Metaplanet Doubles Down: Japan’s Crypto Pioneer Snaps Up 1,005 BTC, Launches $207M Zero-Coupon Bond for More Bitcoin
Tokyo’s Metaplanet just turbocharged its Bitcoin treasury—grabbing another 1,005 BTC while Wall Street hedge funds still debate 'store of value' memes.
Zero-cost capital meets hyperbitcoinization: The firm’s $207 million ordinary bond issue carries a 0% coupon, essentially printing free money to hoard more digital gold. Take that, negative-yielding sovereign debt.
Corporate balance sheets flip the script: While legacy finance plays musical chairs with ETF approvals, Metaplanet’s all-in move mirrors MicroStrategy’s playbook—leveraging traditional instruments to bypass fiat decay.
One question remains: when do we start calling these guys Bitcoin banks with extra steps?
