Japanese Firm Metaplanet Pumps Up Bitcoin Stash to 5,000 BTC with ¥1.9 Billion Splash!

Tokyo's Metaplanet Inc. Goes Big on Bitcoin, Aiming for the Stars

Holy crypto, Batman! Tokyo's very own Metaplanet Inc. just flexed its muscles in the Bitcoin arena, snagging another 145 BTC and cranking its total to a whopping 5,000 BTC! That's right, folks, these guys are on a mission with their Bitcoin Treasury Operations, and they're not messing around. This latest scoop comes straight from a Thursday regulatory filing, and it's got everyone buzzing.

So, how much did they drop on this latest Bitcoin haul? A cool ¥1.9 billion, which translates to about $13.4 million. And get this—the average price they paid for all their Bitcoin now sits at ¥12.8 million per coin, or roughly $89,000. That's some serious dough!

And guess what? Metaplanet's CEO, the one and only Simon Gerovich, hit up X to drop some serious knowledge. He's stoked because this latest buy-in means they've hit the halfway mark towards their goal of 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025. Talk about setting the pace!

But that's not all—Metaplanet's BTC Yield has been skyrocketing lately, hitting a sweet 13.0% as of April 24. These guys are on fire! Plus, they've fully exercised their 14th Series Stock Acquisition Rights and even threw in a partial early redemption of their 11th Series Bonds. They're playing the game like pros.

Remember when Metaplanet scooped up 696 BTC in Q1 through their Bitcoin Income Generation biz? Yeah, that's the program where they're slinging cash-secured Bitcoin put options. It's like they're playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers.

And here's the cherry on top—Metaplanet made this latest Bitcoin buy right after raking in ¥2 billion from their 10th Series of Ordinary Bonds, all of which went straight to EVO FUND for even more Bitcoin action. Since they started stacking sats, their stock has gone bananas, surging over 3,000%. And they're not stopping there—these crypto cowboys are gunning for a total of 21,000 BTC by the end of 2026. Buckle up, folks, because Metaplanet is taking us on a wild ride!
