Metaplanet has significantly increased its Bitcoin holdings, reaching a total of 17,132 BTC after acquiring 780 BTC recently. This expansion is part of the company's strategy to accumulate Bitcoin, which began in 2024 with the aim of holding 100,000 BTC by the end of 2026. The total value of their holdings now exceeds $2 billion. To finance these acquisitions, Metaplanet has engaged in stock market activities, issuing over 23 million shares in July to fund both debt redemptions and Bitcoin purchases. Additionally, the firm’s latest plan replaces its previous target of 21,000 BTC with new goals of 100,000 BTC by 2026 and 210,000 by 2027. If Bitcoin prices remain around $119,200, the company would need to spend approximately $10 billion to attain its 2026 target, averaging about 4,900 BTC purchases monthly over the next 17 months. This aggressive strategy is positioning Metaplanet as a major player in the corporate Bitcoin sector, following in the footsteps of notable figures like Michael Saylor.
