As long as BTC is rising, the model works: for every Bitcoin sold, Strategy can potentially buy even more coins. But there's a catch: the dividends are fixed in dollars. If the market reverses and BTC begins to fall, the company will have to sell even more Bitcoin to pay the same dividends.$BTC $MSTR
