The Japanese public company, Metaplanet, has once again captured the attention of the global crypto market after announcing the purchase of 1,112 Bitcoin worth approximately $110 million on June 16, 2025. With this purchase, their total BTC holdings now reach 10,000 BTC.
This move was funded through the issuance of zero-coupon bonds worth $210 million to EVO Fund. The instruments will mature in December 2025 and come with early redemption options, allowing flexibility in financial risk management.
Metaplanet's strategy reflects an aggressive approach to integrating Bitcoin into the company's balance sheet, similar to MicroStrategy but with Asian characteristics. They demonstrate a long-term commitment to BTC as a primary reserve asset and strengthen their position as one of the public entities with the largest Bitcoin exposure in the world.
