The company justified its move by stating that increasing inflation and the dangers attached to holding cash reserves influenced its decision. Lib Work also mentioned overseas expansion, adding that a Bitcoin treasury might enhance its international strategy. The company seeks to minimize vulnerability to domestic economic changes by diversifying assets to increase its financial stability.

This strategy follows an increase in the number of Tokyo-listed companies that are including Bitcoin in their balance sheets. Over 289 companies all over the world possess close to 3.67 million BTC, whose market worth is more than $418 billion. Japan has become one of the major hubs of the trend, as both large financial institutions and more recent technological companies have shifted towards investing in cryptocurrency.

Lib Work Announces Bitcoin Treasury Plan Amid Japan’s Corporate Adoption Surge

Lib Work’s entry into Bitcoin treasury strategies mirrors a wider shift in Japan’s corporate sector. Various firms have also invested heavily in digital assets this year. Metaplanet has been the most prominent in Asia, owning 18,888 Bitcoin. In the second quarter of 2025, the company recorded a 468% yield, ranking it among the top 10 corporate Bitcoin holders globally.

Remixpoint, an energy consulting firm, raised 31.5 billion yen in July to target a Bitcoin accumulation strategy. The company now holds more than 1,000 Bitcoin and also invests in Ethereum, Solana, and Avalanche. Bakkt Holdings went a different route and purchased a 30% stake in textile manufacturer Marusho Hotta for $115 million. The company renamed it to Bitcoin.jp and took ownership of the domain to branch out into crypto treasury activity.

Gumi, a gaming developer, also expanded into digital assets. The firm announced a Bitcoin lottery worth $106,000 for shareholders and confirmed plans to invest 1 billion yen in Bitcoin. It also became Japan’s first listed validator for Babylon, a Bitcoin staking service. Meanwhile, SBI Holdings is preparing to launch exchange-traded funds featuring Bitcoin and XRP, alongside hybrid funds linked to gold.

The momentum is further reinforced by government support. The Financial Services Agency aims to group cryptocurrencies as financial products in line with the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act before 2026. The tax reforms might propose to cut the capital gains taxes on crypto.

Company Expands NFT Housing Blueprint Strategy Through Blockchain

Lib Work has also ventured into blockchain in the form of non-fungible tokens. The company released its first NFT associated with a 3D-printed housing design, the Lib Earth House Model B, in July. The NFT uses the blockchain to document ownership information and intellectual rights. The purpose of this system is to defend innovative designs and avoid illegal copying of digital blueprints.

The company elaborated that 3D-printed houses are closely related to digital files, so they need robust intellectual property protection. The management considers blockchain as an instrument of securing rights, minimizing expenses, and meeting shortages of labor in construction.
