Form 8-K

Form 8-K is the SEC's "current report". A company must file one within four business days of certain events, such as entering a material agreement, amending its charter or modifying the rights of security holders. It may also file one voluntarily to make information public under Regulation FD. Each 8-K is organised by numbered Items.

Items that matter for digital credit

• Item 3.03 (Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders) and Item 5.03 (Amendments to Articles of Incorporation): used when a new certificate of designations is filed or amended. The certificate is attached as Exhibit 3.1.
• Item 7.01 / 8.01 (Regulation FD / Other Events): used for dividend declarations, rate announcements, bitcoin purchases and capital-raising updates.
• Item 2.02 (Results of Operations): quarterly results, with the press release as Exhibit 99.1.

How Strategy uses it

Strategy files 8-Ks frequently, typically weekly. They report bitcoin bought or sold, sales under its ATM programmes, STRC repurchases and the USD Reserve balance. For example, the 8-K of 19 October 2026 reported 848,517 bitcoin held and a $4.83bn USD Reserve as of 18 October 2026. It also reported 1,938,780 STRC shares repurchased for $193.1m in the week to 18 October, and an increase of the digital credit repurchase programme to $3.0bn.

STRC rate changes are announced by 8-K, for example the 8-K of 15 October 2026 for November 2026.

How Strive uses it

Strive announces each month's SATA rate and daily dividend amounts by 8-K, for example the 8-K of 13 October 2026 for November 2026.

21DC's ingestion polls EDGAR for new 8-Ks from both issuers. Each data point on the site links to the filing it came from.

What to check in the filing

• The Item numbers (they tell you what kind of event it is)
• Exhibits, which often hold the actual document
• Whether figures are "as of" a date earlier than the filing date
