Metaplanet CEO sets Bit coin reserve New Year goal

Simon Gerovich said that Metaplanet broke multiple records and consolidated its position as the leading Bitcoin reserve company in Asia through its Bitcoin reserve strategy between 2024. In 2025, the company will continue to progress and drive innovation.

He emphasized that the company will use the most value-added capital market tool, which is Bit, to achieve profitability:

We will expand the Bitcoin holdings to 10,000 coins and strengthen cooperation with relevant partners to promote the widespread adoption and popularization of Bitcoin in Japan and globally.

And to further explore the influence and innovative opportunities of Metaplanet in Japan and the Bit ecosystem.

Gerovich once revealed in a tweet last week that he will launch a Japanese Bit magazine in the first quarter of 2025, and plans to transform the Royal Oak Hotel into a Bit hotel in the third quarter, as a center for promoting Bit education, community, and innovation.

Currently, according to the data from BitcoinTreasuries, as the largest Bitcoin holding company in Asia, Metaplanet currently holds 1,762 Bit coins with an average price of $77,196, ranking 15th among publicly listed companies holding Bitcoin, accounting for approximately 0.008% of the total supply.

Faced with such far-reaching goals, Gerovich also reveals confidence between the lines.

We are not just building a company, but also driving a movement. Stay tuned, 2025 will be another milestone year!

In 2024, Metaplanet's stock price remains the global champion of returns

Upon closer inspection, Gerovich's record-breaking claims are not unfounded. In the previous 2024 review, Metaplanet truly broke many records, as follows:

Among listed companies with a market capitalization exceeding 250 million US dollars and a daily trading volume exceeding 50 million US dollars in 2024, the stock price ranks first in terms of annual investment return rate, approximately 2600%.

Market capitalization growth rate ranks first in the Japanese market, soaring more than 6000%

Average daily trading volume grew 388 times compared to last year

As a company that takes advantage of its own tax avoidance advantages, Metaplanet has also been actively cooperating with QCP Capital, a digital asset trading company in Singapore, and SBI VC Trade, a subsidiary of SBI Holding, in recent months. Through options roll-up transactions and airdrops of Bit to investors, it can be seen that it is committed to establishing itself as a center for Bit reserves in Asia.
