Metaplanet’s Aggressive Bitcoin Acquisition Strategy Drives Stock Growth

In a bold move reflecting its aggressive investment strategy, Metaplanet, often compared to MicroStrategy, has significantly expanded its Bitcoin portfolio this October.

Over the past 15 days, the Japanese firm has added more than 300 BTC , leading to a remarkable 60% increase in its overall holdings.

On Tuesday, the company purchased an additional 106.976 BTC, investing around 1 billion Japanese yen as Bitcoin approaches the $66,000 threshold.

With this latest acquisition, Metaplanet now holds a total of 855.478 BTC, which translates to an investment of approximately ¥7.965 billion, resulting in an average purchase price of around ¥9.3 million per Bitcoin.

This surge in investment has had a positive impact on Metaplanet’s stock, which jumped by 15.71% to reach 1,105 JPY during the latest trading session. By mirroring MicroStrategy’s approach to Bitcoin, Metaplanet may see its stock value increase in a similar fashion.

The company’s strategy has proven effective, as its stock has skyrocketed by over 300% since it embraced Bitcoin investing in May 2024, making it an appealing option for those looking to invest in the cryptocurrency market indirectly.
