Venezuela's interim president, Rodriguez, has emphasized the importance of diplomatic dialogue with the United States as a means to resolve differences between the two nations. According to RTHK, Rodriguez expressed this sentiment in a letter to U.S. President Donald Trump, shared on social media on Saturday. He reiterated Venezuela's willingness to establish long-term relations with Washington based on mutual respect, equality, and international law, aiming to foster a cooperative agenda that benefits both countries. Venezuela severed diplomatic ties with the United States in January 2019. Earlier this year, in January, the U.S. military conducted operations in Venezuela, forcibly taking control of President Maduro, which led to significant changes in the country, including Rodriguez assuming the role of interim president. These developments have contributed to improved relations between the two countries, culminating in the recent announcement of restored diplomatic relations.

Hong Kong Legislative Council President and NPC Standing Committee member Starry Lee expressed her full support for Hong Kong's first five-year plan. NPC Deputy Chan Chun-ying pointed out that the development of emerging financial products such as stablecoins and virtual assets should be approached cautiously. Many financial institutions, including banks, securities firms, and insurance companies, have already used artificial intelligence, and the use of AI needs better regulation, including stricter oversight, to ensure Hong Kong's financial security and prevent any problems. Furthermore, Legislative Council member Wu Jiezhuang stated that the 15th Five-Year Plan represents the direction of national development for the next five years and beyond. In this new phase, Hong Kong should fully leverage its advantages, focus on building "four centers and one high ground," consolidate and enhance its position as an international financial, shipping, and trade center, and strive to become an international innovation and technology center. Hong Kong is currently the world's third-ranked international financial center, but it definitely has the opportunity to go further and become the second. (Hong Kong Economic Journal)

Michael Saylor's Strategy is considering acquiring more Bitcoin (BTC) in the upcoming weeks, leveraging funds from its STRC stock sales. According to Cointelegraph, Strategy's STRC preferred stock has emerged as a yield-based funding mechanism for Bitcoin acquisitions. This week's surge in STRC trading could potentially unlock approximately $302 million in proceeds. Strategy, led by Michael Saylor, holds around $50 billion in Bitcoin, the largest amount owned by any public company. The STRC stock, an income-focused preferred stock, was introduced in July 2025 to support the company's Bitcoin accumulation strategy. During its initial public offering, Strategy raised about $2.521 billion gross and $2.474 billion net, which was used to acquire 21,021 BTC at an average price of approximately $117,256. The company later expanded this model by launching a $4.2 billion STRC at-the-market (ATM) program on July 31, 2025, allowing for gradual sales of preferred shares based on market demand. The STRC mechanism is most effective when the stock trades near or above its $100 target. Strategy pays a variable monthly yield to investors, adjusting it to maintain the stock's proximity to its par value. A higher yield can support the price when it falls below par, while a lower yield can temper demand when it rises too far above it. For March 2026, the annualized STRC rate is 11.50%, or about $0.958 per share monthly. In essence, STRC converts investor demand for yield into funding for additional BTC purchases. In January, Strategy sold approximately 1.19 million STRC shares, generating $119.1 million in net proceeds, alongside $1.12 billion raised through MSTR sales. This capital was used to purchase 13,627 BTC for roughly $1.25 billion. In February, STRC proceeds amounting to $78.4 million facilitated the purchase of 2,486 BTC net. Strategy may soon raise over $300 million through STRC stock sales, potentially enabling Michael Saylor to acquire around 4,300 Bitcoin, as estimated by BitcoinQuant. This projection is based on STRC's trading activity this week, with BitcoinQuant's model indicating about $777 million in total volume, with approximately 97%, or $755 million, traded above the stock's $100 par value. Using a 40% capture rate, the model estimates around $302 million in net proceeds, sufficient to purchase about 4,334 BTC, based on average Bitcoin prices ranging from $68,000 to $73,000 during market hours. Friday alone witnessed a record $188 million in STRC trading volume, suggesting enough potential proceeds to fund the purchase of around 1,097 BTC, according to the same model. However, these figures remain speculative. Strategy's latest filing showed only $7.1 million in STRC sales contributing to a broader 3,015 BTC purchase. Whether this week's trading surge results in a significantly larger Bitcoin acquisition will become clearer in the company's next SEC filing, scheduled for release on March 9.
