Bitcoin Strategy:
As of mid-June 2025, Metaplanet owns 10,000 BTC, having just completed the purchase of 1,112 BTC for about $117 million.
The company funded this and previous acquisitions through the issuance of bonds and shares for zero companies - raising hundreds of millions to build a Bitcoin treasury.
Their goal: to reach 21,000 BTC by 2026 and possibly 100,000 BTC by 2027.
Why this approach?
It is a hedge against the depreciation of the yen and global inflation.
Bitcoin is not treated as a tradable asset but as a strategic reserve.
Their approach reflects growing institutional confidence in Bitcoin's role as a store of value.
Market Impact: Metaplanet's moves have sparked increased interest among Japanese and global investors. Their stock price rose after recent BTC buys, and they are now ranked among the top 10 public companies holding BTC worldwide.
