Metaplanet enterprise value relative to bitcoin holdings (Metaplanet)

What to know:

  • Metaplanet’s multiple to net asset value (mNAV) rose to around 1.25, its highest level since before the October liquidation crisis.
  • The move followed MSCI’s decision not to exclude digital asset treasury companies from its global indexes.
  • Strategy (MSTR) rose around 5% in pre-market trading while price action across other bitcoin treasury companies remained relatively muted.

Digital asset treasury company Metaplanet (3350) rose 4% in Tokyo on Wednesday after index provider MSCI decided not to exclude firms building cryptocurrency stockpiles from its global indexes.

Metaplanet is now up 20% since the start of the year. The rally means company is valued at a premium to its bitcoin holdings, with a multiple to net asset value (mNAV) of around 1.25, the highest level since before October's plunge in crypto prices, according to the company’s dashboard.

The decision ended months of uncertainty around index eligibility and lifted U.S. peers when the announcement was made after regular trading hours on Tuesday. Strategy (MSTR), the largest corporate holder of bitcoin BTC$91,801.68 was recently 5% higher in pre-market trading. Other digital asset treasury companies rose to a lesser extent.

Metaplanet shares closed at 531 yen ($3.4), having bottomed near 340 yen on Nov. 18. The company holds 35,102 BTC, making it the fourth-largest publicly listed bitcoin treasury company globally.

MSCI’s announcement removes a near term overhang for crypto treasury stocks, particularly those already included in major indexes. However, the index provider also signaled that a broader consultation on non operating and investment oriented companies is forthcoming, indicating that regulatory and index related risks for bitcoin treasury firms have been deferred, not eliminated.

KuCoin Hits Record Market Share as 2025 Volumes Outpace Crypto Market

Commissioned byKuCoin

KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.

What to know:

  • KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
  • This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoin’s activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
  • Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
  • Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoin’s role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
  • Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.

The post IP Hits $11.75, HYPE Climbs to $55, BlockDAG Surpasses Both with $407M Presale Surge! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 17 September 2025 | 18:00 Discover why BlockDAG’s upcoming Awakening Testnet launch makes it the best crypto to buy today as Story (IP) price jumps to $11.75 and Hyperliquid hits new highs. Recent crypto market numbers show strength but also some limits. The Story (IP) price jump has been sharp, fueled by big buybacks and speculation, yet critics point out that revenue still lags far behind its valuation. The Hyperliquid (HYPE) price looks solid around the mid-$50s after a new all-time high, but questions remain about sustainability once the hype around USDH proposals cools down. So the obvious question is: why chase coins that are either stretched thin or at risk of retracing when you could back a network that’s already proving itself on the ground? That’s where BlockDAG comes in. While other chains are stuck dealing with validator congestion or outages, BlockDAG’s upcoming Awakening Testnet will be stress-testing its EVM-compatible smart chain with real miners before listing. For anyone looking for the best crypto coin to buy, the choice between waiting on fixes or joining live progress feels like an easy one. BlockDAG: Smart Chain Running Before Launch Ethereum continues to wrestle with gas congestion, and Solana is still known for network freezes, yet BlockDAG is already showing a different picture. Its upcoming Awakening Testnet, set to launch on September 25, isn’t just a demo; it’s a live rollout where the chain’s base protocols are being stress-tested with miners connected globally. EVM compatibility is active, account abstraction is built in, and tools like updated vesting contracts and Stratum integration are already functional. Instead of waiting for fixes like other networks, BlockDAG is proving its infrastructure in real time. What makes this even more important is that the technology is operational before the coin even hits exchanges. That…
