Metaplenet, also known as Japan’s strategy, has updated his Bitcoin acquisition plans to acquire 100,000 BTC at the end of 2026.
Metaplenet on June 6 published its new Bitcoin (BTC) plan, increasing its previous objective or 21,000 BTC.
“Our previous goal, to maintain 21000 BTC by the end of 2026, has now been dramatically reviewed up. Now we intend to have 100,000 BTC for that time,” said the CEO of Metaplanet, Simon Gerovich, published in X.
Metaplenet has 8,888 BTC after its last acquisition announcement of 1,088 BTC on June 2. The new objective means that it undertakes to buy at least 91,112 BTC in the next 18 months.
“Segurous Assets” are no longer safe
Metaplenet’s hurry to buy more Bitcoin is an answer to economic developments worldwide and changes in the global financial system.
According to the CEO of Metaplenet, the global economy is experiencing a “structural transformation of a traditional supply structure focused on capital and labor to a new economic base driven by information technology.”
The situation is exacerbated by the implications of “postwar monetary regime”, such as geopolitical risks, commercial policy changes and conerns increasing about the sovereign debt accumulated.
“In this environment, capital has begun to get out of the assets previously considered safe, such as long -term government bonds. Gold has rehabilitation in the legs to record high level coins,” Gerovich said in the statement, adding:
“In this context, the strategic importance of Bitcoin, an asset characterized by high scarcity, the ease of custody and transfer, and the absence of credit intermediaries, is rapidly gaining recognition.”
The 555 million plan is the new millions plan
To finance purchases, Metaplenet has decided to issue shares acquisition rights, allowing the issuance of up to 555 million shares destined to acquire Bitcoin.
The new 555 million shares will join the 210 million shares already issued under the 21 million plan.
“At the end of 2027, our goal is to maintain around 210,000 BTC, thus entering the so -called ‘1% Club’, referring to entities that have at least 1% of the supply limit of 21 million Bitcoin,” Gerovich said.
The accelerated impulse of Bitcoin de Metaplenet occurred shortly after Standard Chartered Bank warns about potential risks by voting for the growing adoption of Bitcoin’s treasure strategy among fellow public public.
According to the bank, 61 of the total of 124 public companies that have invested in Bitcoin have a combined 3.2% of the 21 million bitcoin that will exist.
