This move continues Metaplanet’s aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy. The firm began focusing on Bitcoin treasury operations in December 2024. Since then, it has grown its holdings from under 4,000 BTC in March to over 15,500 BTC by July.
BTC Yield Shows Shareholder Impact
Metaplanet tracks a metric called BTC Yield. This shows the change in bitcoin holdings per fully diluted share. It also helps measure the impact of share dilution on value. From July 1 to July 7, BTC Yield increased by 15.1%. During that period, the firm added 2,017 BTC worth 31.7 billion yen.
The company also reports BTC Gain and BTC Yen Gain. These show hypothetical growth in bitcoin and yen terms. Together, these indicators provide insight into the firm’s Bitcoin strategy.
The reported BTC Yield for the latest quarter stood at 95.6%. In the previous quarter, it had reached 309.8%. The firm views BTC Yield as a key signal for shareholder value growth.
Funding Through Market and Income
Metaplanet has used a mix of strategies to fund its Bitcoin purchases. These include capital market activities and income from operations. Recently, the company redeemed 6 billion yen early from a bond issuance. It repaid this using funds raised through recent stock rights exercises.
This approach reflects a more aggressive stance than traditional corporate treasury models. Since early 2025, Metaplanet has more than quadrupled its Bitcoin position. The firm now ranks as the fifth-largest corporate holder of bitcoin globally.
Concerns and Wider Market Context
These gains were largely positive, but there have been concerns by some analysts. They have raised doubts about the sustainability of Bitcoins treasury policies. Analysts warn that easy returns may not continue as more firms enter the space.
The strategy has drawn comparisons to MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin model. However, legal action against MicroStrategy over alleged investor misrepresentation has added caution. Meanwhile, Metaplanet remains focused on its expansion. The firm has set a target to reach 210,000 BTC by the end of 2027.
