MetaPlanet, a Tokyo-based investment firm, has recently made headlines by significantly increasing its Bitcoin holdings. In June 2025, the company announced an additional purchase of 250 million yen (approximately $1.6 million USD) worth of Bitcoin, reinforcing its strategic pivot toward digital assets. This latest acquisition brings MetaPlanet’s total Bitcoin holdings to over 141 BTC, valued at nearly $10 million. Inspired by companies like MicroStrategy, MetaPlanet views Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and a store of value amid global financial uncertainty. The firm’s aggressive BTC strategy reflects growing institutional interest in cryptocurrency in Japan and globally. MetaPlanet’s stock surged following the announcement, highlighting strong investor support for its crypto-focused direction and belief in Bitcoin's long-term potential.
