After changing its aim for the end of the year from 30,000 BTC to 20,000 BTC, Metaplanet quadrupled its holdings in three months.

Metaplanet, a Japanese investment firm, has added 1,009 BTC worth around $112 million to its Bitcoin holdings, making them even stronger. After the transaction, the company now owns 20,000 BTC, which is worth more than $2.15 billion at current market values.

As per the company filings, it show that the most recent transaction was made at an average price of almost $111,068 per coin. This transaction puts Metaplanet in the top ten corporate Bitcoin holders in the world. BitcoinTreasuries.net’s most recent statistics puts it sixth.

In addition to its acquisitions, Metaplanet has also done a number of bond redemptions and share exercises to help its treasury grow. It paid back six billion yen from its 19th Series of Ordinary Bonds on July 4, 2025, and then paid back more money later that month.

There were several stock acquisition rights between July and August, which added up to tens of millions of new shares. These measures, which were made public in regulatory filings, made it possible for both debt payments and continued Bitcoin transactions.

Metaplanet’s President Simon Gerovich still looks for ways to pursue capital-raising measures.  A vote by shareholders set for today is asking for permission to issue up to 550 million new shares in other countries.

Bloomberg said earlier that Eric Trump is likely to be at the meeting. If approved, the money that goes above 130 billion yen will mostly be used to buy more Bitcoin, which is in line with Metaplanet’s stated goal of growing its holdings toward longer-term goals.
