Metaplanet to Invest Up to ¥400 Million in JPYC’s Yen Stablecoin Platform

Metaplanet KK ( (JP:3350) ) has provided an update.

Metaplanet Inc. has signed a letter of intent to invest up to JPY 400 million in JPYC Inc., issuer of the fully reserved, yen-denominated stablecoin JPYC, as part of JPYC’s Series B round via its soon-to-be-formed subsidiary Metaplanet Ventures K.K. The deal, contingent on due diligence and final agreements, positions Metaplanet early in Japan’s regulated stablecoin market, which it views as critical settlement infrastructure for institutional-scale Bitcoin and digital asset transactions.

The company sees strategic applications in combining Bitcoin-native financial services with digital yen settlement, including tokenized corporate securities, stablecoin-based distributions, Bitcoin lending and collateral products, and integrated wallets supporting both BTC and JPY stablecoins. While the investment is expected to have an immaterial impact on 2026 financial results, it underscores Metaplanet’s ambition to help shape the infrastructure layer of Japan’s digital asset economy and leverage the country’s advanced stablecoin regulatory framework.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:3350) stock is a Hold with a Yen379.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Metaplanet KK stock, see the JP:3350 Stock Forecast page.
