Metaplanet Boosts Bitcoin Holdings to 25,555 BTC With $633M Purchase

Tokyo-based Metaplanet has expanded its Bitcoin treasury strategy once again, acquiring an additional 5,419 BTC valued at $633 million.

This latest buy pushes the firm’s total Bitcoin stash to 25,555 BTC, worth around $2.8 billion at current prices.

A bold addition to corporate Bitcoin treasuries

The announcement, published on September 22, shows Metaplanet paid an average of ¥17,281,012 ($116,825) per coin in its latest purchase. The company’s aggregate average cost now stands near ¥15,582,433 ($105,200) per Bitcoin, underlining a steady accumulation strategy.

The move reinforces Metaplanet’s reputation as “Asia’s MicroStrategy,” echoing the aggressive treasury model made famous by Michael Saylor’s U.S.-based firm. With its holdings surpassing 25,000 BTC, Metaplanet now ranks among the world’s largest publicly traded corporate Bitcoin holders.

Shareholder performance metrics

The company also reported updated BTC Yield, a metric tracking Bitcoin holdings relative to outstanding shares. As of September 22, its BTC Yield reached 10.3%. This reflects a steady gain from previous quarters, even after multiple capital raises to fund purchases.

According to filings, Metaplanet has utilized roughly ¥93.6 billion from recent financing rounds to secure its latest tranche of Bitcoin.

Market impact and long-term vision

While Bitcoin remains volatile, Metaplanet continues to frame its strategy as a hedge against yen depreciation and global monetary uncertainty. By building a long-term Bitcoin reserve, the firm aims to offer shareholders exposure to the world’s leading digital asset without directly owning it.

The purchase comes at a time when corporate treasuries are under renewed scrutiny for diversification strategies.
