Metaplanet has increased its Bitcoin holdings by acquiring an additional 319 BTC, raising its total to 4,525. This recent purchase , valued at around ¥3.78 billion ($26.3 million) at an average price of ¥11.85 million ($82,549) per Bitcoin, highlights the company’s ambitious expansion strategy in the cryptocurrency market.

The company currently holds approximately $386.3 million in Bitcoin, with an average purchase price of about $85,366 per coin. It has recorded a significant year-to-date BTC Yield of 108.3% in 2025, building on a 309.8% increase in Q4 2024 and a 95.6% rise in early 2025. Metaplanet aims to accumulate over 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025 and reach 21,000 BTC by 2026. It has raised funds through equity and debt to finance this strategy, including zero-coupon bonds and stock rights with EVO FUND. Since January, it has issued 21 million shares under its “210 Million Plan,” successfully exercising 12.8 million shares and raising over ¥35 billion, constituting about 42% of the planned issuance. Additionally, Metaplanet has accomplished early redemptions on several bond tranches, including the full repayment of its 9th Series, funded by proceeds from the exercise of stock rights.

Notably, Metaplanet is currently the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin in Asia. Globally, U.S.-based Strategy remains the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, with a stash of 528,185 BTC worth approximately $44.5 billion. However, Strategy has recently indicated that it may need to sell part of its Bitcoin holdings to meet financial obligations if it fails to secure fresh capital. Its aggressive expansion strategy and successful fundraising efforts position it as a significant player in the Bitcoin market. As the company grows its holdings, it will be interesting to see how it navigates the challenges and opportunities in the evolving cryptocurrency landscape. With its sights set on reaching 21,000 BTC by 2026, Metaplanet is poised to remain a key figure in the global Bitcoin treasury sector.
