Metaplanet, a Tokyo-listed company, now has over 250,000 shareholders, representing about 0.2% of Japan's population, reflecting a 66% increase recently. The company shifted to a Bitcoin-focused treasury strategy in 2024 and holds 40,177 BTC, making it the third-largest corporate Bitcoin holder globally. It plans to expand by acquiring Siiibo Securities to offer Bitcoin-linked products directly to retail investors, leveraging Japan's regulated crypto environment. This growth shows strong retail interest but also exposes shareholders to Bitcoin's price volatility risks.
