Value Creation Tokyo is about to buy an additional 100 million yen Bitcoin

The publicly listed technology company in Japan – Value Creation – has just announced plans to purchase an additional 100 million yen in Bitcoin, following previous transactions totaling 200 million yen (equivalent to 1.4 million USD). The company stated that Bitcoin "is no longer just a speculative asset."

In the report submitted to the Japanese Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASF) this week, Value Creation – a company operating in the marketing and digital transformation (DX) of the real estate sector – stated that they plan to purchase an additional 100 million yen ( equivalent to approximately 700,000 USD) BTC between April and August 2025.

Although the transaction value is not large compared to the recent massive deals from MicroStrategy by Michael Saylor, this move indicates a clear shift of Value Creation as well as the Japanese market in general towards the digital asset sector. Currently, Metaplanet is the publicly listed company holding the most Bitcoin in Japan.

In the announcement, Value Creation emphasized:

"Cryptocurrencies, which were initially viewed with skepticism, are now gradually asserting their global position as digital currencies."

The company also cited the interest of major institutions like BlackRock in BTC and affirmed:

"Bitcoin is no longer just a speculative asset; it is establishing its own value. Despite short-term adjustments, the growth trend is continuous."

The purchase of additional BTC will be made with excess capital earmarked for investment purposes, and the company also said it will convert to cash as needed to reinvest in the business.

While many crypto investors and advocates see the fact that major global companies are actively buying BTC as a positive sign, some veteran members of the cypherpunk community argue that this goes against the original spirit of decentralization where Bitcoin was created to be a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency. not dependent on corporations or central banks.
