The firm revealed the bonds would have zero interest, and its redemption date would be November 7. Metaplanet could reportedly buy 206 BTC at the current price if it managed to raise a total of $21.25 million.

Since then, other firms, including Metaplanet, have also adopted the Bitcoin acquisition strategy. Strive Asset Management also said on May 7 that it would transition into a Bitcoin strategy firm. GameStop Corporation, a video game retailer, completed a debt offering last month that raised about $1.5 billion, with some funds reserved for purchasing Bitcoin.

The firm aimed to raise $250 million to tap into US institutional investors. While citing Florida as the most favorable city, the crypto company also revealed the US subsidiary would be headquartered in Miami. Metaplanet’s statement read in part, “Florida, a rapidly emerging hub for Bitcoin-focused companies and financial innovation, recognized for its business-friendly policies and rising status as a global center of capital and technology.” The crypto firm explained that it opted to set up its subsidiary in Florida because of its pro-Bitcoin environment which allegedly led to the adoption of Bitcoin by corporates. The subsidiary would also help the firm expand its operations into a new timezone. It added that the US subsidiary would support its strategic positioning in the US market, which would be a global hub for crypto-related innovation, capital formation, and corporate adoption.
