Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has reached a major milestone by accumulating 10,000 Bitcoin, overtaking Coinbase in corporate BTC holdings. The move signals Metaplanet’s aggressive strategy to position itself as a leading institutional holder in the crypto space.
The firm’s latest purchase boosts its total Bitcoin reserves past the U.S.-based exchange giant, marking a significant shift in corporate crypto investment trends. Metaplanet’s strategy mirrors that of MicroStrategy, with Bitcoin at the core of its treasury model.
Metaplanet has consistently acquired Bitcoin in sizable tranches since the beginning of the year, capitalizing on market dips and citing long-term value preservation. The company now ranks among the top global corporate holders of BTC, reflecting growing institutional confidence in the asset.
Analysts view Metaplanet’s bold accumulation as part of a broader trend of international firms adopting Bitcoin as a strategic reserve. With crypto markets showing renewed momentum, Metaplanet’s aggressive stance could inspire similar moves among peers in Asia and beyond.
