Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has added more Bitcoin to its portfolio, bringing its total holdings past 3,000 BTC.

Mar 13, 2025 at 11:00 am

The company recently acquired 162 BTC at an average price of ¥12.39 million ($83635) per Bitcoin.

Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has added more Bitcoin to its portfolio, bringing its total holdings past 3,000 BTC.

Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has boosted its Bitcoin portfolio once again, pushing its total holdings past the 3,000 BTC mark.

As disclosed on Monday, Metaplanet bought an additional 162 BTC at an average price of ¥12.39 million ($83,635) for the flagship crypto. This brings the company’s total Bitcoin holdings to 3,050 BTC, currently valued at nearly $250 million.

Earlier this year, the company set an ambitious target to amass 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025. Further ahead, it aims to hold 21,000 BTC by the end of 2026. If successful, this would place the company among the largest corporate Bitcoin holders globally.

“*Metaplanet Purchases Additional 162 $BTC*,” the company announced via Twitter.

Adopting the Bitcoin Standard in April 2024 has seen fast rise in market performance and shareholder interest. Now on board are more than 50,000 stockholders; and its market capitalization has surged by about 7,000% in less than a year.

Unprecedented Bitcoin Yield

Holding Bitcoin has already paid off for Metaplanet. The company’s disclosure of a 310% BTC Yield in the fourth quarter of 2024 highlights the effectiveness of its strategy. It hopes to gain even more from possible price rises by continuing to buy Bitcoin in big quantities.

The approach of Metaplanet is in line with that of other companies, such as Strategy, which has been investing in Bitcoin since 2014. As of February 24, 2025, Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings amounted to 499,096 Bitcoins.

However, the pace at which Metaplanet is adding to its Bitcoin reserves sets it apart from many other investment firms in Japan. As the company continues its buying streak, its position in the global Bitcoin space will only become stronger.
