The company started its Bitcoin accumulation policy in April 2024 and has a big target to possess more than 210,000 BTC, or 1% of the total supply of Bitcoins, by the end of 2027.

Following the acquisition news, Metaplanet’s stock rose 4.91% to 1,239 yen ($8.3) by midday in Japan. Despite a 24.91% drop over the past month, the stock has surged 516.42% year-to-date, according to Google Finance.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin itself edged up 0.9% in the past 24 hours, trading at $119,330 at the time of writing. Metaplanet’s aggressive Bitcoin play is turning heads and showing how corporate adoption of crypto is evolving fast.
