Metaplanet is not just buying Bitcoin anymore, it is building the infrastructure to distribute it. The Tokyo-listed company has entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of Siiibo Securities, a licensed Japanese securities firm and pioneer of the country’s online corporate bond market, in what marks the company’s first major acquisition and the opening move of a much larger strategy. The deal, expected to close in July, transforms Metaplanet from a Bitcoin treasury company into something far more ambitious: a regulated financial platform with the pipes to bring Bitcoin-linked products directly to Japanese retail investors.
