Metaplanet Buys Another 1,004 Bitcoin, Lifts Holdings to Over $800M Worth of BTC

Tokyo-based investment firm Metaplanet just dropped another $42 million on Bitcoin—because apparently, traditional equities are too mainstream. The latest 1,004 BTC purchase brings their total stash to a staggering 11,000+ coins, now worth over $800 million at current prices.

Why the obsession? Blame Japan’s negative interest rates and a weakening yen. While Wall Street hedgies fret over inflation, Metaplanet’s all-in crypto bet looks either brilliantly contrarian or recklessly early. No half measures here.

Fun fact: This puts them ahead of Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy in BTC-per-market-cap terms. Take that, corporate HODLers.
