Kickoff complete! Our team recently wrapped up a successful program kickoff for the Space-Based Airborne Moving Target Indicator (SB-AMTI) demonstrations in support of @USSpaceForce.
We’re delivering Flatellites with innovative space-based sensing technologies to help mature resilient capabilities for the Joint Force.
Data from Friday doesn’t indicate any meaningful covering of short positions. The lending pool also appears to be almost depleted. It looks like a very precarious situation for anyone still short Metaplanet.
Overseas investors dumping Metaplanet on recent management comp issues made the classic mistake of viewing a Tokyo-listed asset through a standard Western lens. To foreign investors, it might not look like good corporate governance. To domestic Japanese capital, Metaplanet stock is an economic life raft.
Japan’s debt-to-GDP is above 260%. The BoJ is boxed in, real yields are deeply negative, and holding cash in yen guarantees steady purchasing power destruction.
Here is Metaplanet's structural moat:
- Regulatory Monopoly: Zero spot ETFs approved (earliest in 2028), no liquid domestic alternatives. Even MSTR cannot crack this market due to regulatory hurdles, language barriers, and domestic brokerage integration etc.
- Execution Moat: An insurmountable 43,000 BTC head start backed by an 8-quarter track record of income generation with imminent US & Japan prefs. The ONLY multi-jurisdiction treasury company in the world. The ONLY treasury company owns a Type I securities subsidiary.
- The Capital Arbitrage: Japan is the world's second-largest developed capital market, sitting on trillions of yen in 0% bank deposits starving for yield. While US peers have to offer punitive 12%+ coupons to compete for Wall Street credit, Metaplanet can tap domestic Japanese liquidity at an ultra-low 5%–6% cost of capital.
- The Tax Shield: Spot Bitcoin in Japan is taxed as miscellaneous income up to 55%. Holding Metaplanet stocks is taxed at 20% (and 0% inside a tax-free NISA account).
There is literally no real competitor in sight that can replicate this setup in Japan. There is no "Japanese SATA vs STRC" scenario. Western capital traded the governance noise and panic-sold at 0.8x mNAV. Domestic capital is buying the only regulated escape hatch from sovereign debasement.
Do you really believe a quasi-monopoly in Japan can stay at sub 1x mNAV for long? Thinking about a few generational companies selling at screaming price in 2022 - $APP, $PLTR, $RKLB, you have another one here.

Behind every supply chain are thousands of interconnected decisions involving sourcing, production, inventory, transportation and fulfillment. As operations grow more complex and conditions change, traditional optimization approaches can struggle to keep pace.
Annealing quantum computing offers a powerful new way to address these challenges, helping organizations improve planning and logistics, navigate real-world constraints and respond more effectively to disruption.
Meet the D-Wave team at booth 41 during the North American Supply Chain Executive Summit, Sept. 21–23 in Las Vegas, to explore how quantum optimization can address supply chain challenges.

2/ Are classical methods limiting our agility?
In fast-moving environments—logistics, manufacturing, supply chains, energy markets, retail—decisions often need to be recalculated continuously.
Failure to do so can limit companies' resilience to disruption.
If optimization runs take hours (or days), you can only be so responsive. The faster companies can adapt, the greater their competitive advantage.
1/ What is complexity costing us?
As optimization problems grow in complexity, trade-offs emerge when using classical-only solutions:
→ Longer solve times
→ Rising compute and energy costs
→ Fewer scenarios explored
If you're narrowing problems to fit your optimization solvers, that's a strategic compromise that could be leaving missed opportunities for efficiencies, innovation, and even revenue.
81% of surveyed business leaders say they’ve reached the limits of classical optimization. But complexity alone doesn’t make a problem a fit for quantum.
Leaders should consider its structure, scale, constraints, business value and the performance of existing approaches.
Here are 7 questions that can help you assess whether quantum optimization could address some of your organization’s toughest challenges. 🧵
