Metaplanet Stock Price Shoots 21% To New All-Time High on Fresh Bitcoin Bets

Metaplanet stock price has continued to dominate the Tokyo Stock Exchange, surging another 21% today and hitting an all-time high of 1423 JPY. This surge follows the company’s announcement of a recent purchase of 1,088 Bitcoins, propelling it into the ranks of the top ten corporate Bitcoin holders. With this rally, the stock has surged an impressive 255% since the start of 2025.

Metaplanet Stock Dominates Tokyo Stock Exchange

While the Japanese bond market is facing a “Greece-like crisis”, investors of Metaplanet are having a gala period as the stock has gained 164% over the past month. Besides, with its consistent Bitcoin purchases, the firm is dominating the Tokyo Stock Exchange, clocking the largest trading volumes while beating out the top firms in Japan.

As Japan’s stock and bond market looks fragile, investors are finding a safe haven in Metaplanet, which serves as a Bitcoin proxy bet. Furthermore, market analysts believe that despite this massive rally in Metaplanet stock price, the mNAV shows that it’s still not overvalued at this point.

Apart from the Japanese market, the stock is also performing exceptionally well on German and US indexes. On Monday, the MTPLF stock price closed 15.31% up at $8.36 in the US. Similar to Metaplanet, Michael Saylor’s Strategy also announced purchasing 705 Bitcoins for $75 million in fresh investment. However, the MSTR stock has given moderate gains of under 1% on Monday.

Metaplanet provides Proof of Reserves

Earlier this week, Strategy founder Michael Saylor called Proof of Reserves a bad idea while speaking at the Bitcoin 2025 Conference in Las Vegas. He said that by doing so, companies are exposing themselves to security threats and risks. However, Saylor faced strong criticism from the Bitcoin community over his remarks.

Unlike Strategy, Metaplanet has decided to provide proof of reserve, with CEO Simon Gerovich showing all of his holdings on-chain. This transparency could boost further among shareholders.

Japanese Bond Market Crisis Deepens, Metaplanet Stock Surge to Continue?

Japan’s 30-year government bond prices have plummeted by 45% since 2019, driven by a sharp rise in yields. The 30-year bond yield has climbed approximately 275 basis points, nearing its highest level since the bond’s introduction in 2007, noted The Kobeissi Letter. Over the past year alone, the yield has surged by 100 basis points, resulting in significant unrealized losses for financial institutions holding these bonds.

Being a Bitcoin proxy bet, the Metaplanet stock price could likely see further upside. Furthermore, if BTC price gains, it could lead to even more investor participation.
