Metaplanet Investment plans to venture into the United States market via a huge acquisition transaction that will see 2,100 Bitcoin and $2.5 million worth of money exchanged for Super League Enterprise to develop a Bitcoin treasury platform.
The move will change the Nasdaq-listed company to Superplanet, whose ticker will be SUPA. This development represents another milestone for Metaplanet in its plan to increase its presence in the US digital assets market while raising funds from Japan.
Metaplanet Investment Targets US Bitcoin Market
After the deal, it is estimated that Metaplanet will have approximately a 95.7% ownership stake in the common shares and voting power of Superplanet. Metaplanet’s presentation to investors describes a plan intended to duplicate its successful Bitcoin treasury approach in the far more developed US financial market.
The Metaplanet investment plan will build a structure comprised of two listed companies working in Japan and the US markets. Metaplanet will maintain its funding in yen in Japan, and Superplanet will fund in dollars in the US.
All Bitcoins acquired by Superplanet would be kept within the Metaplanet family and would be added to their total Bitcoins.
One of the largest components of the Metaplanet investment strategy could be issuing US dollar perpetual preferred stocks. With this money, more Bitcoin could be bought for Superplanet’s treasury.
An example provided within the presentation: Metaplanet stated that Superplanet could obtain an equal amount of preferred capital as the value of the initial 2,100 BTC position and invest the same in purchasing 2,100 BTC.
This would result in an increase in the Bitcoin holding of the new firm from 2,100 BTC to 4,200 BTC. As per Metaplanet’s estimate, the measure is expected to increase the Bitcoin position per Metaplanet share by approximately 4.7%.

Metaplanet Investment Could Reach $210 Million
The Metaplanet company will also have an opportunity to invest a further $210 million into the Superplanet company. In connection with that, the company may get long-term warrants for 381 million shares.
Nevertheless, the Metaplanet Investment still requires shareholder approval as well as Nasdaq and other regulatory approvals. Should everything be approved, the deal is estimated to start in the fourth quarter of 2026.
Metaplanet Holds 43,000 BTC
Metaplanet initiated the Bitcoin Treasury approach last year and has managed to build a substantial amount of BTC in its treasury. The company had temporarily stopped purchasing any more BTC due to the market downturn of 2026 but resumed purchases in July this year.
Metaplanet is currently estimated to own approximately 43,000 BTC, which is sufficient to make Metaplanet the third-largest corporate Bitcoin investor on the public record.
Twenty One Capital owns 43,514 BTC, and Strategy is the largest corporate Bitcoin holder, owning approximately 840,447 BTC.
The newest Metaplanet Investment will allow the company to open new opportunities to get US dollar funding and increase Bitcoin investment in the two largest capital markets.
