Metaplanet's Bitcoin Blitz: Trading Volume Soars, Outpacing Toyota and Sony

Holy crypto surge, Batman! Metaplanet's stock trading volume in June nearly doubled to a whopping $11.6 billion as they turbocharged their Bitcoin treasury strategy, leaving Toyota Motor and Sony Group in the dust.

According to the Tokyo Stock Exchange, this Tokyo-based investment firm's stock trading volume hit a mind-blowing 1.87 trillion yen, or about $11.6 billion, in June 2025 alone. That's an 87% jump from the previous month's 997.6 billion yen. Talk about a meteoric rise!

Get this: Metaplanet's stock trading volume even surpassed two of Japan's corporate giants, Toyota Motor and Sony Group. In June 2025, Toyota's trading volume was a mere 1.6 trillion yen, while Sony Group's reached 1.3 trillion yen. But let's not forget the king of the hill, Advantest, with a monthly stock trading volume of 4.8 trillion yen.

Reuters Japan spilled the beans that Metaplanet's stock price has been skyrocketing since mid-June, all thanks to their aggressive Bitcoin treasury strategy. On June 16, their stock closed at a peak of $1.895, a 25% jump from just $1.509 the day before. Cha-ching!

And on the very same day, Metaplanet hit a jaw-dropping 10k BTC milestone right after announcing their audacious goal of accumulating a mind-boggling 210,000 BTC by 2027. They bought 1,112 BTC on June 16, bringing their total BTC holdings to a staggering 10,000 BTC. These guys aren't messing around!

Throughout June, Metaplanet went on a Bitcoin buying spree, making a total of five purchases. Their latest one was on June 29, snapping up 1,005 BTC after issuing an additional $207 million in ordinary bonds. And after their latest purchase on July 7, Metaplanet's BTC holdings reached a whopping 15,555 BTC, currently worth a cool $1.68 billion in Bitcoin. Ka-boom!

Metaplanet's Ambitious 210k BTC Strategy

On June 6, this Japanese investment firm dropped a bombshell, announcing plans to gobble up even more BTC as part of their Bitcoin treasury strategy, inspired by none other than Michael Saylor's legendary approach. By 2027, they're gunning to boost their total holdings to a mind-blowing 210,000 BTC.

That 210,000 BTC milestone represents a full 1% of the entire existing Bitcoin supply worldwide. To reach this audacious goal, the firm has cranked up its annual BTC accumulation target for 2026 from a measly 21,000 BTC to a whopping 100,000 BTC. These guys are playing for keeps!

By the end of 2025, they plan to more than double their holdings from just 8,888 BTC in early June to a solid 30,000 BTC. Talk about setting the crypto world on fire!

Metaplanet has been stacking sats since May 2024, using Bitcoin as a shield against inflation and the weakening Japanese currency. Since November 2024, they've been the undisputed champ of the standard market in terms of trading volume, leaving Namura Shipbuilding in their dust with a mere 516 billion yen. The future is bright for Metaplanet, and it's all thanks to their unwavering commitment to the king of crypto: Bitcoin!
