Stacking company Metaplanet. Eric will further promote BTC adoption and work with other Metaplanet executives on the company’s mission to become the “global leader in the Bitcoin economy.”
In its disclosure, Metaplanet noted that Eric Trump brings extensive expertise to the growth of real estate, finance, brand development and strategic business. Additionally, he is also actively leading the World Liberty Financial of Donald Trump’s Defi project, whilst advocating for adoption of digital assets at the global stage. Speaking about the development, Metaplanet Director Simon Gerovich said:
“We look forward to welcoming Eric Trump as the first member of the Strategic Advisory Committee and welcoming him to the annual general meeting. His global hospitality perspective is invaluable in accelerating his business insights, his love for the Bitcoin community and Metaplanet’s vision to become one of the world’s leading Bitcoin Treasury ministries.”
Japanese company Metaplanet has continued its Bitcoin acquisition plan to buy an additional 150 BTC this week on March 18th, increasing its total BTC holdings to 3,200.
With a recent purchase, the company has also joined League of the World’s Top 10 Bitcoin Holders, officially being Asia’s largest public list Bitcoin Holder. Despite the large volatility of BTC prices since the beginning of the year, Metaplanet was able to record a massive BTC yield of 60.8% since the beginning of 2025.
To further drive its Bitcoin acquisition strategy, Metaplanet issued its seventh ordinary bond last month. This has raised about $13.6 million towards the additional Bitcoin purchase, with the company expected to add 2 billion JPY.
Following today’s development, Metaplanet’s stock price rose 17.8% to reach 4,730 yen ($31.74) within the first 80 minutes after trading on March 21. At this point, the stock has risen 700 points at the 4,730 JPY level and is moving to a constantly high level of 6,650 JPY.
More than 2,150% profits were earned on the annual charts, and the company has created enormous wealth for its shareholders by adopting MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin acquisition strategy. Metaplanet plans to purchase 10,000 BTC from the Ministry of Finance by the end of 2026.
