#MetaplanetBTCPurchase

**Metaplanet Inc.**, a publicly-traded Japanese investment firm, is strategically accumulating **Bitcoin ($BTC)** as a primary treasury reserve asset, mirroring MicroStrategy's approach. Facing Japan's negative interest rates and a weak yen, the company views BTC as a superior hedge against currency devaluation and inflation.

Since April 2024, Metaplanet has executed multiple significant purchases. As of early June 2024, its **publicly disclosed holdings exceed 141 BTC**, valued over $10 million USD. This aggressive adoption signals growing corporate confidence in Bitcoin's long-term store-of-value proposition within Asia. The company plans continued acquisitions, funded through bond issuances and cash reserves, positioning itself as a key Bitcoin advocate in Japan's market. Its stock price has shown notable volatility linked to BTC movements.
