Metaplanet has expanded its shareholder benefits program and introduced a new top tier called the Nakamoto tier. The company approved the program during a board meeting to strengthen engagement with its investors. The initiative connects shared ownership with rewards linked to the Bitcoin ecosystem. Eligible shareholders will be those listed in the company registry as of June 30, 2026.
The program also adds a structured loyalty system based on the number of shares held and the holding period. Investors who own at least one trading unit, equal to 100 shares, will qualify. The company stated that the program aims to encourage medium to long term investment while providing additional value to shareholders.
Four Tier Loyalty System Based on Holdings and Duration
The expanded program introduces four shareholder tiers. These are Silver, Gold, Diamond, and the Nakamoto tier. The classification depends on both share ownership and how long the shares are held. Shareholders with 100 to 300 shares will begin at the Silver tier.
Investors holding between 301 and 2,000 shares can move to the Gold tier depending on the holding period. Diamond status is available to investors with larger holdings, including those holding more than 2,001 shares. The Nakamoto tier represents the highest level in the program. It is reserved for shareholders who hold more than 50,001 shares for at least 24 months.
The tier takes its name from Bitcoin’s pseudonymous creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. Metaplanet said the structure rewards investors who maintain long term holdings. The company also noted that shareholders who keep their shares for more than two years will qualify for improved benefits within each tier.
Crypto Partnerships Offer Bitcoin Rewards and Discounts
The updated benefits program includes partnerships with 13 companies. Many of these partners operate in the digital asset industry and provide rewards linked to Bitcoin services. Coincheck will provide a Bitcoin lottery valued at up to ¥20 million. Binance Japan plans to run a campaign offering up to 20% annual percentage yield on Bitcoin deposits. OKCoin Japan will offer trading fee rebates worth up to ¥150,000.
Hardware wallet providers Blockstream and Tangem will provide discounts based on the shareholder’s tier level. These benefits aim to combine financial exposure to Bitcoin with tools that support asset storage and trading.
The program also includes partners outside the crypto sector. These companies operate in dining, travel, coworking spaces, entertainment, and streaming services. Higher tier investors will receive larger discounts and additional offers through these partnerships.
Exclusive Events and Community Initiatives Planned
Metaplanet also plans to organize events for shareholders starting in January 2027. Some events will be limited to specific tiers within the program. The company intends to open a membership lounge at Hotel Royal Oak Gotanda. Access will depend on the shareholder’s loyalty level.
Nakamoto tier investors will receive invitations to exclusive gatherings organized by the company. One of these gatherings will be an annual dinner called “Ohapura,” reserved for top tier holders. The company stated that these events aim to build stronger ties within the shareholder community.
Metaplanet said the program aligns with its Bitcoin treasury strategy. The company currently holds 35,102 BTC and targets 100,000 BTC by the end of the year. Its shareholder base has grown to about 216,500 investors. Shares of Metaplanet closed at ¥373 on March 13. The price rose 5.97% during the session and reached an intraday high of ¥393.
