Metaplanet to invest $3.7B in Bitcoin by 2027

Japanese firm Metaplanet plans to raise $3.7B via a stock offering to buy 210,000 BTC by 2027, with dividends of up to 6%. Experts see this as a bullish sign for Bitcoin’s future.

Metaplanet launches new BTC treasury initiative

Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has announced plans to raise 555 billion yen (about $3.73 billion) through a perpetual preferred stock offering. The goal: acquire 210,000 BTC by the end of 2027.

The new shares will offer up to a 6% annual dividend, depending on market demand. The firm considers this move a pioneering approach to institutional Bitcoin adoption and part of its long-term treasury strategy.

Institutional accumulation may drive BTC above $132K

Corporate treasury demand is surging. Cointelegraph recently reported that firms now hold over $100 billion in crypto assets — $93 billion of which is in Bitcoin. Strategy, the world’s top Bitcoin-holding company, has also launched BTC-backed equity products with 9% annual yields.

Analysts believe this trend, combined with an expanding money supply, could push Bitcoin above $132,000 by the end of 2025.

Fiscal policy may trigger Bitcoin’s next rally

According to a Matrixport report, the next macroeconomic catalyst for Bitcoin could come in September. When the U.S. Congress returns from summer recess on September 2, attention will shift to fiscal debates.

Historically, fiscal uncertainty has boosted interest in hard assets like Bitcoin. Markets are now pricing in a 60.8% chance the Federal Reserve will keep rates steady at its September 17 meeting, according to CME FedWatch.
