[Ben Graham]

Metaplanet has made headlines yet again with the expansion of its Bitcoin treasury. The Japanese company now holds 13,350 Bitcoin – propelling it to the fifth-largest corporate Bitcoin holder globally, beating Tesla, Coinbase and more. 

In its latest move, Metaplanet purchased a $108 million purchase of 1005 BTC. The move comes as part of an aggressive acquisition that has seen the company’s holdings balloon from 3,350 BTC to 13,350 in just three months.

Furthermore, Metaplanet – dubbed as Japan’s Strategy – has announced plans to issue ¥30 billion ($207 million) in 0% ordinary bonds to fund further Bitcoin purchases.

Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich took to X on 30 June 2025. “Just 3 months ago, we announced live at our shareholder meeting that we hit 3,350 BTC — and now we’ve added 10,000 more to reach 13,350 BTC,” he said.
