<p>Metaplanet’s Bitcoin strategy echoes that of <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/did-microstrategy-buy-bitcoin-over-the-weekend-rumors-point-to-a-major-btc-accumulation/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MicroStrategy Inc. </a>(NASDAQ: MSTR). The company recently announced the purchase of 124.11 additional Bitcoins, bringing its total holdings to approximately 1,142.287 BTC.</p>   
<p>To support these purchases, Metaplanet has been issuing new shares and raising funds. Last week, the company announced plans to issue <a href="https://coinpedia.org/crypto-live-news/metaplanet-invests-%C2%A51-75-billion-more-in-bitcoin-amid-economic-challenges/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">$11.3 million in bonds</a> to acquire even more Bitcoin.</p>   
<p>Since adopting its Bitcoin-focused strategy, Metaplanet’s stock has surged nearly tenfold. With Bitcoin prices expected to climb further in the coming months, the company’s stock could see additional growth, making it an attractive option for investors.</p>   
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-japan-s-pro-crypto-environment">Japan’s Pro-Crypto Environment</h2>   
<p>The launch of Bitcoin Magazine Japan reflects the growing acceptance of cryptocurrency in Japan. Over the years, the Japanese government has introduced clear regulations to encourage the adoption of digital assets.</p>   
<p>For instance, Japan’s Financial Services Agency (FSA) recently proposed a new business category for companies managing stablecoins and virtual assets. This framework aims to reduce legal hurdles, allowing crypto businesses to operate more freely.</p>
