Enish, a Japanese, Tokyo Exchange-listed gaming company, has become the latest developer to announce plans to buy Bitcoin (BTC).
The firm, which launched in 2009, said it would use its balance sheet to purchase 100 million yen ($667,260) worth of Bitcoin.
Enish: Bitcoin Purchase to Complete by April 4The Tokyo-based company, which has worked on mobile games such as De:Lithe – The King of Oblivion and Angel of the Covenant said the move would help it strengthen its web3 business operations.

The company added that an unnamed domestic crypto exchange would help it complete its BTC buy orders.
The company already has considerable crypto and web3 interests. Another of its De:Lithe titles, Last Memories, is a blockchain game.
The firm said its BTC buy would help “deepen understanding” of blockchain technology and “strengthen” its “technical capabilities” in the development sector.
Enish also wrote that crypto-buying was now “part of its financial strategy.” The firm added that it aims to diversify its financial assets, while “taking advantage of the liquidity and stability” of the Bitcoin market.

And the gaming firm explained that it would conduct quarterly reviews on its Bitcoin investment.
It concluded by promising to record any unrealized gains or losses in its regular financial reports.
A former Bank of Japan board member who just finished his term said that unless US tariffs trigger global market turmoil, the central bank could raise its benchmark rate at its next policy meeting, given Japan’s improving inflation dynamics. https://t.co/Mdlqo8EKvj
