Catenaa, Friday, January 10, 2025 – Metaplanet, a Tokyo-listed investment firm, announced plans to increase its Bitcoin holdings to over 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025, according to its CEO. The ambitious target represents a significant leap from its current holdings of 1,761.98 BTC.
The company aims to solidify its position in the cryptocurrency market as part of a broader strategy to diversify and expand its digital asset portfolio. Metaplanet’s leadership cited confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term potential as a store of value and hedge against economic uncertainties.
The announcement underscores a growing trend among institutional investors in Japan and beyond to deepen exposure to Bitcoin amid expectations of rising adoption and price recovery in 2025. The move also reflects the increasing role of digital assets in corporate treasury strategies.
Metaplanet’s expansion plan will likely involve both direct purchases and strategic partnerships with other cryptocurrency firms. However, details on how the company plans to finance the acquisitions were not disclosed.
This development comes as Bitcoin’s price remains volatile, with market analysts predicting potential gains as economic conditions stabilize. Metaplanet’s aggressive acquisition strategy could further influence institutional interest in the cryptocurrency market.
