Metaplanet is doubling down on Bitcoin, once again adding a massive chunk of BTC to its balance sheet. Investors cheered the move, sending the stock of the Japanese investment firm soaring by over 20%. 🚀
Metaplanet Continues Its Bitcoin Accumulation Spree – Strategy Paying Off
Metaplanet recently purchased an impressive 497 Bitcoin for $43.9 million, bringing its total BTC holdings to 2,888 BTC, currently worth around $240 million at today’s Bitcoin price. The latest acquisition was made at an average price of $88,448 per Bitcoin. Despite market fluctuations, Metaplanet remains steadfast in its accumulation strategy.
The company has set ambitious goals:
- 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025
- 21,000 BTC by the end of 2026
This approach mirrors the strategy of MicroStrategy, led by Michael Saylor, which famously holds a massive portion of its reserves in Bitcoin. Metaplanet now owns over 0.01% of the total Bitcoin supply, making it one of the top 15 corporate BTC holders. However, it still has a long way to go to match MicroStrategy’s jaw-dropping 499,096 BTC stash, which makes it the largest publicly traded Bitcoin holder by far.
The latest Metaplanet Bitcoin buy comes during a period of significant volatility. Earlier this week, Bitcoin dipped to $83,000, partly due to new US import tariffs on goods from Canada, Mexico, and China. While many retail investors panicked, Metaplanet stayed cool, continuing to stack sats and strengthen its digital reserves.
New Financing Tactics to Fund Bitcoin Purchases
Metaplanet’s financial strategy appears to be working wonders. CEO Simon Gerovich recently reported that the company’s Bitcoin return for 2025 has hit 45.1%, well above its target of 35% per quarter. This return is measured by the percentage change in the ratio of total Bitcoin holdings to all outstanding and potentially issued shares.
To fuel its aggressive Bitcoin accumulation plan, Metaplanet has launched a new financing round. The company has secured a staggering $745 million through Zero-Discount Moving Strike Warrants, a financing model that allows investors to purchase shares in a more flexible manner without immediately impacting market value.
Metaplanet claims this is the largest capital raise in Asia’s history, underscoring its commitment to becoming a dominant Bitcoin player. With an unshakable conviction in BTC’s future, the company is proving that corporate Bitcoin adoption is no passing trend—it’s a long-term strategic play.
