With 15,555 BTC, Metaplanet has now surpassed Cleanspark Inc. and Galaxy Digital to become the fifth-largest publicly listed Bitcoin holder. The company plans to grow its holdings to 30,000 BTC by the end of the year and aims<\/a> for 210,000 BTC by 2027, which would put its ownership of Bitcoin at 1% of the king cryptocurrency\u2019s total supply.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Europe\u2019s first Bitcoin treasury company also said it has secured<\/a> 116 BTC for\u00a0 $12.6 million on July 7.
