Japanese Bitcoin treasury firm Metaplanet has deepened its crypto bet with its biggest purchase yet after adding 5,419 BTC for roughly $632.5 million at an average price of $116,724.<\/p>\n
The move has boosted the company\u2019s total holdings to 25,555 BTC, which were accumulated for about $2.71 billion at an average cost of $106,065 per BTC, according to CEO Simon Gerovich.<\/p>\n
Metaplanet\u2019s aggressive accumulation strategy has delivered<\/a> a whopping 395.1% year-to-date BTC yield in 2025. With this purchase, the Tokyo-listed firm now ranks as the fifth-largest public corporate BTC holder, overtaking Bullish and trailing only Michael Saylor\u2019s Strategy, Marathon Digital, XXI, and Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company, according to the data compiled<\/a> by Bitcoin Treasuries.<\/p>\n Metaplanet has intensified<\/a> its Bitcoin acquisition strategy after boosting its year-end target from 10,000 to 30,000 BTC. To support this goal, the company raised $837 million via international share offerings, of which the bulk of the funds were allocated for purchases scheduled in September and October.<\/p>\n Building on this momentum, the firm disclosed plans to generate $1.4 billion through the issuance of 385 million new shares, earmarked entirely for additional BTC acquisitions.<\/p>\n Last week, the company also announced<\/a> the launch of Metaplanet Income Corp., a Miami-based US subsidiary with an initial capital of $15 million. The subsidiary is designed to focus on Bitcoin income generation and derivatives trading, thereby creating a clear separation from Metaplanet\u2019s core BTC holdings. Leadership responsibilities will be shared between CEO Gerovich, Dylan LeClair, and Darren Winia.<\/p>\n According to the firm, this organizational structure will allow revenue-generating activities to operate efficiently while having minimal impact on consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31.<\/p>\n The latest announcement comes as Bitcoin rattled markets heading into the final week of September and retreated to $112,000. The sharp pullback triggered more than $1 billion in liquidations of crypto long positions, as it marked the largest single liquidation event of 2025 to date.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Metaplanet\u2019s stock fell 3.12% to $3.98 during Monday\u2019s session in Japan, according to the Yahoo Finance data. The stock showed significant intraday volatility. Despite this, it remains up almost 70% year-to-date.<\/p>\n The post 5,419 BTC Acquisition Pushes Metaplanet\u2019s Holdings to $2.71 Billion Portfolio Value<\/a> appeared first on CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Japanese Bitcoin treasury firm Metaplanet has deepened its crypto bet with its biggest purchase yet after adding 5,419 BTC for roughly $632.5 million at an average price of $116,724.
