Tokyo Stock Exchange-listed company TORICO announced its ETH Treasury Strategy, raising 470 million yen to be used entirely for purchasing Ethereum.

According to Mars Finance, Tokyo Stock Exchange-listed TORICO (operating "Manga Complete Dot Com") has entered into a capital business partnership with Web3 gaming platform Mint Town, raising approximately 470 million yen, all of which will be used to purchase Ethereum (ETH). Mint Town will become TORICO's largest shareholder, holding approximately 23.36% of the shares. Its CEO, Hirohiro Kunimitsu, will serve as TORICO's "Financial Security Strategy Advisor" and is expected to join the board of directors in June 2026. Kunimitsu defines this strategy as "Financial Security (DAT) 2," emphasizing that ETH, as "digital oil," not only has practical value but can also generate cash flow through staking and DeFi operations, creating a differentiated investment strategy from Bitcoin, which is considered "digital gold." TORICO plans to begin purchasing ETH in phases starting in January 2026.
