Japanese investment firm Metaplanet, following in the footsteps of MicroStrategy in the US, continues to aggressively accumulate Bitcoin as a treasury asset. According to their latest announcement, they purchased an additional 1,009 BTC for approximately $110 million, bringing their total holdings to 20,000 BTC.
This move comes on the heels of recently announced plans to issue new shares to potentially purchase $835 million worth of BTC. The company is positioning Bitcoin as a hedge against both inflation and currency depreciation amid low interest rates and a weak yen in Japan.
Having made regular purchases throughout 2025, Metaplanet has now become one of the world's largest institutional BTC holders. The price is currently around $107,500, and BTC returns have exceeded 479% since the beginning of the year. While this aggressive strategy offers significant potential for gains, it also carries significant risk in potential pullbacks.
Do you think this wave of institutional BTC accumulation will grow, or is it too risky? What are your thoughts on this?
