Bitcoin Dips Under $116K—Metaplanet’s 775 BTC Purchase Signals Prime Buying Window?

Bitcoin's price stumbles below $116K—just as Metaplanet snaps up 775 BTC in a bold accumulation play. Is this the dip before the rip?

Market jitters or golden opportunity? While retail investors panic-sell, institutional whales like Metaplanet are loading up. The math doesn't lie: 775 freshly acquired coins suggest someone's betting big on a rebound.

Timing the bottom? Good luck. But when corporations start treating BTC like a balance sheet staple, maybe—just maybe—the 'buy high, sell low' crowd should take notes. After all, nothing screams confidence like nine-figure purchases during a pullback.

Remember: Wall Street buys the rumor, sells the news—and buys the dip while you're still reading the fine print.

Metaplanet Expands Bitcoin Treasury

While markets remain cautious, Tokyo-based Metaplanet Inc. has doubled down on its Bitcoin strategy. The firm announced the purchase of 775 BTC at an average price of ¥17,720,023 per coin (about $122,000), bringing its total holdings to 18,888 BTC.

Metaplanet’s aggressive accumulation shows growing institutional conviction in bitcoin as a treasury asset. Despite short-term volatility, the company has posted impressive Bitcoin yield metrics, including a 129.4% gain from April to June 2025 and 29.3% gains from July through mid-August.

Such moves reflect how corporate players continue to use dips as entry points, reinforcing the narrative of Bitcoin as a long-term hedge against inflation and currency depreciation.

Market watchers remain split on whether this correction is a setup for the next leg higher or a warning of deeper downside.

If Bitcoin can reclaim $117,261 as support, momentum could accelerate toward $127,000, the first major resistance flagged by on-chain cost basis models. Beyond that, the +2σ band around $144,000 represents the zone where euphoria typically peaks before corrections emerge.

For now, Bitcoin’s fate rests on holding $115,000 support. With institutional buying, ETF inflows, and corporate treasury adoption showing resilience, many see the current pullback less as a peak and more as an opportunity for strategic accumulation.
