Imagine a hidden financial giant waiting to be awakened. That's precisely how Shinpei Okuno, the strategic head of Metaplanet Capital, views Japan's largely undeveloped preferred stock market. As he recently shared on X, this niche, currently home to only a handful of corporate players like Ito En and SoftBank, is on the cusp of a revolutionary transformation. Okuno's vision? To breathe new life into this market by leveraging the power of Bitcoin. He believes that by introducing Bitcoin-backed financial products – such as the innovative STRF, STRK, and STRD instruments – Japan could unlock a floodgate of investor interest. The ultimate prize, according to Okuno, lies in companies adopting a Bitcoin reserve strategy to create compelling fixed-dividend products, setting the stage for a groundbreaking new chapter in Japanese financial .What's the missing piece in Japan's vast capital market? According to Shinpei Okuno of Metaplanet Capital, it's the underdeveloped preferred stock sector, a market with enormous untapped potential. Speaking on X, Okuno highlighted its current limited scope, with only a few major companies utilizing it. His groundbreaking proposition is to bridge this gap with Bitcoin. He argues that by offering financial products directly backed by Bitcoin, particularly instruments like STRF, STRK, and STRD (which, research confirms, are indeed perpetual preferred stocks offered by MicroStrategy/Strategy with fixed dividends, designed to allow companies to raise capital to buy more Bitcoin), Japan could attract a diverse and eager investor base. The true game-changer, he emphasizes, would be for Bitcoin-holding companies to issue fixed-dividend products, offering investors a stable return tied to the world's leading cryptocurrency.
