Metaplanet Inc., a publicly traded Japanese company, has significantly expanded its Bitcoin (BTC) treasury, reinforcing its long-term conviction in the world’s largest crypto asset by market capitalization. 

Stock Jumps 5% After BTC Purchase News 

According to its latest disclosure, the firm acquired an additional 780 BTC at an average price of approximately $118,622 per coin, representing a total investment of around $92.5 million. The big buy comes as BTC eyes the $120,000 price mark. The asset has fluctuated between $115,000 and $118,000 over the past week. 

The latest purchase increases Metaplanet’s total bitcoin holdings to 17,132 BTC (valued at over $2.8 billion), making it one of the most prominent institutional holders of the d5g5ta3 aset globally. The company’s cumulative investment now stands at roughly $1.73 billion, with an average acquisition price of about $101,030 per bitcoin. 

Following the BTC acquisition announcement, the publicly traded company’s stock surged, representing a 5.00% increase at 1,240 JPY ($8.39). The firm also revealed that from July 1st to 28, 2025, it achieved a BTC Yield of 22.5%, significantly lower than last month’s BTC Yield of 129.4%. 

Corporate Giants Buying BTC 

The move reflects a broader strategic alignment toward digital assets amid increasing institutional adoption globally. Metaplanet has steadily built its BTC reserves throughout the year, and its aggressive accumulation suggests a strong belief in bitcoin’s long-term store-of-value potential. 

The announcement comes at a time of growing interest in crypto-assets among publicly listed entities in Asia and beyond. With regulatory clarity gradually improving and market confidence rebounding, companies like Metaplanet appear to be positioning themselves as one of the biggest players in the crypto industry. 

While BTC’s price has experienced typical volatility in recent months, Metaplanet’s cost basis suggests confidence in long-term upside potential. Other prominent firms are also aggressively purchasing the asset as a primary reserve. These companies have followed in the footsteps of entities like Strategy, a business intelligence company and the largest corporate holder of BTC. The firm began acquiring the asset in 2020. Since then, it has purchased over 40 billion, increasing its Bitcoin treasury. 

Interestingly, more firms are joining the crypto bandwagon as BTC treasury increases. Last week, The Smarter Web Company expanded its portfolio. The company purchased approximately 1,825 BTC, valued at around $211 million. The entity acquired the asset at an average cost of $118,076 per coin, reflecting its long-term commitment to integrating BTC as a core asset to its corporate treasury management strategy.
