Tokyo-based Metaplanet Inc., a publicly listed company in Japan, has deepened its commitment to bitcoin (BTC) with a fresh acquisition of 518 BTC. The purchase, valued at approximately $61.4 million, was executed at an average price of about $118,519 per coin.

Following its latest purchase, the company’s total Bitcoin reserves have now reached 18,113 BTC. The cumulative investment in these holdings stands at around $1.85 billion, with an average purchase cost of roughly $101,911 per coin.

Metaplanet Cements Role as Top Player

The move further strengthens the firm’s position as one of the most aggressive corporate BTC accumulators in Asia. Metaplanet’s strategy echoes that of U.S.-based Strategy, which has also made Bitcoin a core part of its corporate treasury model.

This latest buy underscores the company’s long-term confidence in the asset, even as the price hovers near historic highs. As of the time of writing, BTC was trading at $118,474, according to data from CoinGecko.

Metaplanet’s consistent bitcoin purchases could signal growing institutional confidence in Japan’s digital asset market. It could also pave the way for other publicly traded companies in the region to follow suit.

From July 1 to August 12, 2025, the entity has achieved a BTC Yield of 26.5%. However, the company also achieved a BTC Yield of 129.4% from April 1 to June 30, which is relatively higher than its latest.
