#Metaplanet Becomes Fourth-Largest Public $BTC Holder


Metaplanet has acquired 5,268 $BTC for approximately $623 million, elevating its total holdings to 30,823 $BTC. The Japanese $BTC #treasury company now ranks as the fourth-largest publicly traded holder globally.


CEO Simon Gerovich confirmed the company trails only Strategy, MARA Holdings, and XXI in public Bitcoin holdings. The latest purchase occurred at 17.4 million yen per coin, equivalent to roughly $118,328.


The acquisition follows a $632 million $BTC purchase announced on Sept. 21, marking the firm's largest single Bitcoin acquisition to date. The company has aggressively expanded its $BTC holdings throughout 2025.


#Metaplanet reported quarterly revenue of 2.438 billion yen, approximately $16.5 million, in Q3. This represents 115.7% growth compared to Q2 performance, demonstrating significant operational expansion.


Gerovich stated that Q3 results demonstrate operational scalability and strengthen the financial foundation for planned preferred share issuance. The planned offering supports the company's broader $BTC treasury strategy.


The firm announced plans last month to raise $1.4 billion through issuing 385 million new shares. Proceeds from the offering are earmarked specifically for additional $BTC purchases as part of the company's accumulation strategy.


Metaplanet's board recently approved a new U.S. subsidiary called Metaplanet Income Corp. The entity focuses on scaling a Bitcoin income generation line through derivatives and related activities, expanding beyond simple #accumulation strategies.
