Odaily Planet Daily News Metaplanet Capital Strategy Head Shinpei Okuno posted on the X platform that preferred stocks are an undeveloped capital market area in Japan. Currently, there is almost no capital market for listed preferred stocks in Japan (perhaps only Ito En, SoftBank and Infronia).
Shinpei Okuno added that the preferred stock strategy can attract a wide range of investors by providing financial products supported by Bitcoin. It will be a good thing if financial instruments such as Strategy's preferred stocks STRF/STRK/STRD can be freely traded in the Japanese capital market, because the greatest potential of companies adopting Bitcoin reserve strategies may be to create fixed dividend products supported by Bitcoin.
