Michael Saylor, CEO of MicroStrategy, has lauded Metaplanet for its Bitcoin treasury strategy, likening it to "Japan's MicroStrategy." Speaking at The Inaugural Bitcoin Treasuries Unconference in September 2024, Saylor predicted that Metaplanet could become Japan's most valuable company. Since April 2024, Metaplanet has integrated Bitcoin into its balance sheet, amassing over 29,000 BTC, making it the fourth-largest publicly traded company by Bitcoin holdings. While analysts commend the strategy's innovation, they caution about the inherent risks due to Bitcoin's price volatility.
