Metaplanet Aims to Gobble Up 1% of All Bitcoin by 2027—Can They Pull It Off?
Bitcoin's supply squeeze just got a new player. Metaplanet—a name you'd expect to find in a sci-fi IPO—just declared war on scarcity with an audacious plan: cornering 1% of all BTC in circulation by 2027.
The 21 million club gets a gatecrasher
With only 21 million BTC ever to exist, snagging 210,000 coins isn't just ambitious—it's a power move that'd make even MicroStrategy blush. The question isn't whether they'll moon—it's whether they'll need to bankrupt a small nation to do it.
Wall Street's watching—and laughing
Traditional finance wonks are already sharpening their 'told-you-so' knives. Because nothing says 'sound monetary policy' like betting the farm on an asset that once crashed because Elon Musk tweeted a meme.
Metaplanet, a prominent investment and consulting platform in Japan, has recently announced an aggressive Bitcoin ($BTC) acquisition plan. As per Simon Gerovich, the CEO of Metaplanet, the company has a target of claiming up to 1% of the cumulative Bitcoin supply by the year 2027. As Simon Gerovich detailed in a recent X thread, the platform’s present Bitcoin ($BTC) holdings are 18,113 $BTC (nearly $2.1B) while it is aggressively moving toward its target. This robust approach has reportedly revolutionized the company’s balance sheet, raising market cap from $14M, as of April, to the present multibillion-dollar standing.

Metaplanet’s CEO has asserted that the company is actively moving toward its target of 1% of the total Bitcoin supply. In this respect, the executive has also mentioned that the firm’s plan is to achieve this milestone as soon as the year 2027. Particularly, until this year’s end, the platform expects to grow its Bitcoin holdings to 30,000 $BTC, denoting 60.4% spike towards the 210,000 $BTC target.
Following that, during the year 2026, it anticipates a sharp acceleration to 100,000 $BTC, bringing approximately 18.1% nearer to the goal. Ultimately, by 2027, the firm aims to raise the Bitcoin holdings thereof to 210,000 $BTC, equaling the overall Bitcoin supply’s 1%. Additionally, the CEO also mentioned that Metaplanet is a profitable platform, with positive cash FLOW and the ability to direct up to 100% of the collected funds toward $BTC acquisition.
Company’s Shareholder Base Surges by 40x over Twelve Years
Hence, according to Simon Gerovich, Metaplanet is steadily accumulating without diluting or overextending shareholder value. Over the past twelve months, the firm’s strategy has also massively bolstered the shareholder base by 40x. Simultaneously, the platform is also among the prominent traded stocks in the Japanese market. Overall, this aggressive Bitcoin accumulation and 1% supply target cement Metaplant’s positioning as a leading player.
