Despite 11,111 BTC Milestone, Metaplanet Stock Faces Sudden Jolt

Bitcoin's latest corporate adoptee hits a symbolic treasury threshold—just as markets deliver a reality check.

When numbers lie: The 11,111 BTC headline looks pristine, but traders aren't buying the narrative.

Wall Street shrugs: Another 'Bitcoin strategic reserve' play meets skeptical price action. Somewhere, a hedge fund manager sips champagne.

TLDR

  • Metaplanet purchased 1,111 Bitcoins on June 23, 2025, for approximately $118.2 million.
  • The company now holds a total of 11,111 Bitcoins, making it the eighth-largest corporate Bitcoin holder.
  • Metaplanet’s Bitcoin investment has reached over $1.07 billion with an average purchase price of $95,869 per BTC.
  • Despite the large Bitcoin acquisition, Metaplanet stock declined by 4% due to escalating geopolitical tensions.
  • The stock closed at 1712 JPY after a weekend marked by the Iran-Israel conflict and U.S. strikes in the region.

Metaplanet continued its aggressive Bitcoin strategy with a fresh addition of 1,111 BTC on June 23, 2025. The total holdings now stand at 11,111 BTC, cementing its position as the eighth-largest corporate Bitcoin holder. However, Metaplanet stock dropped 4% amid rising global tensions linked to the Iran-Israel conflict.

Metaplanet Crosses 11,000 BTC After Latest Purchase

The company acquired 1,111 Bitcoins for approximately $118.2 million after completing the 20th to 22nd Stock Acquisition Rights. This raised its aggregate holdings to 11,111 BTC, surpassing Hut8 in corporate rankings. The firm’s year-to-date yield now reaches 306.7% for bitcoin assets alone.

With the average acquisition price of $95,869 per BTC, the total investment value exceeds $1.07 billion. Metaplanet began 2025 with just over 1,000 BTC but rapidly expanded holdings within six months. The company hit the 10,000 BTC milestone last week before surpassing it on Monday.

The stock acquisition rights were executed after receiving JPY 558.7 million in funding from EVO FUND. The Japanese firm utilized these proceeds to accumulate more Bitcoin directly from the open market. Metaplanet stock has continued attracting institutional interest despite short-term volatility.

Metaplanet Stock Falls as Conflict Escalates

Bitcoin prices briefly dipped below $100,000 on Sunday as tensions escalated in the Middle East. The crash followed U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, intensifying fears across global markets. However, Bitcoin rebounded to above $101,000 by Monday’s Asian session.

The Metaplanet stock fell 4% on June 23, closing at 1712 JPY during Tokyo trading hours. Selling pressure increased as geopolitical risks affected broader investor sentiment across Asian and crypto-focused equities. Yet, Metaplanet stock has remained at nearly 400% since the start of 2025.

The conflict led to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, disrupting global oil supply routes and triggering a market-wide risk-off environment. This added to volatility in both crypto and equity markets, putting pressure on high-growth assets. Metaplanet stock, though fundamentally strong, reacted sharply to these developments.

Metaplanet Plans Massive Crypto Investment Drive

Metaplanet aims to acquire 210,000 BTC by 2027, targeting 1% of Bitcoin’s total supply through strategic funding. The firm has already announced a $5.4 billion fundraising initiative to support continued BTC accumulation. This long-term outlook continues to shape its capital allocation strategy.

Institutional investors such as Citigroup and Capital Group recently increased exposure to Metaplanet stock. Despite Monday’s decline, the stock remains a key vehicle for indirect Bitcoin exposure in traditional markets. The company’s consistent buying strategy signals a firm conviction in Bitcoin’s long-term value.
