He explained that Japanese exchanges require preferred share dividends to be supported by sustainable, recurring cash flows, while Metaplanet still needs to demonstrate that its Bitcoin revenue business can generate stable returns across varying market conditions. Additionally, the company plans to distribute dividends monthly, whereas the Japanese market typically follows annual or semi-annual dividend schedules, and the related infrastructure remains under development.
