- SNB President Martin Schlegel cited liquidity and volatility risks as reasons for not including bitcoin in the Swiss central bank’s reserves.
- A 1% bitcoin allocation in 2015 would have nearly doubled the SNB’s portfolio returns with minimal volatility increase, according to the Bitcoin Initiative.
- The Swiss National Bank has bitcoin exposure through various U.S. companies that hold bitcoin corporate treasuries, including shares of Strategy, Tesla, and MARA Holdings.

212Swiss National Bank Rejects Calls to Add Bitcoin Reserves
No Bitcoin at the SNB, but MicroStrategy in the portfolio
Not new, but still interesting:
In the foreseeable future, the SNB is unlikely to build up a Bitcoin reserve or buy it directly. $BTC (-0,3%) directly. Funnily enough, however, it holds a position in MicroStrategy ($MSTR (+5,34%) ) - and is thus indirectly invested in Bitcoin ($BTC (-0,3%) ) indirectly.


21 Capital - New "MicroStrategy"?
It's getting wild again😂
Under the leadership of Brandon Lutnick - the son of the current US Secretary of Commerce and chairman of the investment bank Cantor Fitzgerald - the Japanese SoftBank Group, the stablecoin giant Tether and the crypto exchange Bitfinex are cooperating to invest billions in $BTC (-0,3%) to invest billions in A company called 21 Capitalwhich will hold around 3 billion US dollars in Bitcoin from the outset and serve as a listed "Bitcoin purchase vehicle".
21 Capital is to be founded from the outset with the sole purpose of buying and holding Bitcoin👀
21 Capital is designed as an acquisition company for Bitcoin - comparable in essence to the business model of $MSTR (+5,34%). It will be implemented via SPAC Cantor Equity Partners. This listed shell company has raised US$ 200 million in fresh capital and will merge with a new company - 21 Capital. This SPAC deal means that 21 Capital can be listed directly on the stock exchange without a traditional IPO:
According to the Financial Times and official figures, the initial bitcoin investment adds up to around 3 billion US dollars. Specifically, Tether is providing US$ 1.5 billion, SoftBank US$ 900 million and Bitfinex US$ 600 million - each in the form of Bitcoin transfers to the new company. These Bitcoin transfers are valued at a reference price of USD 85,000 per BTC, and in return the partners receive shares in 21 Capital at a price of USD 10 per share. Through this structure, investors effectively swap part of their Bitcoin holdings for ownership shares in the new company.
As a result, 21 Capital will launch with over 42,000 BTC and become the third largest Bitcoin treasury worldwide, behind $MSTR (+5,34%) and $MARA (+2,35%) and .
It was also announced that none other than Jack Mallers (founder of Strike) will take on the role of CEO.
Investment strategy: build up and expand Bitcoin reserve
Similar to the Strategy model, 21 Capital will not stop at the initial investment, but will continue to buy more Bitcoin. The business model of a "Bitcoin Treasury Company" consists of raising fresh money via the capital markets and converting it into BTC. Accordingly, the Lutnick consortium is already planning additional financing measures: An issue of convertible bonds worth USD 350 million is planned, as well as a private placement of shares worth USD 200 million in order to acquire more Bitcoin on the market in the next step. According to the official update, the target figures for the bond have even been raised to USD 385 million. This mix of debt and equity is exactly in line with the strategy MicroStrategy has pursued in recent years - Michael Saylor has repeatedly diluted shares and issued bonds to increase his company's Bitcoin position. The press release states that the company is designed to accumulate as much Bitcoin as possible and to steadily increase the Bitcoin holdings per share.
This means that future capital increases will be consciously accepted (even if they dilute the shares of existing shareholders) as long as the fresh capital is used to acquire more BTC. This should be worthwhile for shareholders, as every dollar invested increases the value of the Bitcoin treasury disproportionately - and therefore the share value in the long term. Or as Jack Mallers puts it: "We believe Bitcoin is the answer, and Twenty One is the way we are bringing that solution to the public markets. Our mission is simple: we want to become the most successful company in Bitcoin... A public stock built by Bitcoiners, for Bitcoiners".
There is no traditional core business; growth is to be generated exclusively through value appreciation and the increase in Bitcoin reserves.

