Metaplanet expanded its Bitcoin holdings with the acquisition of 1,009 BTC, a purchase valued at roughly $112 million. That transaction lifts the company’s total to 20,000 BTC, worth more than $2 billion at current market prices.
$2 Billion Milestone
The Tokyo-based investment firm said on September 1 that the latest buy was executed at an average cost of about $111,068 per bitcoin. Metaplanet also reported a BTC yield of 30.7% from July through September 1 — a metric the company uses to track the percentage change in the ratio of its bitcoin holdings to fully diluted common shares.
The purchase caps a busy stretch of accumulation over the past few months. In August alone, Metaplanet bought 463 BTC for approximately $53.7 million, followed by 518 BTC for about $61.4 million. It then added 775 BTC in a single transaction valued at roughly $93 million, which brought its total to 18,888 BTC before the most recent 1,009 BTC acquisition.
Metaplanet reached the 20,000 BTC level in under three months after surpassing the 10,000 BTC milestone earlier this year. The company has increased its year-end target from 10,000 BTC to 30,000 BTC and launched a substantial capital-raising effort to support that goal. Through international share offerings it has raised $837 million, most of which the firm says will be earmarked for additional bitcoin purchases in September and October.
Following the September 1 announcement, Metaplanet officially became the sixth-largest public company by bitcoin treasury, overtaking Riot Platforms and trailing larger holders such as MicroStrategy and Marathon Digital.
Market Reaction
Despite the milestone, Google Finance data showed Metaplanet’s stock down about 4.5% after the announcement. The share price remains substantially higher year-to-date, up roughly 135%.
Metaplanet will hold a shareholder meeting in Tokyo on Monday to vote on new fundraising measures. The agenda includes approval of additional financing tools, such as preferred stock issuances, which the company says could raise billions for further bitcoin buys.
A Bloomberg report also noted that Eric Trump, who joined Metaplanet’s board as a strategic adviser in March 2025, was expected to attend the meeting in person. The company has described him as a “leading voice and advocate of digital asset adoption worldwide.
