<p>Metaplanet, often called Japan’s MicroStrategy, has been aggressively accumulating Bitcoin, reinforcing its position as the largest corporate <a href="https://bsc.news/post/what-is-bitcoin-how-it-works-mining-digital-gold-guide">Bitcoin</a> holder in Asia. The company recently <a href="https://x.com/Metaplanet_JP/status/1903979926308663309">added</a> another 150 BTC worth $12.6 million, bringing its total Bitcoin reserves to 3,350 BTC. This move is part of its long-term strategy to grow its Bitcoin treasury, aiming to hold 10,000 BTC by 2025 and 21,000 BTC by 2026.</p>

<p>Metaplanet’s latest Bitcoin purchase was made at an average price of $83,801 per BTC, pushing its total investment in Bitcoin to $292.8 million.</p>
<p>According to BitcoinTreasuries.net, Metaplanet is now the 10th largest public Bitcoin holder globally, trailing well behind Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy, which owns nearly 500,000 BTC. However, within Asia, Metaplanet stands alone at the top, marking a major milestone for institutional Bitcoin adoption in the region.</p>
<h2 id="strategic-expansion-and-leadership-moves">Strategic Expansion and Leadership Moves</h2>
<p>Metaplanet’s Bitcoin strategy took an unexpected turn last week when Eric Trump, the second son of former U.S. President Donald Trump, <a href="https://x.com/gerovich/status/1902890774758560120">joined</a> its Strategic Board of Advisors. CEO Simon Gerovich believes Trump's business expertise and passion for Bitcoin will help Metaplanet strengthen its position as a leading Bitcoin Treasury company.</p>
<p>The appointment is seen as a strategic move, potentially aligning Metaplanet with pro-Bitcoin policies linked to Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign. If Bitcoin-friendly regulations emerge in the U.S., Metaplanet could benefit from increased institutional interest and regulatory clarity.</p>
<h3 id="bitcoin-yield">Bitcoin Yield</h3>
<p>To track the effectiveness of its Bitcoin accumulation strategy, Metaplanet uses a metric called BTC Yield. This measures the percentage increase in Bitcoin holdings compared to the total number of shares outstanding over a given period.</p>
<ul>
 <li>Q3 2024 (July–September): BTC Yield was 41.7%, indicating steady accumulation.</li>
 <li>Q4 2024 (October–December): BTC Yield surged to 309.8% as the company aggressively expanded its holdings while Bitcoin’s price rallied.</li>
</ul>
<p>Since the beginning of 2024, its Metaplanet’s share price has surged 38.7%, according to Google Finance data. As of now, Metaplanet remains one of the most significant players in the bitcoin market, and its trajectory suggests that it will only continue to expand its influence in the digital asset space.&nbsp;</p>