@stefan_21 What do you think of the $MSTY? Bruce also made a video about it.
Today we witnessed the biggest insider trades in history.
Boy, oh boy. Donnie's circle raked in billions today.
$VUSA (+0,79%)
$CSNDX (+1,22%)
$NVDA (+4,72%)
$RH (+1,44%)
$MSTR (+5,34%)

Is Bitcoin decoupling a little from the traditional markets?
While there is pure panic on Wall Street, the supposed risk-on asset is still doing relatively well today... $BTC (-0,3%) is still doing relatively well today... what do you think?
- Is Bitcoin increasingly seen as a risk-off asset?
- Or buy $MSTR (+5,34%) and $GME (+1,64%) just in the background?😂
Metaplanet: The hidden Bitcoin play with stock split potential
Metaplanet ($3350 (-3,37%)) has caused quite a stir in recent months - not only because of its growing Bitcoin holdings, but also because of the recent announcement of a 1:10 stock split. But why is this interesting?
1️⃣ What does Metaplanet do?
Metaplanet is a Japanese investment company that has been increasingly focusing on Bitcoin since 2023. This is very similar to MicroStrategy, which holds Bitcoin as a strategic asset. Metaplanet therefore allows you to invest indirectly in Bitcoin without buying crypto directly.
2️⃣ The stock split - what does it mean?
Metaplanet carried out a 1:10 split on 01.04.2025. This means:
✅ The share price becomes visually more favorable (better liquidity)
✅ The number of shares increases tenfold
✅ The market value of the company remains the same
Splits often lead to higher demand, as more investors feel psychologically attracted - a possible catalyst for share price increases.
3️⃣ Why is Metaplanet exciting?
✔ Bitcoin exposure without a crypto wallet
✔ Japanese regulation (high transparency)
✔ Still relatively unknown = potential for early investors
Metaplanet currently holds 117 BTC and plans to increase further. If Bitcoin rises in the coming years, Metaplanet could also benefit massively.
4️⃣ Note the risks!
⚠ Highly volatile - not a safe investment
⚠ Strong focus on BTC - if BTC falls, Metaplanet will also suffer
⚠ Japanese market - note trading hours & regulation
Conclusion: Interesting Bitcoin proxy
If you want to profit indirectly from Bitcoin without having to deal with wallets or exchanges, you could put Metaplanet on your watchlist. The stock split could provide short-term movement - but in the long term, everything depends on Bitcoin.

The company now owns over 528,000 Bitcoin.

📈 Metaplanet: Japan's MicroStrategy? - Bitcoin bet, stock split & future prospects 🇯🇵💰
Metaplanet ($3350 (-3,37%)) is causing a stir! The Japanese company, originally active in the real estate sector, has radically changed its strategy and now relies heavily on Bitcoin as its primary reserve currency - following the example of MicroStrategy.
🔥 The most important developments:
✅ Bitcoin purchases: Metaplanet has further increased its BTC holdings and now holds over 141 BTC. The strategy is clear: buy more Bitcoin and profit in the long term.
✅ Share split on April 1, 2025: Metaplanet is carrying out a 10:1 share split. This means that existing shareholders will receive ten new shares for each share. This will reduce the price per share without affecting the market capitalization, which could make the share more attractive to investors.
✅ Growth trajectory: Metaplanet is positioning itself as a Bitcoin holding company and could play a similar role in Asia as MicroStrategy in the US.
📊 Share price performance & potential
Since the realignment, the share has staged an impressive rally. With its strong dependence on Bitcoin, it could continue to rise - or fluctuate sharply if BTC corrects.
🚀 Opportunity or risk?
Metaplanet could establish itself as Japan's leading Bitcoin stock. But the strategy harbors risks if the Bitcoin price falls sharply.
💬 What do you think? Is Metaplanet a future MicroStrategy clone or is it still a speculative bet?
