This represents a 42.4% increase compared to the same period in 2024. Metaplanet aims to create a long-lasting and scalable business model, using Bitcoin as its financial foundation.
Market Reaction and Stock Performance
Following the announcement of the new purchase, Metaplanet's stock dipped by 1.8%.
