Why Metaplanet Is the Next MicroStrategy With BTC Yield of 155%?

by

As a seasoned crypto investor with a knack for spotting trends and a soft spot for Japanese tech companies, I find myself intrigued by Metaplanet’s Bitcoin acquisition strategy. With my portfolio heavily skewed towards tech stocks and digital currencies, I have witnessed firsthand the meteoric rise of MicroStrategy, whose Bitcoin-centric approach has been nothing short of breathtaking.

Metaplanet, a Japanese corporation, has been mirroring MicroStrategy’s approach when buying Bitcoin. This tactic has significantly increased its Bitcoin returns, nearly doubling its value since the start of the year. Following their initial purchase of Bitcoin back in September 2020, MicroStrategy’s stock price skyrocketed by an astounding 2200%. If Metaplanet maintains and increases its Bitcoin holdings during future market phases, it may experience a similar stock surge.

Metaplanet Bitcoin Holdings and Stock Action

Back in April 2024, a Japanese company unveiled its Bitcoin (BTC) acquisition plan for the first time. From May onwards, they’ve been making weekly purchases of Bitcoins without fail, amassing over 1,000 BTC by now.

Over the past half year, shares of Metaplanet have skyrocketed an astounding 500%, reaching 1,800 JPY, primarily due to their strategic approach to acquiring Bitcoin. As stated by CEO Simon Gerovich:

Currently, the increase in value from Metaplanet’s Bitcoin investments amounts to approximately 4.27 billion Japanese Yen (around $28 million USD). Remarkably, this gain surpasses the total market capitalization of the company as it stood at the start of the year.

Known Bitcoin Core developer Adam Back has also made public his investment in Japanese company Metaplanet (TYO:3350). As per Back, the market capitalization of Metaplanet varies between 5 to 7 times the worth of its Bitcoin assets, significantly increasing the influence of its treasury on the company’s overall valuation. Moreover, Metaplanet earns returns by selling out-of-the-money Bitcoin options, thereby improving its investment strategy.

Over the last six months, the company’s Bitcoin growth has been closely observed, with a particular focus on how the fluctuating market capitalization ratios and strategic option sell-offs are resulting in favorable returns for shareholders.

Clocking the BTC Yield of 160%

Metaplanet, a Japanese company, recently disclosed their Q3 Financial report showing an astounding 155% return on Bitcoin (BTC) for the previous quarter. To evaluate the success of their BTC purchasing approach and its impact on shareholders, they have introduced Bitcoin Yield as a key performance metric (KPI).

According to the company’s statement, this Key Performance Indicator (KPI) is designed to improve investors’ comprehension of the firm’s financing approach. In situations where Metaplanet decides to fund further Bitcoin acquisitions by offering common shares or convertible instruments, this KPI will provide clarity on these actions.

Lately, MicroStrategy has disclosed its Bitcoin acquisitions and reported an impressive 26% return on these investments this year. If Metaplanet mirrors MicroStrategy’s strategy, investors may anticipate substantial growth in the company’s stock value over the upcoming years.

As Donald Trump is set to become the U.S. President once again in January 2025, many investors anticipate a prosperous period for Bitcoin. Consequently, it’s increasingly probable that more businesses will incorporate Bitcoin into their financial reserves.
