VanEck rates Metaplanet worst among top bitcoin treasuries on executive pay

  • Metaplanet's option pool is 14.7% of diluted shares, 3.7 times the average of nine other DAT companies
  • Top managers hold 8.2%, 10.4 times the average; the largest single executive package is 3.8%
  • Strategy and BitMine received "Good" ratings with pools of 2.0% and 3.2%, Forward Industries was "Acceptable" at 8.4%
  • VanEck: before cuts, Metaplanet passed on to shareholders only about 80% of the bitcoin it bought, with 20% absorbed by management dilution
Why it matters: The report increases pressure on bitcoin treasury corporate governance: investors may demand limits on option pools and tying pay to per-share metrics.
