Metaplanet Doubles Down: $2B Bitcoin Bet Signals Bullish Mega-Move

Tokyo's Metaplanet just dropped a nine-figure vote of confidence in Bitcoin—while Wall Street hedges.

The corporate whale's latest purchase rockets its BTC stash past the $2 billion mark, making it one of Asia's largest public holders. No "diversification" excuses here—just pure conviction.

Why This Matters

While traditional finance plays hot potato with ETFs, Metaplanet's all-in strategy mirrors MicroStrategy's early playbook. The move comes as Bitcoin consolidates near all-time highs—proving institutions still fear missing out more than they fear volatility.

Bonus Dig: Meanwhile, gold-backed ETFs just hit a 5-year outflow record. Oops.

Metaplanet has acquired 780 Bitcoin (BTC) for $92.5 million, raising its total holdings to 17,132 BTC worth about $2 billion at current prices. The Tokyo-listed company now ranks seventh globally among public corporate bitcoin holders. Metaplanet, which began accumulating bitcoin in April 2024, aims to hold over 210,000 BTC by 2027. The firm’s bitcoin business saw Q2 revenue jump 42.4% year-over-year to $7.6 million, with shares up 258.3% year-to-date.
