Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has purchased 330 more Bitcoin. The firm disclosed the acquisition on April 21. This brings its total holdings to 4,855 BTC. The company spent ¥4.02 billion ($26 million) on the latest purchase.
Each Bitcoin was acquired at an average cost of ¥12.18 million ($85,605). With this move, the company continues to increase its Bitcoin exposure. Its total Bitcoin portfolio is now valued at around ¥62.17 billion ($414 million).
Average Cost Remains Below Market Rate
Metaplanet’s average Bitcoin purchase price now stands at ¥12.8 million ($85,386) per BTC. This remains slightly below the current market price. The strategy helps the firm maintain a favorable average cost basis. The company tracks its performance using a metric called “BTC Yield.”
BTC Yield Highlights Strategic Returns
BTC Yield measures Bitcoin per fully diluted share. For the current quarter, it stands at 12.1%. In the previous three quarters, it hit 41.7%, 309.8%, and 95.6%. The company uses this metric to assess its long-term accumulation strategy.
Metaplanet has relied on capital markets to fund its Bitcoin strategy. It has used zero-coupon bonds and stock acquisition rights. As of April 2025, it has completed over 40% of its “210 Million Plan.” The company has already raised more than ¥35 billion ($226 million).
On April 16, it secured another $10 million through a zero-interest bond. These moves reflect its continued focus on funding Bitcoin acquisitions through debt and equity tools.
Revenue Projections Driven by Bitcoin
Metaplanet expects to generate ¥3 billion ($27.5 million) from its Bitcoin program in 2025. This is part of a broader target of ¥3.4 billion ($31.3 million) in total revenue. The firm appears confident in its revenue outlook.
Metaplanet’s stock has surged 1,086% in the past year. This reflects investor confidence in the company’s Bitcoin-first strategy. Market performance has closely followed its aggressive Bitcoin acquisition timeline.
MicroStrategy Comparison Emerges
The firm’s actions have drawn comparisons to MicroStrategy. Though Metaplanet holds less BTC, both companies appear in the Bitwise OWNB fund. This fund tracks firms with over 1,000 BTC. Metaplanet continues to follow a dollar-cost averaging strategy.
Metaplanet recently appointed Eric Trump to its Strategic Board of Advisors. The move follows a $10 million purchase and hints at a larger strategy. The company’s recent activities have come during a Bitcoin price surge.
Bitcoin rose to over $87,300 today amid global uncertainty. The rally coincided with gold reaching a new all-time high. Bitcoin appears to be decoupling from traditional markets.
