Metaplanet launches Metaplanet Ventures to fund Bitcoin and stablecoin startups in Japan by 2028

Bitcoin-buying firm Metaplanet has created a new entity called Metaplanet Ventures K.K. to invest in Japan-based Bitcoin infrastructure, stablecoin and tokenization startups. The company plans to allocate 4 billion Japanese yen over the next two to three years as it anticipates Bitcoin being treated as a regulated financial asset by January 2028, while still prioritizing long-term BTC accumulation.
