Metaplanet BTC Holdings Still Trails Behind MicroStrategys’
Metaplanet’s buying spree reflects a growing trend among institutional investors. Market participants turn to Bitcoin as a hedge against economic uncertainty and inflation. The firm is positioning itself to benefit from long-term appreciation. At the same time, navigating the inherent risks of a volatile market as it manages its assets.
Metaplanet, however, is still dwarfed by corporate Bitcoin giants like MicroStrategy, which holds an impressive 252,220 BTC.
