Japanese investment firm Metaplanet recently added 330 BTC to its Bitcoin holdings, bringing its total holdings closer to 5,000 Bitcoin. This strategic decision is part of a comprehensive plan to hold a total of 10,000 Bitcoin by the end of 2025.
Metaplanet, a leading investment firm in Asia, has increased its Bitcoin holdings by 330 BTC, bringing its total holdings to 4,855 Bitcoin. This latest acquisition was made at an average price of 12.18 million yen per Bitcoin, equivalent to approximately $85,605. The company’s Bitcoin holdings are now valued at 62.17 billion yen, equivalent to approximately $414 million.
Metaplanet’s Bitcoin-focused strategy is supported by various capital market activities, including the issuance of zero-coupon bonds and share acquisition rights. By April 2025, the company has completed over 40% of its “210 Million Plan,” a financing initiative involving the issuance of share rights at no discount to the EVO FUND.
The proceeds, which so far amount to over 35 billion yen, have been used to purchase Bitcoin. Recently, on April 16, the company raised another $10 million through the issuance of interest-free bonds, which will also be used to purchase Bitcoin.
Metaplanet aims to own a total of 10,000 Bitcoin by the end of 2025 and 21,000 Bitcoin by 2026, representing approximately 1% of the total Bitcoin supply. This ambitious target underscores the company’s confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term value appreciation.
To track the performance of its Bitcoin investments, Metaplanet uses a metric called BTC Yield, which measures how much Bitcoin is held per fully diluted share. In the current quarter, the company’s Bitcoin yield is 12.1%, while it was even higher in the three previous quarters: 41.7% in the third quarter of 2024, 309.8% in the fourth quarter, and 95.6% in the first quarter of 2025.
