Cryptocurrency analyst Adam Livingston pointed out that Japan's Metaplanet has a competitive advantage in the Bitcoin space due to the depreciation of the Japanese Yen reducing debt costs. Since 2020, Bitcoin has significantly increased against both the Yen and the US Dollar. Metaplanet currently holds approximately 35,102 Bitcoins, making it the fourth-largest reserve company in the world.

Crypto analyst Adam Livingston stated that Japan’s Bitcoin treasury company Metaplanet has a competitive advantage over similar institutions in the United States. Due to Japan’s debt-to-GDP ratio reaching approximately 250%, the long-term depreciation of the yen through deficit financing has continuously lowered the actual cost of Metaplanet’s yen-denominated liabilities. Its 4.9% coupon debt shows a decreasing trend when valued in Bitcoin. Data indicates that since 2020, Bitcoin has increased by about 1,159% against the US dollar and approximately 1,704% against the Japanese yen. Currently, Metaplanet holds about 35,102 BTC, making it the fourth-largest Bitcoin reserve company globally. Recently, it added 4,279 BTC, worth approximately $451 million. (Cointelegraph)
