Metaplanet Launches $5,4 Billion Plan to Accumulate 210.000 BTC
- Metaplanet aims to reach 210.000 bitcoins by 2027
- Capital increase aims to intensify bitcoin strategy
- Metaplanet shares surge 1.390% on BTC bet
Metaplanet, a Japanese company listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, announced an ambitious $5,4 billion capital increase plan, with the aim of massively expanding its position in bitcoin. The strategy involves the issuance of 555 million shares, equivalent to 92,4% of the outstanding capital, through mobile warrants — a financial instrument widely used in Japan for raising funds.
According to CEO Simon Gerovich, “We are thrilled to announce Asia’s largest capital raise to buy bitcoin — again!” The so-called “$555 Million Plan” represents an expansion of the company’s previous plan, which initially sought to raise 10.000 BTC by 2025. The goal now is to reach 30.000 BTC by 2025, 100.000 BTC by the end of 2026, and 210.000 BTC by 2027 — equivalent to 1% of the total bitcoin supply.
Thrilled to Asia's largest-ever equity announce raise to buy Bitcoin — again! 🚀 This time: $5.4 billion to accelerate our Bitcoin strategy. Our new target: 210,000 BTC by 2027.

The company already holds 8.888 BTC, acquired at a cost of approximately $849 million, which now represents $920 million in assets. In just five months, the company has achieved 89% of its initial target, recording an unrealized gain of around $71 million.
With this purchase volume, Metaplanet ranks 7th globally among companies with the largest treasury in bitcoin. Alongside names such as MicroStrategy, Trump Media and GameStop, the company is intensifying corporate adoption of bitcoin as a strategic asset. Currently, 144 companies maintain some level of exposure to BTC in their reserves.
According to Metaplanet, “Bitcoin is repricing the global cost of capital.” The company argues that its strategy is anchored in the issuance of bitcoin-backed assets as a bridge between the traditional financial system and the new value architecture based on cryptocurrencies.
The company uses the BTC Yield indicator as its central performance metric. In 2024, this rate reached 225,4%, reflecting the jump from 1.762 to 8.888 BTC in its reserves.
Metaplanet shares closed last Friday with a slight drop of 1,6%, but have accumulated an appreciation of 258% in the year and 1.390% in the last 12 months, becoming the most traded stock in Japan in volume and revenue at the moment.
