Both have followed the approach of Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) , opting for creative financing solutions to raise funds for purchasing more Bitcoin. Plus, they both report on BTC Yield, a key performance indicator popularized by Strategy co-founder Michael Saylor and his firm which measures the ratio of a company’s Bitcoin holdings to its assumed shares outstanding. 

Metaplanet reported a 416% BTC Yield year-to-date, while Semler has achieved a yield of 29% year-to-date.
