Strive CEO: STRC Plunges to $82.50, SATA Falls to Low $90s on June 19 Due to Leveraged Liquidations, Not Credit Deterioration

According to BlockBeats citing Strive CEO Matt Cole, on June 19, STRC plunged intraday to $82.50 before rallying sharply, while SATA dropped from near par to the low $90s and subsequently recovered. Cole stated the volatility stemmed from leveraged liquidations rather than underlying credit quality deterioration.

Cole emphasized that Strive's credit fundamentals remain sound, with dividend reserves intact and the company maintaining full capacity to meet obligations. Both STRC and SATA showed significant buying interest near intraday lows and recovered quickly, indicating genuine demand at lower price levels. He differentiated between liquidation events and credit events, reaffirming confidence in the digital credit market's long-term opportunity.
