Japanese public company Metaplanet, known as Asia’s MicroStrategy (now Strategy), has scooped another 145 Bitcoin, hitting the 5,000 BTC milestone.
With the recent acquisition announced Thursday, the company has already reached 50% of this year’s BTC holding goal.
“We have surpassed 5,000 BTC,” Simon Gerovich, Metaplanet CEO, wrote on X.
“Reached 50% of the initial target of 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025. This marks a significant milestone in our aim to become one of the world’s leading bitcoin-holding companies. From Japan, we will lead the global bitcoin race.”
Per the company disclosure, Metaplanet purchased 145 BTC at an average price of ¥13,280,472 ($93,327) per Bitcoin. The aggregated amount of BTC purchased on Thursday amounted to ¥1.926 billion ($13.6 million).
Metaplanet Reports Significant BTC Yield
Metaplanet has splurged $448 million to rack up 5,000 BTC at an average price of $89,743 per Bitcoin.
Currently, the company has achieved BTC Yield of 121.1% YTD 2025, Gerovich wrote. Besides, Metaplanet’s significant BTC Yield percentages over recent quarters indicate strong performance in its Bitcoin acquisition strategy.
The Japanese firm evaluates its performance using a metric called BTC Yield. It reports the change in the ratio of total BTC held to fully diluted shares outstanding over a given period.
Further, the company has been active in the capital markets, issuing stock acquisition rights to fund its BTC accumulation strategy.
The recent Bitcoin accumulation comes just days after Metaplanet scooped up 330 more Bitcoin for $28.2 million.
Simon Gerovich Reaffirms 10,000 BTC Goal
Early this week, Gerovich reaffirmed that the company’s long-term goal is centered around Bitcoin accumulation, at a time when Metaplanet is seeing short-term stock price fluctuations.
In a message to his 41K followers on X, he stressed that the firm would continue to build its Bitcoin accumulation, “even in today’s volatile market environment.”
“We are steadily executing a clear strategy as a Bitcoin treasury company, aiming to become one of the world’s most valuable companies in the future,” he told his shareholders.
“In terms of Bitcoin holding growth rate, we are the fastest in the world, and in absolute volume, we are expanding at a pace second only to Strategy Corp. We aim to achieve our target of 10,000 BTC by the end of the year.”
