Metaplanet has further cemented its status as a major Bitcoin holder, adding 1,088 BTC ($117.5 million) to its treasury. With 8,888 BTC (~$930 million), the Japanese firm is now just 1,112 BTC shy of its 10,000 BTC goal.
The purchase, funded partly by last week’s $50 million bond sale, continues Metaplanet’s aggressive 2025 accumulation (7,126 BTC YTD). Since adopting a Bitcoin-focused strategy in April 2024, it has outpaced regional peers to become Asia’s largest corporate holder.
CEO Simon Gerovich acknowledges MicroStrategy’s influence, particularly Michael Saylor’s advocacy for Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset.
