- Metaplanet purchased 4,279 BTC for approximately $451 million in Q4 2025.
- The acquisition brings the company’s total Bitcoin holdings to 35,102 BTC.
- Metaplanet reported a 568.2% BTC yield for 2025, surpassing initial forecasts.
Japanese publicly traded company Metaplanet has capped off 2025 with a significant Bitcoin acquisition, adding 4,279 BTC to its treasury in the fourth quarter.
The purchase, valued at around $451 million, was executed at an average price of $105,412 per Bitcoin, according to the company’s official announcement.
This latest move solidifies Metaplanet’s position as one of the largest corporate Bitcoin holders globally, with total holdings now standing at 35,102 BTC acquired at an average cost of $107,606 per coin.
The Tokyo Stock Exchange-listed firm (3350) has been aggressively accumulating Bitcoin throughout the year, drawing comparisons to U.S.-based MicroStrategy’s strategy.
Metaplanet’s Bitcoin Income Generation business has performed strongly, generating approximately $55 million in revenue for 2025, exceeding expectations.
“Metaplanet has acquired 4279 BTC during Q4 2025 for $451.06 million at ~$105,412 per bitcoin and has achieved BTC Yield of 568.2% YTD 2025,” said CEO Simon Gerovich in a post on X.
Despite the impressive yield, the company’s holdings are currently underwater given Bitcoin’s recent price around $87,000. However, Metaplanet views Bitcoin as a long-term store of value, undeterred by short-term volatility.
Industry observers note that such corporate adoptions could bolster Bitcoin’s legitimacy as a treasury asset, potentially encouraging more firms to follow suit amid evolving regulatory clarity in Japan and globally.
The acquisition comes amid a mixed year-end for crypto markets, with Bitcoin facing pressure from holiday trading volumes but maintaining institutional interest.
