Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has bought 330 more Bitcoin, taking its total holdings to 4,855 BTC. The purchase, disclosed on April 21, was made at an average price of ¥12.18 million (around $85,605) per Bitcoin, totaling ¥4.02 billion ($28 million).
According to a release, Metaplanet’s total Bitcoin stash is now worth approximately $414 million, with an average purchase price of $85,386 per coin.
The company tracks its performance using a unique metric called “BTC Yield,” which measures the amount of Bitcoin held per fully diluted share. Its Bitcoin Yield for this quarter (April 1, 2025 to April 21, 2025) stands at 12.1%, following strong yields of 41.7%, 309.8%, and 95.6% in the previous three quarters.
To fund its Bitcoin strategy, Metaplanet has actively used capital market tools like zero-coupon bonds and stock acquisition rights. As of April 2025, the company has completed over 40% of its “210 Million Plan,” raising more than ¥35 billion ($226 million) so far. Just last week, on April 16, it raised another $10 million through a zero-interest bond.
Metaplanet expects to make ¥3 billion ($27.5 million) from the Bitcoin program in the current year to achieve a total of ¥3.4 billion ($31.3 million) in total revenues.
Metaplanet’s stock on the Tokyo Stock Exchange has seen a 1,086% surge over the past year, reflecting investor optimism since the company embraced its bitcoin strategy.
