Metaplanet recently purchased 1,005 bitcoins for approximately $108 million, surpassing Cleanspark to become the fifth largest enterprise-level bitcoin holder in the world. As of now, Metaplanet has accumulated a total of 13,350 bitcoins, with a total purchase cost of about $1.31 billion, averaging around $97,832 per bitcoin. Based on the current market price, the market value of the bitcoins held by Metaplanet has reached $1.45 billion.

According to BiTBO data, bitcoin mining company Cleanspark currently holds 12,502 bitcoins. Metaplanet has surpassed Tesla, Hut 8, Coinbase, and Block Inc. in terms of holdings, currently ranking just behind Strategy, Marathon Digital, Twenty One Capital, and Riot Platforms.

Metaplanet's CEO Simon Gerovich stated that the average purchase price for the newly acquired bitcoins was $107,601, and the company's bitcoin investment return rate has reached 349% so far this year.

This purchase follows the company's announcement of a bond refinancing strategy to expand its bitcoin reserves. Metaplanet issued zero-interest ordinary bonds worth 30 billion yen (approximately $208 million) through its EVO fund to further increase its bitcoin holdings.

Part of the funds from the newly issued bonds will be used to repurchase and cancel the third phase of ordinary bonds valued at 1.75 billion yen (approximately $12 million) with an annual interest rate of 0.36%. This move provides the company with interest-free loans and ample cash flow to support its ongoing accumulation of bitcoin.

The company's disclosure document stated: "A portion of the proceeds from the new bond issuance will be used for the repurchase and cancellation of old bonds, and the remaining portion will be used to purchase bitcoin."

Earlier this month, Metaplanet revised its bitcoin reserve strategy, significantly raising its 2026 holding target from 21,000 to 100,000 bitcoins.

The company also announced plans to raise $5.4 billion, aiming to hold up to 210,000 bitcoins by 2027. If the situation remains unchanged, Metaplanet will become the second largest enterprise-level bitcoin holder in the world.

Driven by this positive news, the company's stock price surged 9% in the Japanese market on Monday. According to Google Finance data, Metaplanet's stock price has increased by over 350% since the beginning of 2025.

Meanwhile, Strategy founder Michael Saylor hinted at a new round of bitcoin purchases in his routine weekend portfolio tracking tweet. In recent weeks, his weekend tweets have often foreshadowed further buying on Mondays.

Saylor wrote in the accompanying image: "In 21 years, you will wish you had bought more."

Simon Gerovich responded: "We are buying every day. But I am very clear that when looking back in the future, I will still feel that we should have acted faster."
