Metaplanet CEO joins investment in Korean company to boost Asia crypto treasuries

Consortium uses M&A to advance corporate Bitcoin adoption across Asia

Simon Gerovich, CEO of Tokyo-based Metaplanet, is part of a consortium that is negotiating to acquire a controlling stake in SGA, a publicly traded software services company listed on South Korea’s KOSDAQ. The deal, if finalized, would position SGA to acquire Bitcoin as part of a broader digital asset strategy.

While Gerovich is listed as an independent investor — not acting on behalf of Metaplanet — the move aligns with the company’s growing Bitcoin treasury strategy. According to a press release from Top Win International, (SORA on the Nasdaq stock exchange), “proceeds from the issuance will be used for strategic asset acquisitions and general corporate purposes.”

Acquisitions such as this are part of a broader strategy to accelerate corporate Bitcoin adoption across Asia by transforming traditional companies into Bitcoin-aligned entities, using deals to position companies like DV8 and SGA as vehicles for Bitcoin exposure in regional capital markets.
