Earlier this year, the Japanese firm announced plans to build its Bitcoin Treasury to 10,000 BTC by the year-end. Back then, the firm was holding less than 2,000 BTC in its kitty.
However, with the aggressive Bitcoin purchases in the past few months, the firm has reached closer to achieving 90% of its target. The company has now entered the list of top ten Bitcoin holding firms, surpassing Jack Dorsey’s Block, Inc.
Today’s filing by Metaplanet comes just after the company raised $70 million last week from bond issuance. The firm has been quick in deploying this capital to Bitcoin without wasting much time.
Following today’s announcement, Metaplanet stock has gained another $4, moving past 1,110 JPY and is on track to reach a new all-time high.
Interestingly, the stock has attracted strong investor interest amid instability in the Japanese bond market and rising yields above 3%. While stocks on the Tokyo Stock Exchange have faced significant selling pressure, Metaplanet’s stock is up by an impressive 155% over the past month.
Metaplanet’s CEO Simon Gerovich shared a positive update on the company’s Bitcoin yield performance for the second quarter of 2025. During the past quarter, the Japanese firm generated a BTC yield of 66.3%, while its year-to-date BTC yield stands at a staggering 225%.

Adding to the milestone, the mNAV has organically adjusted back to 4.75, reflecting robust treasury management and strategic execution by the Metaplanet team. Market analysts believe that this makes the Metaplanet stock still undervalued, despite its massive runup, in comparison to peers like Microstrategy.
The company’s Bitcoin strategist, Dylan LeClair, explained that the company’s BTC rating has risen to 11.11x, adding that it is better than a credit rating.

Last week, LeClair said they don’t view Bitcoin as just a hedge, where corporations generally hold only 1-2% exposure. Instead, they are fully committed to the asset class.
