🔷 Metaplanet increased its BTC reserves to 44,000 $BTC
📋 Facts:
• Japan’s Metaplanet sold 10,000 BTC, then bought 11,000 BTC in Q3
• Net increase: +1,000 BTC, bringing holdings to 44,000 BTC as of September 30
• Reason for the sale: to test its ability to convert BTC into cash
• Proceeds from selling 10,000 BTC exceeded its total debt obligations
• Realized a carried-forward capital loss for US tax purposes
• New policy: 85–90% of assets in BTC, 10–15% in M&A and income-generating assets
• 555 Million Plan: 100,000 BTC by the end of 2026, 210,000 BTC by the end of 2027 (1% of the supply)

🧠 Metaplanet is making an interesting move: it sold 10,000 BTC to demonstrate liquidity, then bought 11,000 BTC back. This isn’t panic—it’s a strategic move to obtain a credit rating and expand its fundraising options. The new policy (85–90% in BTC) demonstrates commitment, while the ambitious plan (210,000 BTC by 2027 = 1% of the supply) makes Metaplanet a serious player. If the company obtains a credit rating and access to corporate bonds, it could become Asia’s equivalent of MicroStrategy.

⚠️ Risks: the need to raise capital continuously; regulatory risks in Japan.
