Metaplanet has increased its Bitcoin holdings by acquiring an additional 780 BTC, bringing its total to 17,132 BTC, worth over $2 billion. This strategy is part of a long-term commitment to accumulate the digital asset, aiming for a target of 100,000 BTC by the end of 2026, significantly up from an earlier goal of 21,000 BTC. The firm funded its latest acquisition through new stock issuances in July, which helped redeem corporate bonds and finance Bitcoin purchases. With current Bitcoin prices around $119,200, Metaplanet will need approximately $10 billion to reach its target, implying a need to acquire about 4,900 BTC per month over the next 17 months.
