(@Metaplanet_JP) September 1, 2025 The company will hold a key shareholder vote today on its capital raising plan, with Eric Trump expected to attend, Bloomberg reported earlier this month. The proposal seeks approval to issue up to 550 million new shares overseas, targeting proceeds of more than 130 billion yen, or about $884 million. The bulk of the proceeds would be used to purchase more Bitcoin. The company, formerly known as Red Planet Japan, has transformed from a hotel operator into Japan’s leading Bitcoin treasury company. It is now the seventh-largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, according to BitcoinTreasuries.net.

President Simon Gerovich called the upgrade a major step in establishing the firm as Japan’s top Bitcoin treasury player. Metaplanet’s shares slipped about 2.6% intraday in Japan, according to Yahoo Finance data. The stock is still up nearly 146% year-to-date.
