Japanese Firm Value Creation to Increase Bitcoin Holdings

According to Odaily, Japanese company Value Creation, listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange under the code 9238, plans to acquire an additional 100 million yen (approximately $700,000) worth of Bitcoin (BTC) over the next four months as part of its balance sheet reserves. Previously, the company purchased around 200 million yen ($1.4 million) in BTC, using surplus capital intended for future investments. Although the scale of this acquisition is limited, it signifies a growing trend among Japanese companies to adopt Bitcoin as a corporate reserve asset. Other Japanese firms, such as Remixpoint, NEXON, and Metaplanet, have also included BTC in their asset allocations. Notably, Metaplanet currently holds 4,525 BTC, making it the largest publicly listed Bitcoin holder in Japan.
