A Clear Focus on Bitcoin Accumulation

The EGM also locked in updates to Metaplanet’s preferred share structure.

Class A “MARS” shares were amended to offer monthly, floating-rate dividends, while Class B “MERCURY” shares now follow a quarterly dividend schedule with added investor protections.

Just as important, shareholders approved issuing Class B preferred shares to overseas institutional investors.

That move supports Metaplanet’s plan to raise funds without further diluting common shareholders – capital that is expected to support future Bitcoin purchases.

Institutional Backing Adds Weight

The EGM vote followed earlier backing from Norges Bank Investment Management, the world’s largest sovereign wealth fund, which had already signaled its support ahead of the meeting. The fund currently owns about 0.3% of Metaplanet.

According to Coingecko, Metaplanet now holds 30,823 BTC, worth over $2.7 billion, placing it fourth among public Bitcoin treasury companies globally.

With shareholder and institutional support aligned, the company’s Bitcoin-focused direction looks firmly set.
