Metaplanet stock is gaining momentum after a sharp jump in price. The Japanese firm’s new $5.4 billion fundraising plan is fueling investor interest. Analysts believe the stock could rise fivefold if Bitcoin reaches $200,000. The company’s growing Bitcoin strategy is attracting attention across both traditional finance and crypto markets.

Metaplanet Stock Rises After $5.4B Bitcoin Funding Plan

Japanese firm Metaplanet saw its stock jump 26.49% in a single day. The rally followed the company’s announcement of a major funding plan aimed at buying more Bitcoin. The firm will raise $5.4 billion through an equity financing strategy.

Metaplanet will issue 5.55 billion new shares using floating strike price warrants. The approach uses the stock’s market demand and price movement to secure capital. The decision reflects strong investor sentiment toward the company’s Bitcoin acquisition strategy.

Analyst Predicts 5x Stock Surge if Bitcoin Hits $200K

Richard Byworth, founder of Syz Capital, analyzed the fundraising and its potential effects. He noted the move could increase Metaplanet’s market capitalization by 75%. The company’s Bitcoin holdings could also rise sevenfold if the plan is executed.

Byworth presented three scenarios for the stock’s future. If Bitcoin’s price remains stable, Metaplanet’s market cap could grow to $23 billion. This could push the stock price to $18. If the multiplier rises to 5-6x, the market cap may reach $32–$38.5 billion. This could drive the share price to $25–$30.

If Bitcoin reaches $200,000 by year-end, Byworth suggests Metaplanet’s stock may reach $50. This estimate assumes there are no further fundraising events. The analyst compared this bold strategy to Michael Saylor’s 2021 Bitcoin acquisitions.

Company Targets 210,000 BTC by 2027

Metaplanet also updated its Bitcoin acquisition target after the new fundraising plan. The company aims to hold 210,000 BTC by 2027. This is equal to 1% of Bitcoin’s total supply.

Trading volumes in Japan have surged following the announcement. Investors are closely watching how Metaplanet’s strategy develops. The aggressive buying plan could reshape how publicly traded firms invest in digital assets.

CEO Simon Gerovich commented on the financing structure. He said, “Metaplanet has executed Japan’s FIRST EVER stock acquisition rights issuance priced ABOVE market, a notable departure from the typical 8 to 10 percent discount in similar financings. The structure is both shareholder-friendly and unprecedented in scale.”

Broader Market Sentiment Around Bitcoin

The broader market also shows bullish sentiment for Bitcoin. Michael Saylor of MicroStrategy recently discussed Bitcoin’s long-term value. He suggested that it could reach $13 million by 2045.

Saylor also dismissed concerns about quantum computing’s effect on Bitcoin’s security. He said Bitcoin will evolve alongside technology threats. These long-term views may support investor optimism.

The connection between Metaplanet’s stock and Bitcoin’s price could drive continued interest. Investors will monitor both markets closely in the coming months.
