Metaplanet plans to acquire a digital bank in the second phase of its Bitcoin strategy

Foresight News reports, according to Cointelegraph, that the Japanese listed company Metaplanet plans to acquire a digital bank in the second phase of its Bitcoin strategy, which may include a digital bank in Japan. CEO Simon Gerovich recently stated in an interview, 'We see this as a Bitcoin gold rush, and we need to accumulate as much Bitcoin as possible... to reach escape velocity, making it difficult for others to catch up. We will have cash available for acquiring profitable businesses, perhaps acquiring a digital bank in Japan, and providing digital banking services that are superior to what is currently offered in retail.'
