Strategy Inc. ($MSTR), the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, saw its shares rise more than 1% ahead of the open after slumping 5% in the previous session, joining a broad-based tech rally despite continued pressure on $BTC. The company's STRC preferred stock instrument has declined 10% over the past month, with the structure drawing market scrutiny amid what some characterized as a leverage unwind; analysts noted this does not yet represent an existential threat for the Bitcoin treasury company. Robinhood Markets ($HOOD) outperformed the broader market, gaining +2.8% to close at $108.15 on higher-than-average trading volume, with the latest trend in earnings estimate revisions potentially supporting near-term momentum. Coinbase ($COIN) CEO Brian Armstrong discussed bitcoin market conditions, AI agents, and his ongoing dispute with a major banking executive in a wide-ranging interview, though the stock has failed to keep up with the broader financial sector over the past year despite analysts remaining fairly bullish about the outlook.
