Japan’s Metaplanet said on Monday it has purchased additional 1,088 bitcoin BTC to bring its total holdings to over 8,888 BTC, now worth over $930 million.

The latest acquisition cost the company 16.885 billion Japanese yen ($117.5 million), with an average purchase price of approximately 15.5 million yen ($108,051) per bitcoin, per a disclosure.

The firm has now added 7,126 BTC 2025 so far, pacing to its year-end target of 10,000 BTC. Its latest move follows the company’s issuance of $50 million in zero-interest bonds last week, providing additional capital for BTC purchases without diluting existing equity.

Metaplanet reported a BTC Yield of 66.3% for year-to-date, BTC Gain, expressed in Bitcoin terms, rose to 2,684 BTC, while BTC ten Gain translated to approximately 40.5 billion yen.

BTC was hovering over $105,000 in Asian hours Monday, little changed over the past 24 hours.
