Japanese Crypto Firm Makes a Bold Bitcoin Splash—Hold on to Your Wallets! 🚀💸

Hold onto your hats, folks, because Metaplanet Inc.—yes, that quirky Japanese investment darling—has just gone full Bitcoin hysteria. They’ve scooped up another 1,088 BTC, bringing their total to a staggering 8,888. Because who doesn’t love a good numerology moment with their digital gold? 🎉✨

Bitcoin surge

And what a surge it is! The stock price shot up faster than a cat meme going viral, all thanks to Metaplanet’s latest genius move. This makes them the proud owners of nearly a billion dollars’ worth of BTC—$933 million, to be exact. Or, as I like to call it, more money than I’ll see in my lifetime (and I’ve been saving a penny since 1997). 💰🙄

Metaplanet Expands Bitcoin Holdings with This Latest Purchase

In a tweet (because apparently that’s how we brag now), dated June 2, 2025, they announced: “Metaplanet Acquires Additional 1,088 BTC, Total Holdings Reach 8,888 BTC.” Talk about good numerology vibes—seriously, 8,888! It’s like they’re playing Monopoly but with real money, and I’m definitely not on their property.

According to CEO Simon Gerovich, they bagged each bitcoin at an average price of $107,771—because, apparently, buying in at a bargain is overrated. The entire purchase cost them a cool $117.3 million. By comparison, their overall stash was acquired at an average of $93,354, making you wonder if they’re secretly bitcoin hoarders with a shoe box full of receipts.

So, what’s next? Probably a yacht, a private island, or just some more digital coins to make us all feel impoverished. Stay tuned, folks, because the crypto rollercoaster seems far from over—and I, for one, am ready to scream (or invest in something safer). 🤷‍♀️😂
