Bitcoin Strategy and Impact on Metaplanet Stock Market 

The adoption of the Bitcoin strategy has been a game changer for Metaplanet’s stock market year-to-date. According to the latest market data, Metaplanet’s shares have risen around 500 percent YTD. 

In the past 24 hours, the company’s stock market rallied over 13 percent to trade at about ¥1,042, following the announcement of an additional Bitcoin acquisition. As a result, the company’s valuation has now risen to over $107 million and is likely to rally further amid the ongoing macro Bitcoin’s bull run.

Furthermore, Bitcoin has been identified as a global asset that is fast digitizing the gold market and thus outpacing other asset classes. For instance, the US Spot Bitcoin ETFs have rallied to over $60 billion in assets under management  (AUM) in the past few months of operation.

As Coinpedia previously reported, MicroStrategy has remained committed to its Bitcoin strategy and currently holds over 252,220 BTCs, which is more than 1 percent of the total supply.
