Tokyo-based investment firm Metaplanet just made its biggest crypto move yet—a $15 million Bitcoin purchase that puts it on track to hold 10,000 BTC by next year. Because nothing says ’trust the system’ like hedging against fiat with a volatile digital asset.

The aggressive accumulation strategy mirrors early-stage corporate Bitcoin adopters like MicroStrategy, betting big on crypto as a treasury reserve. Will this trigger a wave of Japanese firms flipping yen for Satoshis? Or just another case of institutional FOMO?

One thing’s clear: while traditional finance still debates Bitcoin’s merit, Metaplanet’s balance sheet is now permanently correlated with memes, halvings, and Elon Musk tweets. Welcome to the new era of corporate risk management.

  • Metaplanet has raised $15M in bonds for Bitcoin acquisitions.
  • Company targets 10,000 BTC by 2025 with aggressive acquisitions.
  • Metaplanet becomes Asia’s largest corporate Bitcoin holder

Metaplanet Inc. has initiated a bond sale of $15 million to fund additional Bitcoin purchases. The Japanese investment company intends to purchase 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025 especially with the recent bond sale expected to accelerate the ambitious Bitcoin acquisitions. Metaplanet recently acquired 1,241 BTC to increase its total Bitcoin holdings to 6,796 BTC, which marks a major milestone in its aggressive Bitcoin accumulation plan.

The bonds, which offer 0% interest and mature on November 12, are intended to raise funds to buy more Bitcoin. At the current market prices, Metaplanet could purchase about 147 BTC with the entire $15 million raised. This purchase coincides with the volatility of bitcoin prices,which saw its price drop from its $105,000 peak.

Corporate Bitcoin Acquisition Spree

Metaplanet’s focus on Bitcoin as a Core treasury asset is part of a wider global trend in 2025. Corporates and businesses continue to make substantial Bitcoin purchases which have exceeded government purchases and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). These businesses include Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) which recently purchased 13,390 BTC to increase its stash to more than 568,000 BTC and make it the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin.

Metaplanet’s Bitcoin accumulation strategy demonstrates its confidence in the long-term potential of Bitcoin despite the current volatility in the price of Bitcoin .

The company’s Bitcoin acquisition plan reflects the increased institutional interest in Bitcoin. Metaplanet seeks to maximize the potential of Bitcoin as an asset class to create value to its shareholders.

Metaplanet’s Bitcoin Portfolio Massive Q1 Yields

The firm’s Bitcoin portfolio has already produced impressive results, with a 95.6% BTC yield in Q1 2025. The company generated a yield of 38% in Q2 which positions as a top performer in the corporate Bitcoin acquisition arena. Moreover, the recent increase in its stock price validates its Bitcoin purchases.

Metaplanet continues to explore other means to finance its Bitcoin purchases besides bond issuance. The company has offered stock acquisition rights to facilitate its growth.

Metaplanet’s latest acquisition makes it the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin in Asia. This marks a shift in Japan’s conservative financial landscape. Experts predict that Metaplanet’s MOVE could lead to increased institutional adoption of Bitcoin.
