Metaplanet to debut US trading with Deutsche Bank under MPJPY

cointelegraphPublicado a 2025-12-19Actualizado a 2025-12-19

Resumen

Japanese Bitcoin treasury company Metaplanet will begin trading its American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) in the U.S. under the ticker MPJPY on the OTC market. The program, facilitated by Deutsche Bank and MUFG Bank, aims to provide U.S. investors easier access to its equity and is not intended to raise capital. This launch follows the company's existing OTCQX listing (MTPLF). The announcement comes as Metaplanet, which holds 30,823 BTC, has not purchased any Bitcoin since September 2025. Its market value to Bitcoin NAV ratio has since recovered to 1.12.

Metaplanet, a Japanese Bitcoin treasury company, is set to begin trading in the United States via American Depositary Receipts (ADRs).

Trading in Metaplanet’s ADRs is expected to start on Friday, with its shares listed in US dollars on the over-the-counter (OTC) market under the ticker symbol MPJPY, according to an announcement.

“This directly reflects feedback from US retail and institutional investors seeking easier access to our equity,” Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich said in an X post on Friday, adding that the launch marks another step to broader global access to the company.

Metaplanet’s ADR program is launched through a sponsored level trust agreement with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, acting as depositary, and MUFG Bank as custodian in Japan.

The ADRs are not intended to raise capital, Metaplanet says

American Depositary Receipts are financial instruments issued by US banks that represent shares of non-US companies, allowing US investors to buy and sell shares of foreign firms without the need to trade directly on foreign exchanges.

“The ADRs are not intended to raise funds, but to fund the issuance of common shares and preferred shares by the company,” Metaplanet said.

The ADR program differs from Metaplanet’s MTPLF offering, which began trading on the OTC Markets Group’s OTCQX market in December 2024.

“It [MTPLF] is not based on a sponsored ADR program,” the company noted in the announcement.

Metaplanet’s has not bought any Bitcoin since September

The launch of Metaplanet’s MPJPY ADR programme comes as the company’s Bitcoin (BTC) buying has stalled. After acquiring around 29,000 Bitcoin in 2025, Metaplanet halted purchases in September, with its most recent acquisition dated Sept. 29, according to data from Bitbo.

Since launching its Bitcoin acquisition strategy in April 2024, Metaplanet has accumulated a total of 30,823 BTC, emerging as one of the world’s largest digital asset treasuries alongside Michael Saylor’s Strategy.

Metaplanet’s BTC buying halt came amid Metaplanet’s enterprise value falling below the value of its Bitcoin holdings in mid-October, raising concerns across the industry.

Several DAT companies also saw sharp share price declines following a strong rally in July 2025.

Metaplanet’s market to Bitcoin NAV (mNAV) — a ratio between the company’s value and its BTC holdings — has since recovered above 1, standing at 1.12 by publishing time, according to official data reported by the company.

Ethereum's Next Decade in the Eyes of Vitalik

"Lean Ethereum" Long-Term Roadmap Unveiled by Vitalik Buterin On July 5, 2026, Vitalik Buterin published the "Lean Ethereum" roadmap, positioning it as Ethereum's third major evolution following the Merge. This multi-year, multi-phase upgrade aims to fundamentally transform Ethereum's core protocol through staged network upgrades extending to 2029. Key goals include achieving 1 gigagas per second L1 throughput (a massive increase from the current ~32 TPS), near-instant finality, and quantum-resistant cryptography. The plan involves transitioning Ethereum's security model from full transaction re-execution by all nodes to native verification via recursive STARK proofs. A major proposed change is replacing the EVM with a proof-friendly architecture like RISC-V or leanISA, though this remains a point of contention, especially with L2s like Arbitrum favoring alternatives like WASM. Other planned upgrades include a restructured state model with a large, cheap "warehouse" storage layer to drastically reduce fees for migrated applications, multi-dimensional gas pricing, and a new focus on making privacy a first-class, native protocol feature. While the roadmap significantly raises Ethereum's long-term technical ceiling, analysts note it does not directly address ETH's mid-term token economics or value capture. The plan's multi-year timeline means near-term price impact will likely depend on observable progress milestones, such as the successful deployment of the upcoming Glamsterdam gas limit increase, growth in L2 activity and blob usage, and trends in L1 fee revenue and ETH burn.

In Just 11 Days, Claude Rewrote Millions of Lines of Code, an Epic AI Engineering Feat Sparks Fury

In just 11 days, Bun's founder Jarred Sumner used Anthropic's Claude AI models to rewrite its million lines of code from Zig to Rust. This move sparked significant controversy, particularly from Zig's creator, Andrew Kelley, who publicly criticized Sumner's engineering practices and the decision to use AI for such a massive rewrite. Bun, a high-performance JavaScript/TypeScript runtime and rival to Node.js, was originally written in Zig. After Anthropic acquired Bun, the team encountered persistent stability and memory safety bugs in the Zig codebase. These issues, combined with Zig's strict policy against LLM-generated code, led to the decision to rewrite in Rust. The rewrite was executed using Claude AI tools at an estimated API cost of $165,000, dramatically reducing the expected time and financial cost. Andrew Kelley's response was scathing. He blamed the original bugs on poor engineering habits, calling Bun's Zig code a collection of "hacks on top of hacks." He expressed relief that Bun was no longer associated with Zig, fearing it would misrepresent the language and attract low-quality, AI-generated contributions. The tech community is divided; some view Kelley's critique as unprofessional, while others see it as a defense of engineering integrity. A major concern about the AI-driven rewrite is the resulting code quality. The translation from Zig left approximately 27,000 lines of unsafe Rust code, raising fears about long-term maintainability and technical debt. The debate centers on whether this project is a milestone in AI-assisted development or a future maintenance nightmare.

