A stampede into Bitcoin
Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has made headlines once again by acquiring 2,205 BTC for approximately $240.8 million. This aggressive accumulation brings its total Bitcoin holdings to 15,555 BTC, now valued at $1.69 billion, positioning the company among the largest corporate holders of Bitcoin globally.
This isn’t Metaplanet’s first major move into Bitcoin. The company has been steadily building its Bitcoin treasury over the past few months, previously buying 555 BTC in May and 1,005 BTC in June. With this continued buying strategy, Metaplanet signals strong confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term value and its place in corporate finance.
Fueling the purchases with bonds
To fund these large-scale Bitcoin acquisitions, Metaplanet has utilized innovative financing strategies. One key approach has been issuing zero-coupon bonds—a type of debt that doesn’t pay interest and is sold at a discount. By doing so, the firm raises capital without the burden of interest payments, allowing them to deploy the full amount into Bitcoin investments.
This financing method enables Metaplanet to expand its Bitcoin holdings without immediate cash outflows, and with minimal shareholder dilution, making it a strategic tool for long-term asset accumulation.
The 210,000 BTC ambition
With this latest purchase, Metaplanet inches closer to its ambitious goal of acquiring 210,000 BTC by 2027. The company has outlined a strategic plan to continue leveraging financial markets to steadily build one of the world’s largest Bitcoin treasuries.
Surpassing Tesla and other big names, Metaplanet is not only reshaping its own financial profile but also setting a bold example for other corporations considering Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset.
