The post Bitplanet Launches $40M Bitcocom. Bitcoin In a move that signals the start of a new era for South Korean finance, Bitplanet has become the country’s first publicly traded firm to add Bitcoin to its corporate reserves. The company confirmed the purchase of 93 BTC, marking the opening stage of a far larger plan to integrate Bitcoin into its treasury operations. The acquisition, valued in the millions, is only the first step in what the firm describes as an “ongoing daily accumulation program”-a strategy that will eventually see Bitplanet holding up to 10, 000 BTC. The plan is being supported by Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich and Sora Ventures, both known for their work in institutional crypto expansion. From Cybersecurity Roots to Digital Treasury Pioneer Bitplanet’s transformation is striking. Once known as SGA Co., a company specializing in cybersecurity and IT infrastructure, it has now rebranded and shifted its focus toward building a Bitcoin-focused financial model. The firm says this evolution is part of a long-term vision to modernize its corporate structure and adapt to the realities of a digital economy. For the past month, @Bitplanet_KR has been quietly building the most reliable and compliant Bitcoin treasury infrastructure in Korea culminating in becoming the first public company to purchase Bitcoin directly through a licensed domestic crypto exchange.

(@Bitplanet_KR) October 26, 2025 According to Co-CEO Paul Lee, the transition was not a sudden pivot but a carefully executed strategy built on transparency and risk control. “Our treasury plan operates under the same financial oversight expected of any listed company,” he said, adding that all transactions are conducted through systems monitored by the Financial Services Commission (FSC). Lee also revealed that the company had already begun its purchasing phase quietly, testing operational systems and reporting mechanisms for two weeks before.
