#Metaplanet Plans $880M Share Sale for $BTC Purchases

Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has approved plans to raise $880 million through an international share offering, with $837 million earmarked for $BTC acquisitions between September and October. The Tokyo-listed company will issue up to 555 million new shares to offshore institutional investors.

The move expands Metaplanet's existing $BTC treasury strategy, which currently holds 18,991 $BTC worth approximately $2.1 billion. The company aims to accumulate over 210,000 $BTC by 2027, representing more than 1% of the cryptocurrency's total supply, through its ambitious expansion plans.

Metaplanet has been upgraded from small-cap to mid-cap status in FTSE Russell's index, earning inclusion in the FTSE Japan Index and FTSE All-World Index. This places the firm alongside major global companies and enhances its institutional investor appeal.

The fundraising follows Metaplanet's "#Bitcoin Income Business" model, which generates revenue by selling covered call options on its $BTC holdings. An additional $45 million from the share sale will expand this income-generating strategy, designed to protect against #Japan's weakening yen and inflation risks while building long-term corporate value in the $BTC treasury space for Japanese #investors.
