On the sidelines from purchasing additional bitcoin for the past couple of weeks, Michael Saylor's Strategy (STRK) is at it again.

The news gave a small boost to bitcoin, which — amid yet another panicky Sunday session — traded as low as $80,000 a few hours ago. It's currently changing hands at just above $83,000.
Strategy by a mile is the largest corporate holder of bitcoin, with just shy of 500,000 tokens worth about $42 billion at bitcoin's current price.
If MSTR were to fully utilize this plan over what is likely to be a sizable period of time, the total annual dividend payout would be approximately $1.68 billion. Dividend payments would likely need to be funded via additional common stock capital raises and/or cash generated from Strategy's operational business activities.
MSTR shares are lower by 5.5% in premarket action and down about 50% from a record high hit in late November.
