Metaplanet Lifts Bitcoin Stash by 555 BTC, Plans to Sell Debt to Buy More

Tokyo-based investment firm Metaplanet just executed a power move—bulking up its Bitcoin reserves by 555 BTC (worth ~$20M at current prices). Now they’re plotting to sell corporate bonds specifically to buy more. Because when life gives you negative-yielding debt, you swap it for hard money.

This brings their total stash to 1,287 BTC—a full 1% of MicroStrategy’s legendary hoard. The stock (TYO:3350) surged 9% on the news as traders cheered the ’if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em’ strategy against Japan’s crushing 0.25% interest rates.

Fun fact: Their CFO quit last month. The replacement? A Bitcoin maximalist.
