Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor said in a recent podcast that his preferred perpetual stock, STRD, is being overlooked by investors because it trades as a junior security, unlike STRF, which is a senior instrument. STRD’s junior status has caused it to receive less attention despite its higher potential returns, Saylor said. In a capital stack, senior securities are paid out first and typically carry lower risk and lower yields. Junior securities are paid out after senior ones and carry higher risk, offering higher potential returns in compensation. As a senior security, STRF is protected by penalty provisions and prioritized…

Crypto has spent years building yield infrastructure, such as staking on Ethereum and Solana, yield-bearing stablecoins, DeFi lending protocols, and tokenized Treasuries. The pipes already exist, the APYs are live, yet only 8% to 11% of the total crypto market generates yield today, compared to 55% to 65% of traditional financial (TradFi) assets, according to RedStone’s latest analysis. That penetration gap isn’t a product problem, but rather a disclosure problem. RedStone tallies roughly $300 billion to $400 billion of yield-bearing crypto assets against a $3.55 trillion total market capitalization to arrive at that 8% to 11% figure, with a caveat:…
