Japanese listed company Metaplanet has boosted Bitcoin reserves by over 20,000 BTC, overtaking the US mining and assaulting platforms and becoming the first non-US company to join the global top six corporate holders.
Metaplanet announced Monday that it had purchased an additional 1,009 BTC for around $112 million at an average price per Bitcoin.
This latest acquisition has the company’s total holdings exceeding 20,000 BTC and cumulative acquisition costs of $2.06 billion (30.23 billion yen). Just a week ago, on August 25, the company added 103 BTC, highlighting its accelerated accumulation strategy.
Data from bitcointreasuries.net shows that Metaplanet holds more Bitcoin than Riot Platforms, a US-based mining company. In the third quarter of 2025, Metaplanet recorded a BTC yield of 30.7%, reflecting the growth of Bitcoin reserves compared to fully diluted She accounts. Surge highlights how Metaplanet directly links shareholder value with Bitcoin accumulation.
Metaplanet combines capital market activity with Bitcoin strategy. In August, the company issued its 20th stock option to the EVO fund, creating 60 million shares. The proceeds funded the latest Bitcoin purchases and early repayments for the 19th series of Corporate Bond.
Despite aggressive purchases, the market showed little response. On the day of the announcement, Metaplanet shares closed at 831 yen, with -5.46% from the previous day
Metaplanet’s holdings confirm its position among the owners of Bitcoin, the world’s largest company. The company says it will continue to accumulate Bitcoin in line with its capital strategy and market conditions. Investors and the crypto industry are looking closely as the Japanese listed company pursues Asia’s boldest Bitcoin financial policy.
