BUY NEO PEPE PROTOCOL 
Vivek Ramaswamy’s Strive Asset Management is joining the ETF bandwagon by formally filing the Strive Bitcoin Bond ETF with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In a 475A filing submitted on December 26th, Strive aims to leverage the changing investment landscape favoring Bitcoin, digital assets, and the blockchain.
According to the prospectus shared on the SEC website, the Strive team aims to offer investors access to MicroStrategy’s convertible funds. These funds are now popular thanks to a friendly political climate and the expected passage of friendly crypto regulations.
Strive’s primary investment strategy is to allocate at least 80% of its funds to Bitcoin, with the remaining on short-term money market instruments, like US government securities.

Strive Takes A Bold Step Towards Bitcoin-First Policy
Strive takes a bold investment step at a time when Bitcoin and digital assets are becoming more popular in the financial market. Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy, which leads the industry in Bitcoin adoption, has become the template for many up-and-coming investment houses looking to succeed.
Strive’s prospectus highlights its investing strategy that leverages MicroStrategy’s successes. A MicroStrategy-based Bitcoin investment thesis is now a popular template for many, and it helps Bitcoin continue to test the $100k level. In addition, there are also expectations that a Donald Trump presidency will be beneficial for the crypto niche.
Through its CEO, Matt Cole, Strive Funds has supported a Bitcoin strategy. In a recent statement, Cole explained that the company is exploring investments that will fit the current Bitcoin and blockchain-friendly administration.
In preparation for its involvement with Bitcoin ETF bonds, Strive has published a Bitcoin Primer on its official website, explaining the basics, including history.

Strive Investments Bitcoin Bonds ETF Strategy
According to its prospectus, Strive’s Fund is an actively managed ETF whose team will invest its assets through derivative instruments, options, and swaps to gain exposure to the convertible securities of MicroStrategy.
As part of its plan, the fund will invest at least 80% of its funds in Bitcoin. Strive, founded in 2022 by Ramaswamy, uses MicroStrategy as its benchmark, being the world’s largest and original Bitcoin treasury company. In short, Strive is offering its investors an opportunity to invest and potentially earn from Bitcoin without owning it or even enduring its highly volatile nature.
In addition to direct investments in Bitcoin, the company aims to specialize in other Bitcoin-related products to diversify its portfolio.
Bitcoin And Blockchain Continue To Gain Acceptance Among Firms
Using MicroStrategy’s investments as a template, Strive joins other firms to test new investment strategies that fit today’s financial developments.
Strive’s interest in Bitcoin ETFs will be helped by Ramaswamy’s background and his closeness to Trump’s administration. Along with Elon Musk, Ramaswamy was appointed to head a new agency called D.O.G.E., which aims to promote government efficiency.
