Metaplanet, a Tokyo-based investment firm, has just taken its Bitcoin holdings to 8,888 BTC after buying 1,088 more coins. According to official figures, each of the newly acquired Bitcoins cost about $107,770, for a total outlay of roughly $117 million.

Based on reports, the company’s average cost across all its Bitcoin purchases stands at $93,354 per BTC. With 8,888 coins now in hand, Metaplanet has so far invested close to $830 million. At today’s prices, that stash is worth around $932 million, leaving the firm with an unrealized gain of nearly $103 million.

Metaplanet Hits Milestone

Metaplanet began buying Bitcoin in April 2024. Since then, it has moved faster than many long‐time holders. Block Inc., which started its Bitcoin program in October 2020, currently has 8,584 BTC, making it just behind Metaplanet.

BitcoinTreasuries data shows Metaplanet is now the 10th‐largest publicly traded Bitcoin holder. By contrast, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) leads the pack with 580,250 coins, and El Salvador’s national reserves stand at 6,195 BTC.

Cost And Market Value

According to the latest update, Metaplanet spent about $117 million on its most recent 1,088 BTC purchase. In total, the firm has poured nearly $830 million into its Bitcoin treasury. As of June 2, 2025, those 8,888 coins are valued at approximately $932 million.

That leaves an unrealized gain of around $102.5 million on the books. The report also shows that Metaplanet’s Bitcoin Yield hit 96% between January 1 and March 31, 2025. From April 1 to June 2, 2025, the yield stands at 66%.

Shifting Corporate Strategies

Other firms are following the same path. Strategy holds 580,250 Bitcoins and has hinted at another buy on social media. DDC Enterprise just added 79 BTC to bring its total to 100. Jetking, a firm listed in India, added nearly six coins and now holds 21.

Meanwhile, Brazilian company Méliuz is planning a public share sale to raise R$450 million (about $78 million) with the aim of buying Bitcoin. Based on reports, DDC’s CEO Norma Chu said Bitcoin’s limited supply and 24/7 liquidity fit their treasury needs.

Global And Sovereign Moves

Governments are also stepping in. El Salvador has piled up 6,195 BTC in its national reserve. Across borders, Panama’s state‐owned bank plans to open Bitcoin savings accounts and allow tax payments in crypto.

Metaplanet has acquired 1088 BTC for ~$117.3 million at ~$107,771 per bitcoin and has achieved BTC Yield of 225.4% YTD 2025. As of 6/2/2025, we hold 8888 $BTC acquired for ~$829.7 million at ~$93,354 per bitcoin. $MTPLF pic.twitter.com/FYjiHiOIzL

Panama City’s mayor, Mayer Mizrachi, announced these moves during the Bitcoin Conference 2025 in Las Vegas. Tower Bank in Panama also agreed to accept cryptocurrency tax payments, signaling growing official support.

Looking Ahead

Metaplanet has set a target to reach 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025. With 8,888 coins already secured, the firm is at nearly 89% of that goal. The company’s CEO, Simon Gerovich, marked the milestone with a post celebrating the lucky “8888” figure.