From Auto Finance to Bitcoin to AI Engines: An Analysis of Cango's 'What Not to Do' Strategy

From Auto Finance to Bitcoin and Now AI: Cango's "What Not to Do" Strategy Cango, a Chinese auto finance platform that went public on the NYSE in 2018, is undergoing its third major transformation. After selling its entire auto business in 2024, it pivoted to become a large-scale Bitcoin miner, acquiring 50 exahash of mining rigs from Bitmain. However, its true goal was never Bitcoin, but owning and controlling energy infrastructure. Now, Cango is pivoting again. While most listed Bitcoin miners are leasing power to giant hyperscalers for AI training clusters, Cango is taking the opposite path. It has launched an AI inference subsidiary called EcoHash, focusing not on training but on distributed inference. The company's strategy hinges on the insight that over 70% of mining industry power is controlled by small, independent sites (10-50 MW), which are too small for hyperscalers but ideal for low-latency AI inference. Cango aims to partner with these small operators, providing the AI technology, customers, and financing through its EcoLink software layer, which can distribute workloads across sites for reliability. Cango maintains a hybrid model, running roughly 31.7 EH/s of Bitcoin mining for cash flow while aggressively cleaning its balance sheet—slashing long-term debt by 94.5% to $30.6 million and raising $75 million for its AI venture. Its first AI deployment will be at a 50 MW site in Georgia. The strategy faces skepticism, given the high costs of converting mining sites and the potential for an AI bubble. However, Cango's leadership believes discipline around "what not to do"—avoiding direct competition with hyperscalers in training—positions it to capture the long-tail demand for distributed AI inference power.

Strategy's Bitcoin Sales Cap Far Exceeds $1.25 Billion: A Detail the Market Overlooked

The article discusses how MicroStrategy's potential Bitcoin sales go far beyond the announced $1.25 billion "reserve-building capacity." It clarifies a key distinction in the company's "BTC Monetization Program": selling Bitcoin to *build* a new dollar reserve (the $1.25B cap) versus selling to *replenish* the existing USD Reserve after it's used for expenses like preferred share dividends. The recent $216M BTC sale for dividend payments was a "replenishment," leaving the headline $1.25B building quota untouched. The plan actually outlines three potential funding pools from BTC sales: 1) Building the reserve ($1.25B cap), 2) Covering preferred share/ debt costs (no specified cap), and 3) Funding buyback programs (up to $20B). This means the structured sales potential exceeds $30 billion, not including uncapped replenishment sales. The piece argues this marks MicroStrategy's shift from a passive "buy-and-hold" Bitcoin proxy to an actively managed entity using BTC as a balance-sheet tool to manage its complex capital structure (common stock, preferred shares, debt, reserve). This creates new dynamics and potential conflicts, as actions benefiting one part (e.g., selling BTC to pay dividends) may pressure another (e.g., undermining the "never sell" narrative). Investors must now parse the company's specific terminology ("build" vs. "replenish") to understand the true scope of future BTC sales, which is significantly larger than the market initially perceived.

Goldman Sachs Report Deconstructs the Competitive Landscape of China's AI Large Models: Who Will Be the Long-Term Winner?

Goldman Sachs analyzes China's AI large language model (LLM) landscape, identifying key players and a strategic shift towards efficiency and global expansion. The report highlights that Chinese open-source/open-weight models are closing the performance gap with top global proprietary models at significantly lower cost, driven by architectural innovations like MoE. This enables a "two-tier" market: a high-end segment (e.g., GLM5.2, Qwen3.7 Max) with pricing at ~$1 per million tokens, and a low-end, price-sensitive global segment. Open-source strategies aid adoption but limit monetization, as deployments via third-party platforms (e.g., AWS Bedrock, Alibaba Cloud) may not generate direct revenue for model creators. The industry is thus moving towards "open-weight + community license" models with revenue-sharing to improve unit economics. Internationally, the focus is shifting from "token maximization" to ROI-driven enterprise adoption, particularly in non-U.S. markets. Major cloud platforms are integrating Chinese models (e.g., DeepSeek, MiniMax). Using a competitive framework based on pricing power, cost advantage, and financial strength, Goldman Sachs identifies **Zhipu AI** and **DeepSeek** as leaders in foundational text models, and **ByteDance** (with Seedance) leading in multimodal/video generation. **MiniMax** and **Kuaishou** are also rated favorably. The firm forecasts China's AI model API/subscription revenue growing from ~RMB 35bn (2026E) to RMB 879bn by 2030.
