Japanese publicly traded company, Metaplanet, has signaled its continued bullish sentiment on Bitcoin after receiving board approval to purchase an additional ¥250 million worth of Bitcoin.
In total, they have invested ¥1.25 billion (roughly $8 million) in Bitcoin, following an earlier purchase of ¥1 billion this year.
The company further elaborated on their accounting practices for Bitcoin: “Please note that for Bitcoins held for long-term purposes, we will record them at cost, while for those held for short-term purposes, we will revalue their worth quarterly at market value, and any unrealized gains or losses will be recorded in the non-operating income section of the income statement. In the event of significant impacts on quarterly performance, we will promptly disclose them.”
This transparency regarding their accounting practices provides investors with a clearer picture of how Metaplanet manages its Bitcoin holdings.
Analysts believe this repeated investment indicates Metaplanet’s confidence in the future potential of Bitcoin. The cryptocurrency market has experienced significant volatility in recent months, but Metaplanet’s decision suggests they believe in Bitcoin’s long-term viability.
