Tokyo-based investment firm Metaplanet announced the purchase of an additional 797 Bitcoin on Monday, July 14, 2025, as the cryptocurrency reached a fresh all-time high of $121,209. The company acquired the digital assets for approximately $93.6 million at an average price of $117,451 per Bitcoin.

CEO Simon Gerovich revealed that the company has acquired 3,002 BTC over the past week and an additional 7,464 BTC last month. This aggressive accumulation strategy positions Metaplanet as a major institutional Bitcoin holder in the current market cycle.
Bitcoin Price Surge Drives Institutional Interest
Bitcoin’s price rally extended weekly gains to more than 10.5%, with rising bullish sentiment among traders fueling the momentum. The cryptocurrency’s market capitalization has reached $2.4 trillion, placing it among the top five global assets and surpassing tech giants Amazon and Alphabet.
Daily trading volume for Bitcoin increased 33% to exceed $60 billion, while futures open interest rose 4% to $86.1 billion. Liquidation data from Coinglass shows $290 million in 24-hour liquidations, with $281 million attributed to short positions being squeezed out.
The institutional race for Bitcoin acquisition has intensified, with spot Bitcoin ETFs recording massive $2.7 billion inflows over the past week. Strategy’s Michael Saylor hinted on July 13 that he would continue Bitcoin purchases after a brief pause, adding to the competitive acquisition environment.
Metaplanet Stock Valuation Remains Attractive
Despite the significant Bitcoin purchases, Metaplanet stock showed limited movement during Monday’s early trading hours in Japan. The stock currently trades at 1,596 JPY, while Benchmark analysts have set a target price above 2,400 JPY, representing a 50% upside potential.
The company’s stock-to-net-asset-value ratio has contracted to 3.78 following today’s Bitcoin purchase, making it a more attractive value proposition as the BTC stockpile grows. This metric suggests potential upside for investors seeking exposure to Bitcoin through equity markets.
Bitcoin’s dominance in the cryptocurrency market remains strong as institutional adoption accelerates. The digital asset has proven its resilience and appeal to corporate treasuries, with companies like Metaplanet leading the charge in strategic Bitcoin accumulation.
