#MetaplanetBTCPurchase

Metaplanet, a Japanese investment firm, has become a prominent "Bitcoin treasury" company, emulating MicroStrategy's strategy in the US. As of June 16, 2025, Metaplanet has significantly increased its Bitcoin holdings, reaching a total of 10,000 BTC. This recent surge was driven by an acquisition of an additional 1,112 BTC for approximately $117.2 million, at an average price of $105,435 per coin.

This latest purchase positions Metaplanet as the ninth-largest publicly traded Bitcoin holder, surpassing even Coinbase. The company's total investment in Bitcoin is now around $947 million, with an average cost basis of $94,698 per BTC.

To fund future acquisitions, Metaplanet recently announced a plan to issue $210 million in zero-interest ordinary bonds to the EVO Fund. Metaplanet's aggressive Bitcoin strategy has led to a remarkable surge in its stock price, up over 2,000% in the past year, reflecting strong investor confidence in its Bitcoin-centric approach, especially given Japan's weakening yen and high government debt. The company has ambitious targets, aiming to hold 210,000 BTC (1% of total supply) by the end of 2027.
