Silvia, Inc. repurchased an additional 5% of its common stock outstanding since September 22, 2026, bringing total repurchases to approximately 20% of shares outstanding at the inception of the buyback program. The company, formerly ProCap Financial, Inc. and the first publicly traded agentic finance firm, said it will continue to buy back shares as it deems appropriate. As of market close on October 6, 2026, outstanding shares totaled 78,665,076 after accounting for the settlement of all repurchased shares, and the company held approximately 4,965 Bitcoin.

Strive purchased 2,000 bitcoin for approximately $169 million, nearly six times the 334 bitcoin that Strategy announced buying the previous day, bringing Strive's total holdings to 29,462 bitcoin at an average price of $84,422 per coin. CEO Matt Cole said SETA preferred stock sales accounted for 61.5% of the capital raised, with warrant exercises generating another $56.7 million, and Strive now carries roughly $1.29 billion of SETA preferred stock with about $168 million in annual dividend obligations. Separately, the SEC approved the CBOE's request to list the first US products delivering three times the daily returns of bitcoin and ether, to be operated by Volatility Shares using regulated bitcoin and ether futures rather than the tokens themselves, doubling the previous 2X cap on US crypto funds. The CFTC also floated a new federal framework for leveraged retail crypto trading, proposing a crypto asset market registration category with token listing standards, market surveillance and anti-manipulation rules, proof of reserves for pooled customer assets, capital requirements, segregation of customer assets, risk disclosures, and KYC and anti-money laundering controls, while stating it cannot require crypto to trade on its platforms without Congress. Treasury withdrew a 2020 self-hosted wallet rule and a 2023 crypto mixer reporting rule, citing concerns over a chilling effect on legitimate activity, and Rain filed an application with the OCC to establish Rain National Trust Bank, following similar moves by Modern Treasury as community banks sue the OCC over federal trust charters for crypto companies. Ondo Finance also launched Ondo private markets with tokenized pre-IPO AI exposure, beginning with an unnamed pre-IPO AI business, offering tokenized notes linked to the company's economic performance rather than actual shares.

Strive purchased 2,000 bitcoin for approximately $169 million, nearly six times the 334 bitcoin buy that Strategy announced a day earlier. The company now holds 29,462 bitcoin, putting it within roughly 6,000 bitcoin of Marathon, the next largest holder in the corporate treasury space, and it paid an average of $84,422 per bitcoin this week. According to CEO Matt Cole, sales of the company's Seta preferred stock accounted for 61.5% of the capital raised, while warrant exercises generated another $56.7 million for the purchases. Strive now carries approximately $1.29 billion of Seta preferred stock with about $168 million in annual dividend obligations, and while it remains debt-free, those preferred shareholders are paid ahead of common shareholders at a dividend above 12%.

Nasdaq-listed Solana treasury company DeFi Development Corp. announced that its Solana holdings have reached 2.56 million SOL, with net asset value per share expected to rise by more than 100%.
