Metaplanet’s Ambition: 210,000 Bitcoins by 2027
Metaplanet’s Big Bitcoin Goals for 2027 – According to a recent Financial Times report, Metaplanet, the world’s fifth-largest Bitcoin treasury company, is exploring the possibility of acquiring a digital bank in Japan. This potential acquisition has ignited excitement within the crypto community, with one X user commenting, “That’s not just bullish — that’s next-level adoption.”
In an exclusive interview with the Financial Times, Simon Gerovich, CEO of Metaplanet and former hotel industry professional, revealed that the company is focused on accumulating as much Bitcoin (BTC) as possible. Gerovich explained that Metaplanet aims to use this growing BTC reserve to acquire cash-generating businesses, signaling a strategic expansion beyond just holding cryptocurrency.
The company hinted at plans to move into digital financial services, with the possible acquisition of a Japanese digital bank being the next big step. However, no further details have been released about the timing or scope of this plan.
Impressive Bitcoin Holdings and Ambitious Goals
Following its latest acquisition of 2,205 BTC valued at approximately $238.7 million announced on Monday, Metaplanet now holds an impressive 15,555 Bitcoins, securing its place as a major player in the Bitcoin treasury landscape.
For comparison, Michael Saylor’s Strategy remains the largest Bitcoin treasury, holding a massive 597,325 BTC. On July 7, Strategy announced an unrealized Bitcoin gain worth an astounding $14 billion, boosting its total BTC value to nearly $65 billion.
210,000 Bitcoins by 2027
Metaplanet has set a long-term target to acquire 210,000 Bitcoins by 2027, which represents a significant portion of Bitcoin’s total capped supply of 21 million coins. This ambitious goal reflects the company’s confidence in Bitcoin’s future and its plans to integrate cryptocurrency into broader financial services and business ventures.
As Metaplanet continues to grow its Bitcoin holdings and explores new acquisitions, the crypto world is watching closely to see how this innovative approach could influence Bitcoin adoption in Japan and beyond.
