Metaplanet

Metaplanet’s CEO, Simon Gerovich, says the company is seizing Bitcoin’s “gold rush” era to build one of the world’s biggest BTC treasuries, setting an ambitious goal to hold at least 210,000 BTC by the end of 2027.In a fresh interview with the Financial Times, Gerovich detailed the company’s two-phase plan. The first phase focuses on relentless BTC accumulation to hit what he calls “escape velocity” — a level of Bitcoin holdings that makes it nearly impossible for competitors to catch up.
“We think of it as a Bitcoin gold rush,” Gerovich said. “We need to accumulate as much bitcoin as we can to get to a point where we’ve reached escape velocity, and it just makes it very difficult for others to catch up.”
Once that mark is reached, Metaplanet plans to pivot. Phase two involves leveraging Bitcoin like government bonds or securities, using it as collateral to secure low-cost financing from banks. The cash would then fund acquisitions of profitable, cash-flowing businesses, diversifying the company’s income streams beyond crypto.
Gerovich added that this approach could position Metaplanet to operate like a hybrid between a Bitcoin bank and an investment company.
Already Surpassing Coinbase
Metaplanet’s BTC reserves have already surpassed Coinbase’s treasury, despite the exchange being an early crypto giant since Bitcoin traded below $30. According to BitcoinTreasuries.net, Metaplanet currently holds 15,555 BTC, placing it fifth worldwide. If it hits its 210,000 BTC target, it would trail only Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy, which sits at the top of the Bitcoin treasury leaderboard.
Gerovich emphasized that Metaplanet’s journey is still in its “really, really early” days, estimating the Bitcoin accumulation phase could span four to six years before fully pivoting into its next stage.
“Four to six years is probably phase one in this Bitcoin accumulation phase, and then beyond that it becomes incrementally more difficult,” he explained.
Metaplanet’s aggressive BTC strategy underscores a growing trend among companies betting big on Bitcoin’s long-term value as digital gold, a store of wealth, and eventually a mainstream financial asset used for secured borrowing.
With Bitcoin continuing to gain institutional acceptance, Metaplanet’s bold play is one more sign that the era of major corporate BTC treasuries may only be getting started.

🔹 Japanese firm MetaPlanet has taken the Tokyo Stock Exchange by storm, ranking as the most traded stock in the Standard Market for the seventh month in a row this June. The numbers speak for themselves: a whopping ¥1.86 trillion in trading volume, surpassing even national giants like Toyota and Sony.
🔹 Compared to May’s ¥997.6 billion in trading volume, MetaPlanet nearly doubled its activity. The reason behind this investor frenzy? Its bold and unconventional strategy: a massive bet on Bitcoin.

Bitcoin at the Core: MetaPlanet Builds Around Digital Gold
MetaPlanet has made it clear—Bitcoin isn’t just an asset, it’s a core part of its corporate vision. This aggressive Bitcoin acquisition strategy drove a strong rise in its share price throughout June. And the buying spree continues: on July 7, the company announced another BTC purchase, bringing its total Bitcoin holdings to ¥225.8 billion.

Outpacing Traditional Japanese Industry Icons
While MetaPlanet leads the Standard Market, it also outperformed top players in the Prime Market when it comes to trading volume:
🔹 Toyota Motor – ¥1.64 trillion

🔹 Sony Group – ¥1.31 trillion
Only Advantest held a higher volume in June on the Prime Market with ¥4.85 trillion. Still, MetaPlanet stands out as a rare example of how a relatively lesser-known company can soar into the spotlight through strategic exposure to Bitcoin.

Digital Assets Are Reshaping Traditional Finance
MetaPlanet’s rise signals a broader trend: Bitcoin and digital assets are increasingly being integrated into traditional corporate strategies and financial markets. Investors in Japan and beyond now look to MetaPlanet as a symbol of this new era—where crypto is no longer just a speculative tool, but a core strategic asset.

Japanese investment firm Metaplanet continues its aggressive Bitcoin accumulation, having recently purchased an additional 2,205 BTC for approximately $237.9 million. These tokens were acquired at an average price of $107,800 per Bitcoin, bringing the company’s total holdings to 15,555 BTC.

This marks the firm’s largest single-day purchase since the launch of its Bitcoin acquisition strategy, which is funded through a mix of bond issuances and exercised stock warrants. Just prior to this acquisition, Metaplanet repaid ¥6 billion in bonds using proceeds from newly exercised warrants — funds that were again directly converted into Bitcoin.

Since the beginning of its strategy, Metaplanet has spent a total of ¥225.8 billion (roughly $1.6 billion) on Bitcoin. The firm has ambitious goals: it aims to hold 30,000 BTC by the end of 2025, 100,000 BTC by 2026, and 210,000 BTC by 2027 — which would represent around 1% of Bitcoin’s total supply.

With its most recent purchases, Metaplanet has entered the top five corporate Bitcoin holders and is closing in on the fourth position, currently held by mining company Riot Platforms with 19,225 BTC.

In Q2 2025 alone, Metaplanet saw a return of 129.4% on its Bitcoin assets, followed by an additional 15.1% gain in the first week of July. During Q2, the company acquired 5,237 BTC worth approximately $513 million, and another 2,017 BTC worth around $198 million at the beginning of July.

If Metaplanet maintains this pace, it could soon become one of the most influential corporate entities in the Bitcoin space.

Michael Saylor’s #MicroStrategy may have paused buying for now, but the $BTC game is far from over. They still made $14B in profits from Bitcoin in Q2 and plan to raise $4.2B more to stack again.
Meanwhile, others are stepping up big:
✅ #Metaplanet owns 15,555 BTC
✅ The Smarter Web now holds 1,000 BTC
✅ Blockchain Group holds 1,904 BTC
✅ Hilbert Group starts a BTC reserve
✅ NIP Group entered mining — aiming for 60 BTC/month
#bitcoin has a limited supply, and the big players are stacking fast. This could trigger the next major price move.
Do you think this supply crunch can push Bitcoin to a new ATH?
