As of January 1, 2025, Metaplanet announced a substantial Bitcoin purchase. The firm acquired an additional 4,279 BTC at an average price of ¥16,325,148 per Bitcoin, which translates to approximately $104,638 per Bitcoin.

Metaplanet's consistent expansion of its Bitcoin treasury throughout 2025 underscores its strong and aggressive long-term conviction in Bitcoin.

Data from the firm highlights a robust accumulation in Q2 2025, contributing approximately 129.4% to its reserve growth. With 35,102 BTC in its reserves, Metaplanet firmly establishes its position among the largest and fastest-growing corporate Bitcoin treasury firms globally.
