Tokyo-based investment firm Metaplanet has unveiled an unprecedented Bitcoin accumulation strategy, aiming to hold 100,000 BTC by 2026 and 210,000 BTC by 2027. This expansion plan positions Bitcoin as a reserve asset to mitigate economic volatility and boost shareholder value.
The company recently added 780 BTC to its treasury, bringing its total holdings to over 17,000 BTC worth more than $2 billion. Termed the ‘555 Million Plan’, this acquisition blueprint would require approximately $10 billion at current prices of around $119,200 per Bitcoin to achieve its 2027 target.
Funding mechanisms include the recent issuance of over 23 million shares through stock acquisition rights allocations. While this approach may dilute existing shareholdings, corporate leadership emphasizes that Bitcoin-per-share growth remains the key valuation metric. Metaplanet currently ranks as Asia’s second-largest corporate Bitcoin holder, signaling deepening institutional embrace of digital assets for treasury management.
