Metaplanet has acquired an additional 1,005 BTC worth roughly $108 million, bringing its total holdings to 13,350 BTC — surpassing those of Galaxy Digital and CleanSpark.
Simon Gerovich, CEO of Metaplanet, said Monday that the company bought the latest batch of bitcoin for $108.1 million at an average price of $107,601 per bitcoin. It currently holds 13,350 BTC, worth about $1.4 billion based on current market prices.
Metaplanet’s latest bitcoin purchase makes it the world’s fifth-largest publicly listed corporate holder of the cryptocurrency, according to data from BitcoinTreasuries.net (which has yet to reflect the company’s Monday acquisition). The move puts it ahead of Galaxy Digital, which holds 12,830 BTC, and CleanSpark, with 12,502 BTC.
“Just three 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,” Gerovich said on X today. Earlier this month, the company announced a revised target to hold over 210,000 BTC by the end of 2027.
On the same day, Metaplanet disclosed that it has issued zero-interest ordinary bonds worth 30 billion yen ($208 million) with a scheduled redemption date of Dec. 29, 2025. It also announced a buyback and cancellation plan for its third series of bonds initially disclosed on Nov. 18, 2024, which bear interest and are secured by collateral.
“Funds raised through the issuance of the new bonds will be partially allocated to the buyback and cancellation, with the remainder used for the purchase of Bitcoin,” the company said.
Metaplanet’s stock jumped 9.9% on Monday morning in Japan, with the market still open, according to Yahoo Finance data. Its stock has risen 53.5% over the past month and 370.7% year-to-date.
Strategy, led by Michael Saylor, continues to top the global list with total holdings of 592,345 BTC following its acquisition of 245 BTC last week.
