Metaplanet sold 10,000 bitcoin in Q3 after denying sale rumours - timing unclear

Japanese investment firm Metaplanet said it sold 10,000 bitcoin in the third quarter of 2026 and later repurchased 11,000, leaving net holdings up 1,000 bitcoin. It disclosed total holdings of 44,000 bitcoin as of Sept. 30. The disclosure followed CEO Simon Gerovich\'s denial in August of market speculation about a sale. The company said the sale was for credit purposes, not cash flow, and cited possible U.S. tax effects.
