Metaplanet Remains a Loyal Bitcoin Fan: Firm Plans More Purchases Despite Market Crash


At a time when the entire cryptocurrency market is reeling from uncertainty and Bitcoin prices are experiencing dramatic drops, some investors still believe in the long-term potential of the oldest cryptocurrency. One of them is the Japanese company Metaplanet, which has decided to continue its Bitcoin accumulation strategy, despite the recent massive market decline and losses for its shareholders.


Simon Gerovich, CEO of Metaplanet, has clearly declared that his company remains loyal to Bitcoin and plans to further increase its holdings of this cryptocurrency. “The company’s strategy is unchanged. We will continue to steadily accumulate Bitcoin, expand revenue and prepare for the next phase of growth,” Gerovich said on the social network X (formerly Twitter). This determined stance comes as the broader cryptocurrency market has suffered one of its biggest declines since 2022.


Metaplanet is one of the largest public companies with a large stake in Bitcoin, holding over 35,000 BTC, making it the fourth-largest corporate holder of the cryptocurrency. Although the company’s shares on the Tokyo Stock Exchange have fallen by more than five percent, its determination has not wavered. Its average purchase price for Bitcoin is currently around $107,716, while the current price of BTC is around $65,424.


Despite the general fear and uncertainty surrounding the market, Metaplanet believes that Bitcoin’s long-term potential is still untapped. The company recently approved an increase in its overseas investments by $137 million to buy more Bitcoin and pay down debt, confirming its determination to remain an active player in the cryptocurrency scene.


On the other hand, market sentiment remains tense. Bitcoin has lost half of its value since its peak in October 2025, and the Fear and Greed Index has fallen to its lowest level since May 2022. Major players such as Strategy, the largest public holder of Bitcoin, lost over $12 billion in the fourth quarter of 2025 as Bitcoin fell below their average purchase price.


Despite these challenges, Metaplanet remains committed to its plan and believes that the market will soon rebound. The firm continues to buy Bitcoin and shows no interest in selling it. This approach can be seen as bold, but also as evidence of long-term faith in the power of Bitcoin as a digital gold and store of value.


Only time will tell how the situation will develop further. However, one thing is certain - Metaplanet stands firm in its belief that Bitcoin still has a promising future ahead of it and that now is the right time to accumulate, not panic. We will see if their determination bears fruit in the form of long-term growth, or if they will have to face further challenges that the market will bring.
