Metaplanet Stock Slumps 50% Amid Market Volatility
While Metaplanet continues expanding its Bitcoin holdings, its stock price has tumbled to 3,630 yen—down nearly 50% from its February peak. Analysts point to macroeconomic turbulence, with U.S. policies and Trump’s trade war tariffs adding to market uncertainty.
Earlier in March, Metaplanet reinforced its corporate Bitcoin strategy, acquiring 497 BTC. These bold moves are unfolding against a backdrop of crypto market instability, exacerbated by shifting U.S. economic policies.
Crypto Market in Fear—But Is This a Buying Opportunity?
Macroeconomic pressure is rattling the crypto market, with investors pulling $5 billion from crypto ETFs over the past three weeks. The exodus reflects growing unease, but could it also be a chance for long-term investors to accumulate?
Ethereum funds saw $756 million in outflows, while Bitcoin ETFs lost $1.8 billion, as sell-offs intensified across the board.
The Fear & Greed Index has entered ‘Fear’ territory, often considered a signal for strategic accumulation. Market experts remain divided—some see a standard correction, while others anticipate extended market instability.
Metaplanet stays the course, continuing to accumulate Bitcoin under its long-term strategy. However, the company’s future position will likely be shaped by Bitcoin’s ability to sustain crucial support levels amid macroeconomic uncertainty.
