<a href="https://www.ethnews.com/metaplanet-raises-531-million-to-chase-210000-btc-by-2027/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Metaplanet </a>is adding another $50 million to its <a href="https://www.ethnews.com/prices/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a> war chest, extending a treasury strategy that has already turned the Tokyo-listed company into one of the largest corporate holders of the asset anywhere in the world.
The company <a href="https://x.com/Metaplanet/status/2047512101631991944/photo/1" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">said</a> Friday that it had issued $50 million in zero-interest bonds, with the full offering taken up by EVO Fund, the Cayman Islands-based investor that has backed several of its previous raises. This was Metaplanet’s 20th bond issuance, a sign that what began as a bold Bitcoin pivot is now being financed through a fairly regular capital-markets routine.

The structure of the deal matters. Zero-interest bonds give Metaplanet a way to raise capital without immediate coupon costs, while preserving room to keep accumulating Bitcoin aggressively. For a company that has made BTC acquisition its defining financial strategy, that kind of instrument is more than convenient. It is central.
Metaplanet has been building its Bitcoin position consistently since April 2024, and the pace has not exactly slowed. In the first quarter of this year, the company <a href="https://www.ethnews.com/metaplanet-is-turning-its-35000-bitcoin-treasury-into-a-venture-fund/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">bought 5,075 BTC, bringing total holdings to 40,177 BTC</a> as of March 31.
That stash now places Metaplanet as the third-largest Bitcoin treasury firm in the world, according to the figures provided.

The significance of the latest bond sale is not just the amount raised. It is what the company is signaling by doing it again.
Metaplanet is no longer experimenting with Bitcoin as a hedge or side asset. It is organizing its balance sheet around continued accumulation and using repeated bond issuance as the mechanism to do it.
EVO Fund’s full subscription also suggests the market around the company’s strategy remains supportive, at least among the counterparties that matter most to these offerings.
For now, the message is fairly direct. Metaplanet has found a financing playbook it believes works, and as long as investors keep meeting these bond sales, the company appears in no hurry to stop turning that capital into more Bitcoin.
