Metaplanet has reached a new milestone in its Bitcoin accumulation strategy, confirming that it now holds 20,000 BTC in its corporate treasury.
The latest purchase added 1,009 BTC at an average price of about $102,700 each, bringing its total investment close to $2 billion, reports CoinGape.
This follows a smaller 103 BTC acquisition earlier this month at a higher average cost of $113,491, showing the firm’s opportunistic approach to buying during market pullbacks. The Japanese firm has emerged as one of the most aggressive Bitcoin treasuries globally, positioning itself alongside companies such as Strategy, which controls over 632,000 BTC. By reaching 20,000 BTC, Metaplanet strengthens its reputation as a key player among corporate holders. Analysts note that the strategy reflects a long-term bet on Bitcoin as both a hedge against Japan’s weak yen and a tool to enhance corporate value.
Stock market reaction to ongoing purchases
Despite these bold moves, Metaplanet’s stock has faced notable volatility. Following the latest announcement, shares fell 4% to 844 yen, extending a broader weekly decline of nearly 7%. The stock had previously soared more than 400% earlier in 2025, but has since lost nearly half its value since mid-June, according to Bloomberg. This sharp correction raises concerns about the company’s ability to sustain its financing strategy, which heavily relies on equity issuance.
To stabilize its outlook, Metaplanet unveiled plans to raise $884 million through an overseas share offering and may also issue preferred stock pending shareholder approval. Analysts suggest that while the stock’s correction reflects investor caution, the firm’s underlying strategy to build a massive Bitcoin reserve remains intact. Market participants are closely watching whether share dilution impacts long-term investor appetite.
Strategic vision and political connections
Metaplanet’s ambition extends beyond simple treasury accumulation, with the company targeting over 210,000 BTC by 2027, representing more than 1% of Bitcoin’s total supply. To support this plan, Metaplanet continues to explore innovative financing approaches, including equity raises and income generation through covered call options on its Bitcoin holdings. The firm also deepened its global financial ties by granting Eric Trump 3.3 million shares via stock acquisition rights, signaling the intersection of politics and corporate Bitcoin adoption.
While this has added visibility, it also places Metaplanet in a unique position at the crossroads of financial strategy and international influence. Despite near-term volatility in both its stock and Bitcoin markets, the company remains committed to scaling its treasury. Observers believe that its long-term conviction in Bitcoin as a reserve asset will keep Metaplanet central to discussions about corporate crypto adoption worldwide.
