Metaplanet to Raise $62M to Purchase More Bitcoin

by

As a seasoned crypto investor with a penchant for Japanese culture and a knack for reading market trends, this recent move by Metaplanet piques my interest. Having weathered multiple bull and bear markets, I’ve learned that strategic partnerships and smart investments can significantly bolster one’s portfolio.

Metaplanet, a Japan-based investment company, announced its intention to gather around $62 million through a stock purchasing scheme. Any additional Bitcoin (approximately 1,142 BTC, currently valued at about $109 million) they might acquire will exceed their current holdings.

As a crypto investor, I received news today that the company is teaming up with EVO FUND, an investment management firm situated in the Cayman Islands. They’ve mentioned they will be issuing 29,000 SARs units at a price of 614 Japanese Yen each.

Metaplanet is moving forward with plans to gain more exposure to Bitcoin. They plan to do this by taking on debt and occasionally issuing new shares of stock. This will help them increase their Bitcoin holdings while minimizing their risk from a weakening Japanese yen. Additionally, the company has obtained licensing rights to introduce the Bitcoin Magazine in Japan, demonstrating their commitment to fostering the growth of Japan’s Bitcoin community.

Metaplanet acknowledges that Bitcoin is climbing higher, having reached an unprecedented peak of $99,645.39 on November 22. In response to Bitcoin’s recent price increases, the company has emphasized the urgency of expanding its Bitcoin holdings and has chosen to launch this fundraising campaign accordingly.

As a crypto investor, I’ve been keeping an eye on Metaplanet. If they successfully secure the full $62 million, they’re estimated to acquire around 652 extra Bitcoins in December.
