The price paid for the bitcoins was ¥15.1 million ($102,000) per Bitcoin.
This is in line with the company’s general plan to diversify its crypto holdings, and the latest deal is as follows.

This strategic decision shows that finance is looking at cryptocurrency more as part of diversified portfolio in Japan.
Japanese Firms Remixpoint and Metaplanet Lead in Bitcoin Investment
Similarly, Metaplanet, another Japanese firm, has indicated it will increase its Bitcoin reserves. On November 29, Metaplanet released information that they plan to offer Floating Exercise Price Stock Subscription Rights and aim to secure ¥9.5 billion ($62 million). Therefore, the funds will be used to purchase more Bitcoins for Metaplanet. As of now, Metaplanet holds 1,142.287 BTC proving its strong belief in cryptocurrencies and investment in them.
Bitcoin has recently hit a high of $100,000 for the first time. Such a milestone is attracting the interest of financial behemoths and institutional investors. Increasingly more organizations are approaching Bitcoin as a reserve currency. This is in line with the global inclination towards the purchase of other digital assets.
The increase in the use of Bitcoin among various organizations and investment houses means a change of strategy. Such companies as Remixpoint and Metaplanet are rather active in this field, and they can act as examples not only for Japan but for other countries as well. This change explains why digital assets are gradually being recognized as more traditional than non-traditional.
This surge in the price of Bitcoin was a result of increased confidence in the market for cryptocurrencies. It has become more popular due to political changes and macroeconomic factors. They have compelled investors to look for other investment opportunities. As Bitcoin hits fresh new records, more firms might well do the same. They could include this sort of currency in their plans to protect themselves from fluctuations in the economy and inflation.
