Metaplanet has dramatically solidified its position as a leading corporate holder of Bitcoin, pushing its total treasury past 30,000 BTC through a series of aggressive acquisitions. This strategic move not only places the Tokyo-based firm among the top four global corporate Bitcoin treasuries but also correlates with significant growth in its financial performance and increasing institutional investor interest.
Surging Bitcoin Treasury and Strategic Accumulation
In a rapid expansion of its Bitcoin holdings, Metaplanet recently added over 10,000 BTC in less than two weeks, culminating in a total of 30,823 BTC held at an average cost of $107,912. These substantial purchases, including a single acquisition of 5,419 BTC, enabled the company to surpass its ambitious 30,000 BTC target and outrank competitors like Bitcoin Standard Treasury. This aggressive accumulation strategy underscores Metaplanet's commitment to its Bitcoin-centric treasury vision.
Robust Financial Growth and Institutional Confidence
Metaplanet's bold Bitcoin strategy is mirrored by impressive financial results, with its Bitcoin Income Generation unit reporting a 115.7% revenue increase in Q3. This momentum led management to double its full-year revenue forecast and significantly raise operating profit projections. Simultaneously, the company has attracted major institutional investors; notably, Capital Group, managing $2.6 trillion in assets, has become Metaplanet’s largest shareholder. The presence of other financial titans like Vanguard, JPMorgan, and Citigroup among its top investors further highlights Metaplanet's growing appeal and its pivotal role in the increasing corporate adoption of Bitcoin.
