#MetaplanetBTCPurchase

Metaplanet, a Japanese investment firm listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (3350.T), has aggressively expanded its Bitcoin (BTC) treasury, reaching 10,000 BTC by June 16, 2025, with a $111.2 million purchase of 1,112 BTC at an average price of $100,000. Since adopting Bitcoin as a strategic reserve in April 2024, Metaplanet has acquired BTC at an average cost of $86,672, surpassing El Salvador and ranking as Asia’s largest corporate holder and eighth globally. The firm aims for 100,000 BTC by 2026 and 210,000 by 2027, raising $5.4 billion through stock and bond issuances, including $50 million in zero-interest bonds. Metaplanet’s strategy, mirroring MicroStrategy, hedges against yen volatility and inflation, driving a 5,000% stock price surge since April 2024. Critics warn of a potential bubble, with shares trading at a premium. Vietnam’s regulatory stance on crypto remains cautious, unrelated to Metaplanet’s activities.
