Metaplanet Launches Miami Expansion to Turbocharge Bitcoin Revenue Streams

Metaplanet just dropped its latest power move—opening a Miami subsidiary solely focused on amplifying Bitcoin-based income.

Why Miami? The Crypto Capital Play

Miami’s not just sunshine and beaches anymore. It’s become the de facto hub for crypto innovation, and Metaplanet’s planting its flag right in the heart of it. The new subsidiary aims to leverage Miami’s pro-crypto regulatory environment and deep talent pool to scale Bitcoin operations—fast.

Bitcoin Strategy: Beyond the HODL

This isn’t about sitting on a pile of Bitcoin and hoping it moons. Metaplanet’s playing offense—building infrastructure, forging partnerships, and creating revenue streams that actually work in the real world. Think yield strategies, node operations, and maybe even some institutional-grade services. Because let’s be honest—traditional finance still can’t figure this stuff out without adding 200 pages of compliance paperwork.

The Bottom Line: Growth or Bust

Metaplanet’s doubling down on Bitcoin—and they’re doing it where it matters. Miami’s energy meets crypto’s potential. One thing’s clear: while Wall Street’s still debating whether Bitcoin is an asset class, Metaplanet’s already building the future around it. Funny how that works.

Bitcoin Japan Co. to Drive Domestic Adoption

The first subsidiary, Bitcoin Japan Co., Ltd., will operate as a wholly owned entity dedicated to advancing Bitcoin adoption within Japan. Metaplanet said the new unit will work with financial institutions to make it easier for them to bring Bitcoin into their investment plans. 

By setting it up as a separate company, Metaplanet wants to simplify compliance, make reporting clearer, and give regulators and partners a more straightforward way to deal with its bitcoin operations.

Many see the move as well-timed, since interest from big institutions in crypto exposure is steadily growing in Japan. The company emphasized that the domestic subsidiary will give its Bitcoin initiatives a dedicated platform to grow independently.

Miami-Based Unit for Bitcoin Derivatives

Alongside its Japanese expansion, Metaplanet also confirmed the launch of Metaplanet Income Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary under Metaplanet Holdings, Inc., based in Miami. This U.S. arm will focus on “bitcoin income generation” through derivatives and related activities.

The board has approved an initial capital allocation of $15 million for the Miami-based unit. The business will be kept separate from Metaplanet’s treasury holdings to improve governance and balance risk management. 

CEO Simon Gerovich described the operation as “the company’s engine of growth,” pointing to consistent and growing revenue since the derivatives business was first launched in late 2024.

Directors Dylan LeClair and Darren Winia will join Gerovich in leading the new entity. Metaplanet said the subsidiary is not expected to have a material impact on its 2025 results but pledged to provide additional disclosures in line with Tokyo Stock Exchange rules.

Expanding Global Footprint and Bitcoin Holdings

The U.S. build-out follows Metaplanet’s international equity offering earlier this year, which raised $1.4 billion, surpassing its initial $880 million target. Gerovich said the offering drew interest from sovereign wealth funds, hedge funds, and large mutual fund groups, calling it an endorsement of the firm’s Bitcoin strategy.

Last week, Metaplanet increased its Bitcoin holdings to 20,136 BTC, worth over $2.3 billion, further cementing its position among the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin holders, second only to Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy.

The launch of Bitcoin Japan Co. and Metaplanet Income Corp. shows the company’s clear plan to grow its Bitcoin presence worldwide while creating steadier, more reliable revenue.
