Notably, the recent purchase has increased the firm’s Bitcoin stash to 5000 BTC. With this milestone, the investment company has achieved the halfway mark in its goal to hold 10,000 bitcoins by the end of 2025.

Metaplanet Holds 5000 BTC

According to the filing, the company acquired an additional 145 BTC for $13.6 million, at an average price of $93,327 per coin. The latest purchase comes three days after the Japanese firm bought 330 BTC, valued at approximately $28.2 million.

As of April 21, 2025, Metaplanet’s total Bitcoin holdings amount to 5000 BTC, acquired for approximately 428.1 million at an average price of $85,621 per bitcoin. This accumulation strategy has yielded impressive results, with the company reporting a Bitcoin yield of 121.1% year-to-date (YTD) in 2025.

“This is a big step forward in our aim to become one of the world’s leading Bitcoin holding companies. We will lead the global bitcoin race from Japan,” CEO Simon Gerovich said on X.

Consistent Moves Towards BTC Goal

Since this month, Metaplanet has purchased over 1,600 BTC across five separate transactions. The buying spree has added nearly $153 million worth of Bitcoin to its treasury, solidifying its position as a prominent player in the Bitcoin investment landscape. Moreover, the consistent acquisition builds on its goal to reach 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025 and 21,000 BTC by 2026.

Since adopting Bitcoin as its strategic treasury reserve last year, Metaplanet has been increasing its exposure to the leading cryptocurrency relentlessly. Following the footsteps of Michael Saylor’s tech firm, Strategy, the Japanese firm finances its bitcoin accumulation through a combination of innovative funding methods. One of these methods is the issuance of a series of ordinary bonds to the debt and financing solutions provider EVO Fund.

At press time, Bitcoin is trading at $92,155, reflecting a 2.3% decline for the day but an 8.8% increase over the past week.
