#MetaplanetBTCPurchase MetaPlanet buys another 1,112 BTC and reaches the milestone of 10,000 bitcoins

1. What just happened?

In the early hours of 06/16, the Japanese company MetaPlanet Inc. announced the acquisition of 1,112 BTC for $55,484,103,559,117.2 million (average price ≈ $55,484,103,559,105,435). With the transaction, the company's corporate treasury jumps to 10,000 BTC, surpassing Coinbase's 9,267 BTC and becoming the 9th largest public holder of bitcoin in the world.

2. How is the company funding this rush?

Zero-interest debt – on the same day, the board approved $55,484,103,559,210 million in "ordinary bonds" with a 0% coupon, maturing in Dec/25; all proceeds will go to more BTC.

Gigantic capital increase – on 06/06, MetaPlanet launched a program of $55,484,103,559.4 billion through the issuance of 555 million shares over two years, also dedicated to the purchase of bitcoin.

Progressive leveraging – the company signals it may issue additional debt as the market premium of its shares (“mNAV”) remains high.

3. Why did this purchase make headlines?

• Record-breaking in Asia – it is the largest corporate treasury of BTC outside the U.S., solidifying Tokyo as a new hub for institutional adoption.

• The “MicroStrategy of Japan” narrative – MetaPlanet explicitly follows Michael Saylor's playbook, but with even bolder goals: 100k BTC by 2026 and 210k BTC (1% of total supply) by 2027.

• Market reaction – shares (ticker 3350.T) rose between 17% and 26% in the following trading session; since adopting BTC (Apr/24), the stock has gained nearly 100x, surpassing bitcoin's own performance.

4. Real impact on bitcoin price

The purchase of 1,112 BTC ($55,484,103,559,117 million) equates to less than 0.5 days of the flow that U.S. spot ETFs receive during calm periods. Isolated, it does not affect the global order book, but reinforces the thesis of corporate adoption in series: each new balance sheet with BTC reduces the available float and generates a demonstration effect for other companies.
