Metaplanet Overtakes Tesla in Bitcoin Holdings Amid 5% Share Plunge – A Bold Crypto Power Move
Tokyo’s Metaplanet just pulled a corporate mic-drop—swiping Tesla’s Bitcoin crown while its own shares tanked 5%. Talk about high-risk, high-reward theater.
The Bitcoin Shuffle
While Elon’s EV giant waffles on crypto, this Japanese upstart doubled down. Their latest purchase flips Tesla’s stash, proving institutional FOMO isn’t just a Western phenomenon.
Market Irony Alert
Shares slid anyway—because Wall Street still punishes volatility unless it’s their own casino chips at stake. Meanwhile, Bitcoin hodlers shrug: 'Welcome to the whale club.'
One hedge fund manager yawns: 'Another day, another balance sheet gambit.' But for crypto bulls? This is validation wearing a suit.
Metaplanet stock performance
Despite the bullish trajectory in crypto holdings, Metaplanet shares slid over 5% 1,509 yen (about $10.40), according to Google Finance data. This extends a week-long decline of more than 15%.
Still, the firm’s broader trend remains strong.
Over the past month, Metaplanet shares have climbed nearly 60%, and year-to-date performance shows an impressive gain of 322%, suggesting rising investor confidence in the firm’s Bitcoin-first approach.
