#MetaplanetBTCPurchase

Metaplanet Inc., often dubbed “Japan’s MicroStrategy,” has continued making headlines with its aggressive Bitcoin acquisition strategy. As of June 2025, the Tokyo-based investment firm has significantly expanded its BTC holdings, purchasing an additional 50 BTC on June 13, bringing its total stash to 321 BTC, currently valued at over $21 million USD. This latest acquisition follows a pattern of steady accumulation since April 2024, when the company first began shifting its treasury reserves into Bitcoin as a long-term inflation hedge and alternative asset strategy.

Metaplanet’s move reflects a growing trend among Asian public companies embracing Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset amid rising global inflation and yen depreciation. With the Japanese yen struggling against both the dollar and Bitcoin, Metaplanet sees BTC as a superior store of value. The company’s board has even hinted at exploring Bitcoin-backed financing and tokenization strategies to increase capital efficiency.

The market responded positively, with Metaplanet’s stock rallying over 10% after the June announcement, and BTC-focused investors praising the transparency and consistency of its Bitcoin treasury strategy. Analysts suggest Metaplanet is positioning itself not only as a financial firm but also as a BTC-aligned brand, potentially opening the door for future Bitcoin ETF partnerships or token-based asset management services in Japan.

This development underscores the increasing institutional acceptance of Bitcoin in Asia and solidifies Metaplanet’s role as a pioneer in BTC corporate adoption—echoing the earlier playbook of MicroStrategy in the U.S.
