Metaplanet Announces Bitcoin Purchase Eyeing 35% BTC Yield
Earlier today, the Japanese firm announced the purchase of 135 Bitcoins for an investment value of $13 million and an average price of $96,185 per Bitcoin. Interestingly, it seems that this purchase came just hours before today’s crypto market crash wherein the BTC price slipped to $92,000.
Following its recent purchase, Metaplanet announced that the firm has attained a year-to-date BTC yield of 23.2% in 2025. As of February 25, 2025, the company holds a total of 2,235 BTC, acquired for roughly $182.9 million at an average price of $81,834 per Bitcoin.
Company CEO Simon Gerovich shared an update on the company’s Bitcoin performance metrics. He further stated that the firm plans to attain a BTC Yield of 35% by the end of 2025. The Japanese MicroStrategy has already announced its ambitious plan of accumulating 21,000 Bitcoins by the end of 2026.
Gerovich emphasized that BTC yield remains the key performance metric for Bitcoin treasury companies, stating, “We will continue to focus on maximizing basis points (BPS)”. Commenting on the development, the firm’s Bitcoin strategist Dylan LeClair said: that Metaplanet has successfully raised approximately $47 million in equity within the first four trading days of its ambitious “21m Plan”. The fundraising effort has already achieved 5.54% of its target, signaling strong initial momentum.
Will Stock Price Rally to 10,000 JPY?
Last month in January, the Metaplanet stock rallied to its all-time high level above 7,000 JPY. However, after the partial retracement, it is now trading at 6,010 levels. If the Japanese firm continues with its aggressive Bitcoin acquisition plans, the stock rally can continue further to 10,000 JPY levels from here onwards.
Metaplanet announced plans for a stock split to address concerns over the rising cost of its shares. This will help to enhance market liquidity and attract a broader investor base. The company emphasized in a press release that the split would lower the price per trading unit, making its stock more accessible to a wider range of investors.
The Japanese firm views this move as an opportunity to strengthen its relationship with shareholders while addressing financial barriers created by the high share price.
