Metaplanet, a Japanese company known for its aggressive Bitcoin (BTC) acquisition strategy, is set to join the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) Japan Index by the end of February 28, 2025, according to CEO Simon Gerovich.
Metaplanet Joins Japan Index, Raises $26 Million for More BTC
The MSCI Japan Index tracks mid- and large-cap Japanese stocks and serves as a key benchmark for institutional investors worldwide.
Metaplanet’s inclusion is expected to increase its visibility, attract passive investment flows and validate its long-term growth strategy.
In addition to its listing on MSCI, Metaplanet managed to raise $26 million (4 billion yen) through the issuance of 0%, unsecured, non-guaranteed common bonds.
The funds will be used solely to purchase additional Bitcoin, strengthening Metaplanet’s position as Asia’s leading Bitcoin Treasury Company.
Gerovich emphasized the significance of the milestone at X, stating that being included in MSCI further strengthens Metaplanet’s place in global financial markets and underscores its commitment to Bitcoin as a strategic treasury asset.
Metaplanet has been compared to US-based firm Strategy, which pioneered the institutional Bitcoin treasury strategy. With its latest bond issuance, the firm is doubling down on its BTC accumulation strategy, aligning itself with the growing institutional interest in Bitcoin.
