- The 90-day correlation coefficient between the two has climbed to nearly 0.70, the highest level since the instrument debuted in July 2025, according to data source TradingView.

This weakens its appeal as a relatively steady income provider.
The 90-day correlation coefficient between the two has climbed to nearly 0.70, the highest level since the instrument debuted in July 2025, according to data source TradingView. The correlation has been rising since early this month, with both STRC and BTC losing ground. While STRC has tanked 23% to $76 this month, BTC’s price has slipped nearly 20% to under $60,000, hitting levels last seen in October 2024.
This tightening correlation changes the risk profile for investors seeking steady income from the preferred stock of the world’s largest corporate BTC holder, which owns 847,363 BTC worth $50.4 billion, according to BitcoinTreasuries.net.
