Metaplanet Reaches 20,000 BTC Holdings Worth $2 Billion Despite Stock Drop
Japan’s Metaplanet has hit a major milestone in its Bitcoin accumulation strategy, officially surpassing 20,000 BTC in reserves. The latest purchase of 1,009 Bitcoins, valued at $112 million, brings the company’s total Bitcoin holdings to approximately $2 billion.
Aggressive Bitcoin Treasury Expansion
According to the company’s disclosure, the most recent acquisition was made at an average cost of about $102,700 per coin (15.1 million yen). Metaplanet’s total investment now stands at 302.3 billion yen.
This move comes shortly after the firm added 103 BTC worth $11.6 million at an average purchase price of $113,491 per token. The Japanese company’s rapid pace highlights its ambition to become one of the largest corporate Bitcoin treasuries globally.
For comparison, industry giant Strategy recently boosted its holdings by 3,081 BTC, taking its total stash to 632,457 BTC—over 3% of Bitcoin’s total supply. Metaplanet’s 20,000 BTC firmly positions it among the notable corporate holders of the cryptocurrency.
Stock Market Reaction and Financing Plans
Despite the achievement, Metaplanet’s stock dropped 4% to 844 yen following the announcement, adding to a weekly decline of nearly 7%. Bloomberg noted that while the company’s shares had soared over 400% earlier in 2025, they have since lost almost half their value since mid-June.
In response, Metaplanet announced plans to raise $884 million through an overseas share sale, with the possibility of expanding the deal. The company will also seek shareholder approval to issue preferred stock, boosting its financing options for future Bitcoin purchases.
Adding to its strategic positioning, Metaplanet granted Eric Trump 3.3 million shares through stock acquisition rights, signaling its effort to align Bitcoin adoption with international financial and political influence. 
Despite short-term stock volatility and broader bearish market sentiment—Bitcoin itself has dropped 5% in the last week—the firm remains committed to deepening its Bitcoin reserves and strengthening its balance sheet with equity-based financing.
