Japanese company Metaplanet is preparing a new funding initiative to further increase its Bitcoin reserves.
The company plans to raise approximately $137 million in funding. This funding is intended to be used directly for Bitcoin purchases and to strengthen Metaplanet’s long-term crypto asset strategy.
Currently holding 35,102 BTC, Metaplanet ranks fourth globally among publicly traded companies in terms of Bitcoin holdings.
This move by the company indicates a growing trend among institutional investors to adopt Bitcoin as a “reserve asset,” particularly in the Asian market. Metaplanet management clearly demonstrates its confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term store of value potential through its “Bitcoin reserve” strategy.
According to market analysts, if the planned funding process is successfully completed, Metaplanet is expected to gradually and sustainably increase its Bitcoin purchases.
This situation could further increase the weight of digital assets on the company’s balance sheet. At the same time, this strategy stands out as an alternative treasury management approach for companies operating in traditional financial markets.
On the other hand, Metaplanet’s continued aggressive buying plans despite Bitcoin price fluctuations indicate that the company is focusing on long-term macroeconomic expectations rather than short-term price movements.
Experts believe that such large-scale institutional purchases could create a psychological boost for the market and accelerate institutional adoption of Bitcoin. Metaplanet’s next steps are being closely watched by both the Japanese crypto market and global investors.
