Metaplanet Repays ¥2B Debt Early as Bitcoin Holdings Surge to $344M

A clear upward trend in Metaplanet‘s Bitcoin holdings began in late February 2025, marking its most active buying period so far. While many investors were panic selling, Metaplanet took the opposite approach, buying more and showing confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term value.

Market Woes Hit Stock Price

However, the timing hasn‘t been easy. As Bitcoin’s price dropped, Metaplanet‘s stock fell 20% in a single day—reflecting investor concern about the company’s heavy exposure to crypto. At the same time, Bitcoin itself plunged 10% in 24 hours, falling to $74,600. The drop came amid growing fears of a global trade war and marked Bitcoins lowest price in weeks.

Bitcoin dominance also rose to 63%, its highest level since early 2021, as investors moved away from altcoins and into Bitcoin during the market selloff.

Despite the market downturn, Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich stood by the companys Bitcoin-focused vision. In a recent post on X, he wrote:

While the world panics, Metaplanet is buying the dip with both hands. You decide if you want to follow!
