Metaplanet Acquires 5,419 BTC, Re-Enters Top 5 Bitcoin Holders List Surpassing Bullish

Corporate treasury strategy just got a crypto-powered jolt.

Metaplanet isn't just dipping toes—it's diving deep back into Bitcoin, reclaiming a heavyweight position with a single bold move.

From sidelines to spotlight

Grabbing 5,419 BTC in one sweep isn't casual investing. It’s a statement. While traditional finance still debates digital gold, forward-thinking firms are stacking—literally.

Climbing the ranks

This purchase didn’t just add to Metaplanet’s coffers—it shoved them past Bullish into an elite club. Top five. Not bad for an asset some still call 'niche'.

Timing or conviction?

No one buys billions in BTC by accident. This screams strategic allocation—not impulsive speculation. Maybe they know something the bond market doesn’t.

Another public company loading up on Bitcoin while Wall Street still toys with ETFs. Maybe they’ve read the macro tea leaves—or just prefer real assets over printed promises.

Aggressive BTC Accumulation Meets Metaplanet’s Goals

Metaplanet’s Bitcoin strategy is both aggressive and transparent. As of mid-April 2025, the corporate holder’s total Bitcoin holdings were only 4,525 BTC, entering the world’s top ten public Bitcoin-holding companies.

It initially announced to accumulate 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025, which Metaplanet already reached on June 16. Further, the Tokyo firm said it WOULD acquire 21,000 BTC by 2026, but later updated its treasury strategy.

Often referred as the ‘Asian Strategy,’ Metaplanet launched its sweeping “555 Million Plan,” aiming to raise $5.4 billion to buy 210,000 BTC by 2027.

Early this month, the company finalized $1.4 billion share sale by issuing 385 million new shares, for additional BTC purchases.

Metaplanet Stock Drops 1.64%, BTC Slips Below $115K

Metaplanet’s stock plunged 1.64% on Monday in Japan, per Google Finance data. The stock is down over 28% in the past month, and remains 66.71% up year-to-date.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin fell 0.94% over the past 24 hours to $114,491, underperforming the broader crypto market. The largest crypto is trading at $114,503 at press time. The dip aligns with technical resistance, whale activity, and regulatory developments.
