Metaplanet expands BTC stack with $627M purchase
Tokyo-based investment firm Metaplanet has acquired an additional 5,419 BTC at an average price of roughly $115,900 per coin, pushing its total holdings to 25,555 BTC.
The purchase, valued at around 93.65 billion yen ($627 million), highlights the company’s capacity to deploy significant capital into digital assets, reports Crypto News.
Following this acquisition, Metaplanet’s average cost basis for its entire Bitcoin stack now stands at approximately $104,400 per BTC. The firm’s reserves are currently worth about 398.21 billion yen, or $2.67 billion, solidifying its position among the largest corporate Bitcoin holders globally.
Aggressive accumulation strategy backed by capital markets
The company continues to pursue rapid Bitcoin accumulation through equity offerings and debt financing. Earlier this year, Metaplanet raised more than $1 billion through an international share placement, channeling a large portion of the proceeds into BTC purchases. It also introduced the “BTC Yield” metric, designed to measure Bitcoin growth per share while accounting for shareholder dilution.
Between July 1 and September 22, this yield rose 10.3%, reflecting efficient balance sheet expansion despite increased issuance. By tying growth metrics to Bitcoin accumulation, Metaplanet is positioning itself as a proxy for investors seeking BTC exposure via equity markets.
Long-term vision to rival top corporate treasuries
Metaplanet is now recognized as Asia’s largest public corporate Bitcoin holder, surpassing firms such as Coinbase and Tesla in terms of BTC reserves. Its long-term roadmap includes holding 30,000 BTC by the end of 2025, 100,000 BTC by 2026, and 210,000 BTC by 2027 — equivalent to roughly 1% of Bitcoin’s fixed supply. These ambitions demonstrate strong conviction in Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and fiat currency weakness. Despite short-term share volatility, the company has been upgraded to mid-cap status by FTSE Russell and has attracted significant international investor participation. With its expanding U.S. footprint and aggressive treasury model, Metaplanet is emerging as one of the most influential corporate players in Bitcoin markets.
