Metaplanet has announced an expansion of its Bitcoin holdings, acquiring an additional 780 BTC, bringing its total to 17,132 BTC, valued at over $2 billion. This move is part of a broader strategy to significantly increase its Bitcoin treasury, initially aiming for 21,000 BTC by 2026 but now targeting 100,000 BTC by the end of that year. The company funded these purchases through new stock issuances that allow for bond redemptions and Bitcoin acquisitions. With Bitcoin priced near $119,200, Metaplanet would require approximately $10 billion to reach its aggressive target, necessitating a steady monthly purchase rate of about 4,900 BTC over the next 17 months. The firm continues to solidify its position as a major corporate Bitcoin holder, aligning with its ambitious long-term vision within the cryptocurrency market.
