Metaplanet has once again doubled down on its Bitcoin strategy, snapping up an additional 2,205 BTC for $238.7 million. This latest haul pushes the company’s total crypto stash to 15,555 BTC, roughly $1.68 billion at current prices. Asia’s Strategy is on pace to redefine corporate treasuries, and this week’s move underscores its relentless drive to convert balance sheet cash into digital gold.
Surge in Bitcoin Acquisition
On July 7, Metaplanet executed the purchase at an average price of $108,237 per Bitcoin. The fresh 2,205 BTC adds to the 1,005 BTC bought just a week earlier, marking a blistering pace of accumulation. To date, the firm has spent nearly $1.54 billion acquiring its entire holding at an average entry of $99,307. With yields soaring, 129.4% last quarter and 416.6% year-to-date, Metaplanet’s Bitcoin bet is paying off handsomely.
Fueling the Treasury Engine
Metaplanet’s Bitcoin shopping spree leans on savvy financing. Last week, the board greenlit a 19th series of ordinary bonds for its EVO Fund and simultaneously retired the interest-bearing third series. The company uses bond markets and shareholder equity to keep a strong reserve set aside just for buying BTC. The remaining bond capacity and equity lines will bankroll the next waves of digital asset acquisitions.
Climbing the Corporate Rankings
As of today, Metaplanet sits as the fifth-largest public corporate holder of Bitcoin. But it’s not stopping there. As part of its Accelerated 2025–2027 Bitcoin Plan, the company targets 30,000 BTC by the end of this year, 100,000 BTC by 2026, and an impressive 210,000 BTC by the end of 2027. These targets, if met, would vault Metaplanet into the top four globally and cement its reputation as a trailblazer in asset treasury management.
Market Momentum and Shareholder Surge
Investors have taken notice. Metaplanet’s share price ticked up 1.5% on the news, closing at ¥1,552 on Monday, and has climbed 346% year-to-date. Meanwhile, its shareholder base has exploded from 64,000 to over 128,000 in three months. As Bitcoin hovers above $108,000 and bulls eye six-figure targets, Metaplanet’s bold treasury play continues to fuel both its stock and the broader crypto-treasury narrative.
