Investors appeared to like the move, with #metaplanet stock rallying 10.8% to $0.59 (92 Japanese yen) before cooling off to $0.57 (89 Japanese yen) at midday on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on June 11, according to Google Finance.

The firm has seen its stock soar nearly fivefold since it unveiled its Bitcoin investment strategy on April 9, 2024.

Its first Bitcoin purchase came on April 23 at 97.85 Bitcoin, followed by an additional 19.87 Bitcoin on May 10, according to Bitcoin Treasuries. It is now the 30th largest corporate holder of Bitcoin in the world.

Similar to MicroStrategy — the largest corporate Bitcoin shareholder — Metaplanet iterated on May 13 that it’ll adopt an “entire range of capital market instruments” to bolster its Bitcoin reserves.

The firm adopted the strategy to hedge against Japan’s worsening debt burden and the fastly-depreciating Japanese yen.

Japan’s debt-to-GDP ratio of 261% is the worst among developed countries, Metaplanet said.

The Japanese yen has fallen almost 35% against the United States dollar since January 2021, while Bitcoin is up nearly 200% against the Japanese yen over the last 12 months.
However, it’s still far below the Bitcoin holdings of the Michael Saylor-run firm, which holds 214,400 Bitcoin — amounting to 1.02% of the roughly 21 million Bitcoin that will ever enter into circulation.

Metaplanet is currently only available on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, walling out access to U.S. investors but efforts are being made to change that.

💥💥💥 Why is #bitcoin☀️ Price Up Today? $BTC Price Follows Asia’s #Nikkei 225, Hits $60.5K

Bitcoin (BTC) Surges Over 3%, Following Asia's Nikkei 225 in Bullish Rebound

- Bitcoin (BTC) saw a strong recovery on Tuesday, closely mirroring Asia’s Nikkei 225 index. The leading cryptocurrency jumped over 3% in the past 24 hours, trading around $60.5k during the early Asian session. This bullish move set the tone for the broader crypto market, with major coins like Binance Coin ($BNB ), XRP, and Tron ($TRX ) also gaining.

- The recent Bitcoin price surge has alleviated fears of further market capitulation, encouraging more investors to double down on their BTC holdings. The Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index also saw an uptick, rising from 28 to 30, indicating a decrease in fear among market participants.

Bitcoin Whales Increase Holdings

- On-chain data from Santiment reveals that Bitcoin addresses holding between 100 and 1,000 BTC have collectively added approximately 94.7k coins over the past six weeks. This cohort of Bitcoin whales now controls about 3.97 million BTC.

- Among these whales is #metaplanet Inc., a Japanese publicly traded company, which recently acquired an additional 57.273 BTC, valued at approximately $3.4 million. This purchase brings Metaplanet’s total Bitcoin holdings to around 360.368 BTC.

- Another significant whale purchase involved 347 BTC, worth over $16 million, from Binance within the last 24 hours. Meanwhile, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs, led by Fidelity’s FBTC, recorded a net inflow of about 2,139 BTC, equivalent to around $125 million on Monday.

What’s Next?

- According to well-known crypto analyst Benjamin Cowen, Bitcoin is likely to continue gaining dominance over altcoins in the near term, with expectations of Bitcoin’s market dominance rising towards 60%.

- Bitcoin's recent positive movement isn't a clear breakout yet. To maintain bullish momentum, it must close above the 50-day and 200-day MAs; otherwise, it risks dropping below $60k before attempting another rally.
