Tokyo-based investment firm, Metaplanet Inc., has announced the acquisition of an additional 1,088 BTC as part of its ongoing Bitcoin Treasury Operations.<\/p>\n

The company disclosed that the average purchase price for this latest batch was 15.5 million yen per Bitcoin, bringing the total transaction value to approximately 16.88 billion yen, worth $117.5 million.<\/p>\n

Metaplanet Ramps Up Bitcoin Treasury Play<\/h2>\n

In its latest update<\/a>, the company stated that its overall average purchase price now stands at 13.75 million yen per Bitcoin, with the total aggregated amount spent reaching 122.269 billion yen. Following this purchase, Metaplanet\u2019s total holdings have increased to 8,888 BTC.\u00a0This move continues Metaplanet\u2019s strategy of strengthening its position in digital assets.<\/p>\n

Inspired by the business intelligence firm, Strategy\u2019s corporate Bitcoin playbook, and Michael Saylor\u2019s leadership, Metaplanet adopted its BTC treasury strategy in April 2024.<\/p>\n

Since then, it has rapidly built one of the largest BTC holdings. It now leads in Asia and is the tenth-largest public company globally that owns Bitcoin. The Japanese firm\u2019s most recent acquisition brings it closer to its ambitious 10,000 BTC target for 2025.<\/p>\n

Metaplanet shares rose 9.75% on the Tokyo Stock Exchange today, closing at 1,171 yen at 3:30 PM JST. According to Yahoo Finance data<\/a>, the stock is up over 236% year-to-date.<\/p>\n

$21M Bond Deal<\/h2>\n

Last month, Metaplanet announced<\/a> the issuance of $21 million in zero-coupon bonds to Evo Fund, after closing a separate $50 million funding round. Labeled the 17th series, these bonds have a face value of $525,000 each and mature on November 28, 2025.<\/p>\n

Because they bear no interest, Metaplanet avoids incurring any borrowing costs. The issuance terms allow Evo Fund to redeem the bonds early, either entirely or in increments of $525,000, by providing five days\u2019 notice.<\/p>\n

These early redemptions may also coincide with subsequent funding activities involving the same investor. As unsecured instruments with no guarantees or third-party administrators, the bonds comply with Japan\u2019s corporate legal framework. Payment procedures will be managed at the company\u2019s Tokyo office. The financing move is in line with Metaplanet\u2019s broader goal of accumulating Bitcoin without diluting shareholder equity.<\/p>\n
