Metaplanet acquired Siiibo Securities, a Tokyo-based regulated broker, in a deal valued at approximately 2.1 billion yen worth approximately $13.1 million.
Following the completion of the transaction, Siiibo Securities will become a wholly owned subsidiary, renamed Metaplanet Securities. The acquisition marks the first major step in Metaplanet’s “Project Nova,” a long-term strategy aimed at building a bitcoin-focused financial ecosystem.
The company, which holds 40,177 BTC worth $2.6 billion as of May 31, views bitcoin not only as a treasury asset but also as the foundation for a new generation of financial products and services.
Siiibo Securities specializes in corporate bond issuance and distribution through an online platform and has supported more than 100 bond offerings for over 40 companies.
Metaplanet believes the firm’s regulatory licenses, customer base, and securities expertise complement its ambitions in digital assets and tokenized finance.
Metaplanet also plans to leverage Siiibo’s platform to provide new yield-generating opportunities for investors and strengthen its presence in Japan’s evolving digital asset market.
We are pleased to announce that Metaplanet has entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of Siiibo Securities, a licensed Type I securities firm and a pioneer of Japan’s online corporate bond market. Following closing, expected in July, the company will be renamed Metaplanet… pic.twitter.com/1S6o2GXjP1
