【Metaplanet Denies Selling Bitcoin】
Today many people are spreading FUD about Metaplanet because on-chain data shows that within the past 24 hours, they transferred out 5,014 units of $BTC , worth about $322 million.
After the news went viral on social media, CEO Simon Gerovich stepped out to clarify directly:
“This is just a routine custody operation—no Bitcoin has been sold. Our current holdings still total 43,000 BTC.”
Moreover, for Bitcoin transfers exceeding $300 million, the transaction fees were only about $8—once again demonstrating the efficiency of moving large assets across borders with Bitcoin, which is in no way comparable to traditional banks.
However, what’s truly worth关注 is that Metaplanet originally planned to hold 100,000 BTC by the end of 2026, but it currently has only 43,000 BTC, and there hasn’t been any continued accumulation recently.
If they can’t stockpile a large amount even at this relatively low level, then achieving the 100,000 BTC goal by year-end once the BTC price rises will likely be even harder.
Do you think Metaplanet still has a chance to complete its target this year?
