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.
Metaplanet’s aggressive bitcoin accumulation strategy, which began with its official adoption of a Bitcoin treasury policy in April 2024, has propelled the firm to the top spot among corporate BTC holders in Asia and the top ten globally.
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.
