Metaplanet Boosts Bitcoin Holdings by 162 BTC, Aims for 10,000 by 2025
1min read Tokyo-based investment firm Metaplanet has recently expanded its Bitcoin holdings by acquiring an additional 162 BTC for approximately $13.3 million. This purchase was executed at an average price of $83,123 per coin, elevating the company's total Bitcoin holdings to 3,050 BTC. The current market value of Metaplanet's Bitcoin portfolio stands at around $249.4 million.
Metaplanet's aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy is in line with its ambitious goals of acquiring 10,000 BTC by 2025 and 21,000 BTC by 2026. This strategy is part of the company's broader vision to spearhead Japan's Bitcoin renaissance, inspired by the approach of Michael Saylor’s Strategy. The firm's latest purchase follows a previous acquisition of 497 Bitcoin for $43.9 million, made just a week prior. This brings the total number of Bitcoin purchased by Metaplanet in 2025 to nearly 1,300 BTC, demonstrating the company's unwavering commitment to the leading cryptocurrency.
Despite recent short-term fluctuations in the Bitcoin market, Metaplanet remains bullish on the asset's future price performance. The company's CEO, Simon Gerovich, revealed that Metaplanet's BTC yield performance for 2025 stood at 53.2%, surpassing its target of 35% yield per quarter. BTC yield is calculated as the percentage change in the ratio of total Bitcoin holdings to fully diluted shares outstanding.
Metaplanet's strategy of accumulating Bitcoin mirrors that of Michael Saylor’s Strategy, with the firm now owning over 0.01% of Bitcoin’s total circulating supply. This positions Metaplanet among the top 13 largest corporate Bitcoin holders globally. In Asia, the firm is second only to a China-based poker game giant, which currently holds 3,183 BTC.
To fuel its Bitcoin acquisition strategy, Metaplanet has implemented innovative financing methods. The company recently announced a $745 million fundraising initiative through zero-discount moving strike warrants, described as the largest-ever raise in Asia to purchase Bitcoin. This initiative highlights Metaplanet's dedication to increasing its Bitcoin holdings and establishing itself as a prominent player in the cryptocurrency market.
Bitcoin investment involves buying and holding Bitcoin (BTC) with the expectation of future price appreciation. It is considered a high-risk, high-reward asset due to its volatility. Investors can acquire Bitcoin through exchanges, brokers, or peer-to-peer platforms.
Key points to consider:
Volatility: Bitcoin prices fluctuate significantly.
Security: Store Bitcoin in secure wallets (hardware or software).
Long-term vs. Short-term: Some investors hold for years, while others trade for short-term gains.
Regulation & Risks: Governments may impose regulations, and cybersecurity threats exist.
Diversification: Bitcoin should be part of a broader investment strategy, not the sole asset.
Research and risk management are crucial before investing.
