30-6-2025 – Japanese conglomerate Metaplanet has catapulted into the elite circle of the world’s top five Bitcoin holders. The firm’s relentless acquisition strategy saw it snap up an additional 1,005 BTC on June 30, 2025, at an average price of $107,601 per Bitcoin, swelling its total reserves to an impressive 13,350 BTC.
Metaplanet’s stock rallies on bold crypto strategy
This latest purchase, valued at approximately $108.1 million, underscores Metaplanet’s unwavering commitment to amassing digital assets, with its cumulative Bitcoin portfolio now standing at a staggering $1.31 billion, acquired at an average cost of $97,832 per coin. The company’s audacious moves have not gone unnoticed in financial markets. Metaplanet’s stock price surged by 10% to 1,633 JPY on the day of the announcement, rebounding robustly from a recent dip below 1,500 JPY. This rally follows a period of market turbulence, where the stock faced downward pressure after hitting a high of 1,900 JPY.
Overtakes Tesla, CleanSpark, galaxy digital in BTC holdings
Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, Metaplanet’s US-listed shares (MTPLF) have been a standout performer on Wall Street, with trading volumes approaching one million, signalling strong investor confidence in the firm’s crypto-centric strategy. Metaplanet’s ascent in the Bitcoin hierarchy has seen it eclipse prominent players such as Tesla, CleanSpark, and Galaxy Digital, a feat driven by an aggressive acquisition spree. Over the past three months alone, the company has secured 10,000 BTC, a milestone celebrated by CEO Simon Gerovich.
“Three months ago, we stood before our shareholders with 3,350 BTC in our treasury,” Gerovich remarked. “Today, we’ve quadrupled that figure to 13,350 BTC, and we’re only just beginning.”
The firm has set its sights on an ambitious target of 30,000 BTC by the end of 2025, with a longer-term vision—dubbed the “555 Million Plan”—to secure 1% of Bitcoin’s total supply, or 210,000 BTC, by 2027. To fuel this crypto juggernaut, Metaplanet has tapped into innovative financing mechanisms.
The company recently issued its 19th Series of Ordinary Bonds, raising nearly $208 million through zero-coupon, unsecured instruments fully subscribed by EVO FUND. The proceeds are earmarked for repurchasing 1.75 billion JPY in previously issued bonds, with the surplus allocated to further Bitcoin acquisitions. Additionally, Metaplanet’s US subsidiary has secured a colossal $5 billion capital allocation to bolster its cryptocurrency purchases, reinforcing the firm’s position as a formidable force in the global Bitcoin market.
As Metaplanet continues to reshape the landscape of corporate Bitcoin adoption, its strategic pivot towards digital assets signals a broader shift in how public companies perceive value in the modern financial era. With its stock price recovering and its Bitcoin treasury expanding, the Japanese giant is not merely riding the crypto wave—it is steering it.
