no SEC lawsuit, no DOJ case. No complaint has been filed, no specific misrepresentations have been identified," he emphasizes.
My view as an analyst: This investigation is not a verdict, but a serious signal to the market. Michael Saylor's strategy, which worked brilliantly in a bull market, is now being tested for resilience. The question is not whether the company broke the law, but how sustainable its financial model is in the face of a potential bearish trend. Investors in Strategy's instruments should closely monitor developments and assess the risks associated with debt load and dividend obligations.
