Metaplanet, listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, which previously operated in hotel development, quickly transformed into an investment powerhouse in Bitcoin. On June 16, the company announced its acquisition of 1,112 Bitcoin worth 117 million USD, bringing its total assets to 10,000 Bitcoin, achieving its 2025 goal six months ahead of schedule. The purchase was funded through the issuance of interest-free bonds worth 210 million USD, with proceeds earmarked for further Bitcoin acquisitions. The company now aims to gather 100,000 Bitcoin by the end of 2026 and 210,000 Bitcoin by 2027, through equity and bond issuances, reflecting a MicroStrategy model. Metaplanet's ambitious cumulative strategy highlights the growing demand from companies for Bitcoin as a treasury investment asset.
