The Japanese holding company Metaplanet Inc. (TSE: 3350) is currently causing quite a stir on the markets - and for good reason: the company is pursuing an increasingly aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy that is reminiscent of MicroStrategy for many investors.
Today, the stock posted a strong daily gain of over 14%, reaching a new 3-month high of JPY 783. This upward trend did not come out of nowhere: Metaplanet recently purchased 1,004 BTC worth around USD 104 million and now holds a total of over 7,800 BTC. This puts the company ahead of El Salvador - at least in terms of Bitcoin holdings.
💰 The purchase was financed via zero-coupon bonds, which underlines the management's long-term optimism and strong commitment. Metaplanet already generated around 88% of its revenue from Bitcoin options in the first quarter of 2025 - a clear signal that this company means business.
While many players are still hesitant, Metaplanet is now positioning itself as one of the most aggressive BTC proponents in Asia - and potentially beyond.
🔍 Why is this exciting for investors?
- Potential Bitcoin proxy investment outside the US
- Exposure to the crypto market via regulated stocks
- Comparable dynamics to MicroStrategy in the early days
📊 Conclusion: If you are betting on the long-term success of Bitcoin and are looking for an exciting play in the Asian market, Metaplanet should definitely be on your radar. The current rally could be just the beginning.
