By confirming that it currently has 20,000 BTC in its corporate treasury, Metaplanet has achieved a new milestone in its Bitcoin accumulation strategy.
According to CoinGape, the most recent acquisition brought the overall investment close to $2 billion by adding 1,009 Bitcoin at an average price of almost $102,700 each.
This comes after the company made a lesser purchase of 103 BTC earlier this month at a higher average cost of $113,491, demonstrating its opportunistic strategy to purchasing when the market declines. The Japanese company has become one of the world’s most aggressive Bitcoin treasuries, joining firms like Strategy, which holds more than 632,000 BTC. Reaching 20,000 BTC enhances Metaplanet’s standing as a significant participant among corporate owners. The plan, according to analysts, is a long-term wager on Bitcoin as a means of boosting business value as well as a hedge against Japan’s weakening yen.
Stock market reaction to ongoing purchases
The stock of Metaplanet has experienced significant volatility in spite of these audacious actions. Shares dropped 4% to 844 yen after the most recent statement, continuing a weekly decrease of about 7%. According to Bloomberg, the stock has dropped by over half since mid-June after rising by more than 400% earlier in 2025. The company’s capacity to maintain its funding strategy, which mostly depends on equity issuance, is called into question by this abrupt downturn.
Metaplanet announced intentions to raise $884 million through an international share offering and may possibly issue preferred stock, subject to shareholder approval, in order to stabilize its outlook. According to analysts, the company’s fundamental plan to amass a sizable Bitcoin reserve is still in place, even though the stock’s drop is a reflection of market concern. Market players are keeping a careful eye on whether share dilution affects the appetite of long-term investors.
Strategic vision and political connections
Beyond merely amassing treasury, Metaplanet aims to acquire over 210,000 BTC by 2027, which would account for more than 1% of the whole Bitcoin supply. Metaplanet is still investigating creative financing strategies to support this objective, such as raising shares and generating revenue from covered call options on its Bitcoin holdings. By giving Eric Trump 3.3 million shares through stock acquisition rights, the company further strengthened its international financial relationships and demonstrated how politics and business Bitcoin adoption are intertwined.
In addition to increasing awareness, this puts Metaplanet’s in a unique position at the nexus of global influence and financial strategy. The business is still dedicated to growing its treasury in spite of the short-term volatility in both its stock and Bitcoin markets. Its long-term belief in Bitcoin as a reserve asset, according to observers, will maintain Metaplanet at the forefront of global conversations over corporate cryptocurrency adoption.
We recently reported that Metaplanet, a well-known Japanese investment company, has authorized a proposal to generate 180.3 billion yen ($1.2 billion) by issuing shares abroad, of which $835 million will be used to buy Bitcoin.
