• Strive Inc’s digital assets at fair value grew from $668.5 million at December 31, 2025 to $2.34 billion as of September 30, 2026
• The increase represents a roughly three-and-a-half-fold growth in the company’s treasury over three quarters
• The figure reflects a combination of the company’s bitcoin accumulation strategy and the asset’s own price appreciation over the period

Strive Inc, the bitcoin treasury company linked to Vivek Ramaswamy, disclosed in its quarterly report filed November 6, 2026 that its digital assets, carried at fair value on the balance sheet, grew from $668.5 million at the end of 2025 to $2.34 billion as of September 30, 2026. The roughly three-and-a-half-fold increase over three quarters reflects the combined effect of the company’s ongoing bitcoin purchases and the underlying appreciation in bitcoin’s market price across the period, a combination that makes isolating the two effects from the headline figure alone difficult without additional detail on purchase timing.

The filing itself, a Form 10-Q covering the quarter ended September 30, 2026, presents the figure as part of Strive’s standard quarterly balance-sheet disclosure, distinct from the narrative press release the company also issues alongside its results. That separate press release, which this batch does not cite as a source because its exhibit carries a GlobeNewswire dateline, reportedly detailed specific bitcoin-purchase figures for the quarter and the months following it; those more granular purchase figures are not independently verified here, and only the fair-value balance-sheet figure disclosed directly in the 10-Q body itself is used as the basis for this story.

Strive has positioned itself among a cohort of publicly traded companies pursuing an explicit strategy of accumulating bitcoin as a primary treasury asset, a strategy that ties the company’s reported balance sheet directly to bitcoin’s price movements in a way that traditional corporate treasuries holding cash or short-term securities are not exposed to. A nearly fourfold increase in such a holding over nine months illustrates how quickly that exposure can compound when a company continues adding to its position during a period of favorable price action.

Carrying digital assets at fair value, rather than at historical cost with impairment-only adjustments, is a relatively recent accounting approach for US public companies, following updated guidance that took effect industry-wide and let companies reflect both gains and losses in the value of crypto holdings each reporting period rather than only recognizing losses. That accounting shift is part of what allows a figure like Strive’s $2.34 billion to move so directly in step with the broader bitcoin market.

The scale of growth in this particular filing places Strive among the more aggressively growing treasuries in its peer group of publicly traded bitcoin-focused companies this quarter. The full quarterly filing is available on SEC EDGAR.
