The Japanese corporate giant Metaplanet dropped a bombshell in its fiscal 2025 earnings presentation.

While the broader market is paralyzed by the "Warsh Shock" and a strengthening U.S. Dollar, Strategy Inc. (formerly MicroStrategy) has effectively become the "buyer of last resort" for the entire corporate world.

The crypto market is currently in a state of "free-fall" as Bitcoin (BTC) plummeted by 8% in a single trading session today, February 5, 2026, briefly touching the $69,500 level.

On January 12, 2026, MicroStrategy (now operating under the ticker "Strategy") announced its largest acquisition of the year, purchasing 13,627 BTC for approximately $1.25 billion.

The SIX Swiss Exchange (SIX), a primary global stock exchange, announced a major step in institutionalizing crypto trading by listing the world's first triple-leveraged (3x Long) and triple-short (-3x Short) Exchange-Traded Products (ETPs) on both Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).

The selloff pushed Bitcoin's price down over 35% from its October peak and coincided with broad weakness across risk assets, including a slump in major stock indices.

This capital raise, which totaled nearly $160 million, represents a powerful institutional affirmation of the corporate treasury strategy surrounding Bitcoin.

The crypto market experienced a dramatic downturn on November 4, 2025, as Bitcoin (BTC) briefly retreated below the critical psychological threshold of $100,000 for the first time since June.

This launch is notable for two key reasons: it is Asia’s first spot Solana ETF and it dramatically expands the suite of virtual asset ETFs already available in Hong Kong, which includes existing spot Bitcoin and Ethereum funds, Coinidol.com reports.
