The latest acquisition cost approximately 15.6 million Japanese yen per Bitcoin, equivalent to $108,000 at current exchange rates. Bitcoin currently trades at $107,513.29, representing a 0.52% increase over the past 24 hours according to market data.
Metaplanet now holds the seventh-largest corporate Bitcoin treasury globally, based on BitcoinTreasuries.NET rankings. The company trails closely behind Bitcoin mining firm CleanSpark, which maintains 12,502 BTC in its reserves.
Ambitious 555 Million Plan Drives Aggressive Acquisition Strategy
The Bitcoin purchase follows Metaplanet’s Tuesday announcement of board approval for additional capital contributions reaching $5 billion. This funding will accelerate the company’s “555 Million Plan,” an ambitious strategy targeting 201,112 BTC by 2027.
The plan requires approximately $21 billion at current Bitcoin prices. Metaplanet previously set an intermediate goal of accumulating 100,000 Bitcoin by 2026. The company has not disclosed the exact amount raised through its recent capital contribution approval.
The rapid expansion demonstrates Metaplanet’s commitment to becoming a major corporate Bitcoin holder. The company’s aggressive timeline requires consistent large-scale purchases over the next three years.
Global Corporate Bitcoin Adoption Accelerates
Metaplanet joins an expanding group of companies implementing Bitcoin treasury strategies. Recent corporate announcements indicate growing institutional confidence in cryptocurrency as a reserve asset.
Nakamoto Holdings secured $51.5 million in fresh capital specifically for Bitcoin acquisitions. The funding demonstrates investor appetite for companies focused on cryptocurrency accumulation strategies.
South Korean market expansion gained attention through Parataxis Holdings’ new Bitcoin treasury platform announcement. The development signals cryptocurrency adoption spreading across Asian financial markets.
Norwegian firms show particular interest in Bitcoin treasury strategies. Crypto firm K33 plans raising 85 million Swedish krona ($8.9 million) through share issuance to acquire up to 1,000 BTC. Block Exchange, another Norwegian crypto company, announced its Bitcoin treasury strategy in early June. The announcement drove the company’s stock price up 138% on the same trading day.
French technology firm The Blockchain Group recently acquired 182 BTC for approximately $19.6 million. The purchase brought the company’s total holdings to 1,728 BTC according to industry tracking data.
These corporate moves reflect broader institutional acceptance of Bitcoin as a legitimate treasury asset. Companies across different sectors and regions are allocating significant capital to cryptocurrency holdings.
The trend extends beyond traditional technology companies. Firms from various industries now consider Bitcoin a hedge against currency devaluation and inflation concerns.
