Japan’s Metaplanet Emerges as Asia’s Next Bitcoin Powerhouse
In a bold pivot from hospitality to digital gold, Japan-based Metaplanet has quietly but swiftly amassed a 10,000 BTC treasury—surpassing Coinbase and now ranking as the 9th-largest corporate Bitcoin holder globally .

What began with a few hundred BTC purchases evolved into aggressive accumulating through zero-interest bonds and stock offerings.

Stay tuned—if Metaplanet reaches its goals, Japan could become a major force in corporate crypto accumulation.
