Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich has admitted his company’s Bitcoin investment strategy is inspired by MicroStrategy and its executive chairman Michael Saylor — whose firm currently holds over 252,000 Bitcoin worth $16.45 billion.

Gerovich’s firm said in May that it would adopt an “entire range of capital market instruments” to bolster its Bitcoin reserves — similar to MicroStrategy’s playbook.

It included taking out a $6.8 million loan from one of its shareholders to buy more Bitcoin in August.

Metaplanet boasts the 23rd largest Bitcoin holdings among public companies, according to Bitcoin Treasuries.
