Metaplanet’s board has authorized a capital infusion of up to $5 billion into its US subsidiary to aggressively expand its Bitcoin holdings, targeting accumulation of 210,000 BTC by 2027. The strategic move leverages US financial infrastructure to advance the company’s Bitcoin-first treasury strategy.
This expansion follows Metaplanet’s recent acquisition of 1,111 BTC, reinforcing its commitment to Bitcoin as a core corporate asset. The jurisdictional shift positions the US operations to maximize capital efficiency through deep financial markets, while Japan remains designated as the company’s research and development hub.
Industry analysts highlight the decision as part of a broader corporate Bitcoin adoption trend and flight-to-safety approach amid ongoing geopolitical uncertainties. The capital deployment aims to establish Metaplanet among institutional leaders in cryptocurrency treasury reserves.
