Through repeated purchases of Bitcoin, the company has been recognized as a Japanese equivalent to MicroStrategy, a renowned name in this domain. Furthermore, with this latest acquisition, it maintains its place among the top six corporations globally that hold significant amounts of Bitcoin.

Metaplanet Stock Tumbles

Despite purchasing Bitcoin lately, Metaplanet’s stock decreased by nearly 4% in Tokyo on Monday, with an additional drop of approximately 20% over the past week. The price of Metaplanet’s shares, formerly a hotelier and now known as a Bitcoin-holding company, was nearing a four-month low.

Metaplanet’s stocks have been consistently declining, much like Bitcoin’s value, which dropped following a wave of short-term traders cashing out their investments as the BTC price peaked at unprecedented highs in August. At the time of writing, Bitcoin was hovering around $111,000 according to information from CoinMarketCap.
