Metaplanet added 2,823 BTC to its Bitcoin treasury on July 2, lifting total holdings to exactly 43,000 BTC, while its Bitcoin Income Generation business posted a -41% quarter-over-quarter revenue decline, putting a different kind of pressure on the Tokyo-listed firm\u2019s growth story.<\/p>\n
The Japan-based firm is doubling down on its Bitcoin accumulation strategy, even as Michael Saylor\u2019s pioneering strategy struggles, choosing to build its cash reserve over further BTC purchases for now.<\/p>\n
This news out of Japan comes as Bitcoin is staging a rally, pumping +4% overnight, reclaiming $60,000, and currently trading for around $61,400. This move has come with a surge in trading volume, with the 24-hour figure sitting at $44.5Bn, a +15% increase on yesterday.<\/p>\n
Metaplanet now holds 43,000 BTC ($2.6B), with total debt and prefs at 23% of BTC NAV.<\/p>\n
