Metaplanet CEO Gerovich announced the company will continue steadily accumulating Bitcoin despite a 50% drop from October 2025 highs and shares nearly halving since mid-January. The Tokyo-listed firm, which began buying BTC in April 2024, now holds 35,102 BTC worth $2.2 billion, ranking fourth globally among public companies. With an average purchase price of $107,716 per BTC, the firm faces $1.6 billion in unrealized losses. Gerovich emphasized long-term growth, mirroring strategies of other resilient Bitcoin holders like MicroStrategy.
