Metaplanet Inc., led by CEO Simon Gerovich, has taken the lead in Japan’s stock market with a ¥222 billion trading value on June 3, 2025, driven by its aggressive Bitcoin strategy. This surge reflects a growing trend of investors seeking alternative assets amid Japan’s volatile macroeconomic environment and bond market instability. Metaplanet acquired significant Bitcoin holdings, reaching over 8,888 BTC, making it a leading Bitcoin proxy on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. Gerovich has been instrumental in this success as his aggressive purchase strategy has led to a stock surge of 255% year-to-date. This move not only impacts the Bitcoin market but also traditional equities, pushing Bitcoin closer to its role as a treasury reserve asset globally.
