Metaplanet changes dimension. The former Japanese real estate player, now a pioneer in bitcoin treasury, is now affirmed as a model of institutional adoption. With the simultaneous opening of two subsidiaries in Miami and Tokyo, the company no longer just stores the rare asset: it builds a real income infrastructure around bitcoin.
Metaplanet Inc., the Japanese company, recently acquired 103 additional bitcoins, for about 11.7 million dollars. This brought its total reserve to 18,991 BTC. Currently, these holdings are worth between 1.94 and 2.2 billion dollars according to estimates. Metaplanet thus confirms its place among the largest global institutional holders.
Against a backdrop of regulatory uncertainty, XRP stabilizes around $3 while two decisive fronts open up. In the United States, the imminent SEC decision on withdrawing its appeal could trigger a rally beyond key technical thresholds. In Asia, Japan and South Korea multiply favorable signals, from the Bitcoin/XRP ETF to institutional integration, offering unprecedented support. According to several analysts, this dual impetus could push Ripple's crypto up to $4.80.
As traditional finance giants struggle to reinvent their reserve strategy, a Japanese company is stepping off the beaten path. Metaplanet, boldly dubbed "the Japanese strategy," is no longer just flirting with bitcoin. It is now entering an economic war with a clear ambition: to own 100,000 BTC by the end of 2026. This is no longer just a bet; it is a manifesto.

A new trade tension is shaking relations between Washington and Tokyo. Donald Trump's recent decision to impose massive tariffs on Japanese products is causing a shockwave. Japan is reacting, setting up a delegation, and trying to contain the crisis before it worsens.
When Japan, China, and South Korea sit down at the same table, it's not to discuss the weather. In a world where trade tensions reshape alliances, their recent meeting could very well change the game in Asia... and beyond. Between promises, caution, and joint projects, a new geopolitical chapter seems to be unfolding in three voices.
