Metaplanet has now joined the FTSE Russell’s September 2025 Semi-Annual Review, FTSE Japan Index, and FTSE All-World Index.
Metaplanet, nicknamed Asian MicroStrategy, has hit a milestone with a listing on index provider FTSE Russell’s September 2025 Semi-Annual Review. It literally went from being a small-cap to a mid-cap stock in the index provider. This way, the Japanese financial powerhouse is pumped up to go on the FTSE Japan Index.
Metaplanet Joins FTSE Japan Indexes
The FTSE Japan Index is a stock market index of mid-cap and large-cap companies listed on Japanese exchanges.
The index provider provides updates and rebalances the indexes every quarter. Metaplanet’s strong Q2 performance gave it the privilege to be added to this index, and this means that it is automatically added to the FTSE All-World Index.
This is an index of the largest publicly listed companies by market capitalization in each geographic region. It is worth noting that the inclusion of Metaplanet in each of these stock indexes will create a path for passive capital flows from the Traditional Finance (TradFi) market into the Bitcoin BTC $110 393 24h volatility: 1.8% Market cap: $2.21 T Vol. 24h: $52.35 B market, a move that will support BTC floor prices in the long run.
Also, this new development indirectly opens up passive investors to the flagship cryptocurrency. It is worth noting that since Metaplanet kicked off its Bitcoin accumulation strategy, its stock has successfully outperformed that of many top companies. According to its Q2 earnings report, the firm surpassed the Tokyo Stock Price Index (TOPIX) Core 30.
This stock market benchmark index features the likes of Toyota, Sony, Nintendo, and several other Japanese manufacturing and technology giants.
