Metaplanet Goes Full Bitcoin Whale: Snaps Up 1,004 BTC in $800M Treasury Gamble

Tokyo-based investment firm Metaplanet just dropped a 10-figure bet on Bitcoin—adding 1,004 BTC to its reserves at today’s prices. The move pushes their total holdings past $800M, making them one of Asia’s largest corporate BTC hodlers.
Why it matters: While traditional finance still clutches its pearls over crypto volatility, Metaplanet’s aggressive accumulation mirrors MicroStrategy’s playbook—treating Bitcoin as the ultimate inflation hedge. Their Q2 purchase comes as institutional inflows hit 2025 highs.
The cynical take: Nothing says ’confidence in monetary policy’ like stockpiling decentralized assets while paying lip service to central bank partnerships. Someone’s hedging their bets—literally.
