The reported allocation is not being framed as a short-term bet on crypto prices. CoinPost said the main goal is currency risk diversification. The fund’s fiscal 2025 asset mix stood at 80% yen, 15% dollars and 5% other currencies.

For fiscal 2026, the fund plans to cut yen exposure to 70% and add a 10% allocation to developed-market currencies. Another 5% would include emerging-market currencies, gold and crypto. Aiyu Kiguchi, the fund’s investment executive director, reportedly said the dollar “may lose its status as a reserve currency,” explaining why the fund did not raise dollar holdings.
