Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure

Earlier today, Japanese firm Metaplanet announced plans to raise approximately $745 million to bolster its Bitcoin (BTC) reserves. To fund these purchases, the company has issued 21 million shares of 0% discount moving strike warrants.

Metaplanet Eyes 21,000 BTC By End Of 2026

In an effort to expand its Bitcoin holdings, Tokyo-based publicly listed firm Metaplanet revealed plans to raise around 116 billion yen – approximately $745 million – marking the largest capital raise in the Asian equity market specifically for BTC acquisition.

Notably, the funds will be raised through 21 million shares of 0% discount moving strike warrants, which allow investors to purchase shares at an exercise price equal to the current market price. This structure minimizes dilution for existing shareholders while enabling the capital raise.

Metaplanet’s latest initiative aligns with its “Bitcoin-first, Bitcoin-only” strategy, which aims to increase the company’s BTC holdings amid rising global demand for the cryptocurrency and the weakening value of the Japanese yen.

The firm’s ambitious target includes accumulating 10,000 BTC by Q4 2025, a goal that would cost over $1 billion at current market prices. Furthermore, Metaplanet aims to hold 21,000 BTC by Q4 2026, a symbolic milestone representing 0.1% of the cryptocurrency’s fixed total supply of 21 million.

Speaking in a press release, Metaplanet president Simon Gerovich said that the market acknowledged the company as “Tokyo’s preeminent Bitcoin company.” Gerovich added:

Our vision is to lead the Bitcoin renaissance in Japan and emerge as one of the largest corporate Bitcoin holders globally. This plan is our commitment to that future.

Currently, Metaplanet ranks 12th among public companies with substantial BTC holdings, owning 1,761 BTC valued at over $179 million at today’s market prices. If the firm achieves its goal of 10,000 BTC by year-end, it could climb to 4th position on the global list, surpassing major players like Coinbase, Hut 8 Mining, and Riot Platforms.

According to data from Yahoo! Finance, Metaplanet’s shares closed the day at $26.77, up 3.10%. On a year-to-date (YTD) basis, the company’s stock has surged an impressive 19.57%, reflecting the success of its BTC treasury strategy.
