Metaplanet Inc., a publicly listed Japanese firm, has announced it has added 319 more Bitcoin to its balance sheet as part of its treasury strategy. The purchase was made at an average price of 11.8 million yen per BTC, totaling 3.78 billion yen. This brings Metaplanet’s total Bitcoin stash to 4,525 BTC, bought at an average price of 12.8 million yen per BTC, worth approximately 58.1 billion yen in total. Despite the crypto downturn, Metaplanet’s stock has shown steady performance this year, with a 0.57% gain. With each new acquisition, Metaplanet strengthens its position in the crypto space, signaling strong confidence in BTC’s future value.
The company made it happen with a special metric called BTC Yield to measure the success of its Bitcoin accumulation strategy. This yield shows how much more Bitcoin they hold compared to their shares in circulation. From January to March 2025, their BTC Yield was a solid 95.6%, and between April 1 to April 14, it was 6.5%, showing continued growth despite a shorter period.
How They’re Funding the Buying Spree
Metaplanet has been funding its massive Bitcoin purchases by teaming up with EVO FUND, a major investor. Instead of taking regular loans that require interest payments, the company has been issuing zero-coupon bonds, which don’t need interest to be paid. Along with that, EVO FUND gets the right to buy Metaplanet shares at the market price.
Moreover, when they buy those shares, Metaplanet receives cash. That cash is then used to either repay the bonds or buy more Bitcoin. Between January and March 2025, Metaplanet rolled out several rounds of these bonds worth 2 to 4 billion yen each, all to support its ongoing Bitcoin investment strategy.
Aggressive Expansion With Minimal Dilution
Despite issuing millions of shares, Metaplanet claims it’s carefully managing dilution, which means shareholders aren’t losing too much ownership percentage in the company. The company uses a calculation of “Bitcoin per fully diluted share” to show that each share is becoming more valuable in terms of Bitcoin.
The Bigger Picture
Metaplanet is following the playbook of U.S.-based MicroStrategy, aggressively turning its treasury into a Bitcoin reserve. By mixing creative finance and strategic share issuance, it’s doubling down on Bitcoin as a long-term asset. With Japan’s growing crypto interest, Metaplanet is positioning itself as a corporate BTC pioneer in Asia.
