MetaPlanet Launches Online Clothing Store As Part of ‘Brand Strategy’

Metaplanet:- In a calculated and smart brand strategy, leading Bitcoin treasury company, Metaplanet, has entered the merchandise market.

Announced on Tuesday, the company in collaboration with Bitcoin Magazine of Japan has launched its first official online store named “PlanetGear.” With this, the holder of $17,594 Bitcoin aims to bring products that embody the digital asset’s philosophy and culture into modern lifestyle designs.

After its hospitality business, this marks the firm’s third major segment apart from being the leading Bitcoin-centric holding company.

Behind Metaplanet’s Launch of PlanetGear

PlanetGear will also give the Metaplanet community a new way to show their support and express identity through style. It’s a form of grassroots marketing – when someone wears Metaplanet merch, they become a walking conversation starter and brand ambassador.

While Metaplanet operates primarily in Bitcoin-focused investment and finance, PlanetGear can also offer a new commercial avenue. It can help the company generate revenue outside of its Bitcoin holdings, an especially smart move during market volatility.

This is just the started move. According to its press rele, it said that “we plan to expand into event-linked product releases and further
collaborations, in line with our mission to create long-term corporate value centered around Bitcoin.”

Joining a Growing Trend in Web3?

The move by Metaplanet follows other web3 brands seeking real world adoption and recognition. For example, Pudgy Penguins has expanded beyond NFTs into physical merchandise that includes toys and apparel. After its 2021 launch, the CEO Netz lead team has been turning the avatar project into a full-blown consumer brand.

Another example is from NFT player, CryptoPunks. Following Yuga Labs’s acquisition of the IP, it allows holders to license their Punk artwork for limited “Hndsm” apparel drops. It also allows luxury jeweler Tiffany & Co. released “NFTiff” pendants tied to specific Punk IDs.

Uniswap Labs also runs shop.uniswap.org, including a high-profile KidSuper × Uniswap collab. It sells physical wallet, unicorn tees, pink hats and periodic limited-edition drops for the community.

For an industry that is still tackling regulatory and reliability nets, branded merchandise is indeed becoming a good marketing strategy. As the physical extension of the brand experience, it creates something that is visible, shareable, and emotionally resonant.
