Metaplanet, a hotel company from Japan, is growing its Bitcoin holdings using smart financial moves. In early 2025, it raised ¥4 billion (about $26.1 million) by offering bonds that don’t pay interest and don’t need any security. The money went to the Evo Fund to help buy more Bitcoin showing Meta Planet’s belief in its Bitcoin investment plan.
Metaplanet used the money from the bonds to buy 150 more Bitcoins, bringing its total to 3,200 BTC—worth around $265 million. This makes Metaplanet the 10th-largest company in the world holding Bitcoin. The company plans to keep buying more, to own 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025 and 21,000 BTC by 2026.
The market has received Metaplanet’s bold move to invest heavily in Bitcoin. Since it started this strategy, the company’s stock price has jumped by more than 3,000%, showing that investors strongly support its new direction.
The market has welcomed Meta Planet’s recent financial move. In the last five days, its stock price jumped by 51%, hitting a record high of ¥4,270. The company is worth over $1 billion, showing investors trust its Bitcoin-focused plan.
Trading volume for Metaplanet shares has also increased, reaching over ¥27.8 billion (~$180 million). This shows that investors are interested in the company’s Bitcoin-focused strategy.
Metaplanet plans to grow its Bitcoin holdings even more by issuing private bonds worth up to ¥5 billion in partnership with EVO FUND. The money from these bonds will only be used to buy more Bitcoin, which shows the company’s long-term focus on its Bitcoin strategy.
