The company’s Bitcoin purchases have been consistent since it launched its accumulation plan in April 2024. With this addition, Metaplanet ranks seventh globally among Bitcoin treasury holders, according to Bitcointreasuries data.

Valuation and Growth Plans

The current market price of Bitcoin is nearly $115,000, and the company’s Bitcoin portfolio exceeds $74.2 billion in value. The firm’s average purchase price across its holdings stands at $102,653 per Bitcoin, with total acquisition costs reaching $1.94 billion.

By the end of 2025, the firm is working to increase its Bitcoin by 30,000 units, which is an increment of 60.4% of its current stores. Other predictions are 100,000 BTC by 2026 and 210,000 BTC by 2027. Reaching that point would make up 1% of the total Bitcoin supply.

Metaplanet intends to fund these acquisitions through positive cash flow. It continues to reinvest collected funds fully into Bitcoin purchases and reinforces its accumulation strategy.

Financial Performance and Market Reaction

Metaplanet posted strong earnings during the second quarter. Revenue climbed 41% quarter-on-quarter to reach 1.2 billion yen, equal to $8.4 million. The net income showed a drastic turnaround with a loss of 5 billion yen in the first quarter into a gain of 11.1 billion yen or $75.1 million.

The company projects full-year revenue of 3.4 billion yen and an operating profit of 2.5 billion yen. Recurring income from its Bitcoin-related operations has grown for three straight quarters. This recurring income provides stability and supports the expansion of its treasury activities.

Shareholder Confidence and Market Position

Over the past year, Metaplanet’s shareholder base has expanded 40 times. Investor growth reflects confidence in the company’s Bitcoin-centered strategy. Rising institutional interest has further solidified Metaplanet’s presence in the global cryptocurrency space.

The company’s market capitalization has surged from $14 million in April to several billion dollars. Its growing Bitcoin treasury positions it as one of the largest corporate holders of digital assets worldwide.
