Metaplanet Revises Bitcoin Options Strategy to Enhance Yields
Metaplanet Inc., a Tokyo-based investment company, recently revised its Bitcoin strategy, adjusting its put options to a new strike price of $66,000, up from the previous $62,000.
This strategic shift, revealed on October 3, aims to capitalize on Bitcoin’s potential by increasing yields on the options while retaining the original expiration date of December 27.
In this maneuver, Metaplanet repurchased 223 options at the lower strike price and issued the same number at the higher $66,000 threshold. The company’s CEO, Simon Gerovich, shared that this adjustment is expected to generate an additional JPY 57.9 million in premium, bringing the year’s total to JPY 272.5 million. The collateral backing for these transactions remains unchanged at $13.8 million.
The revised strategy allows the company to boost its nominal yield by 2.65%, reaching a total of 13.4%. Metaplanet has been steadily increasing its Bitcoin reserves, with a recent purchase of nearly 107 BTC worth about $6.7 million, bringing its total holdings to approximately 855.5 BTC.
