Metaplanet adds 4,279 BTC in Q4 as it targets 1% of total Bitcoin supply by 2027

After a brief pause in the previous quarter, Metaplanet acquired over 4,000 BTC in the final stretch of 2025, even as Bitcoin’s price remained under pressure from broader market conditions. According to a Dec. 30 update from Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich, the company added 4,279 BTC during Q4 2025 for an investment of approximately $451 million. Its average buying price for this period was roughly $105,412 per Bitcoin, which is significantly higher than where the flagship crypto is currently trading. Metaplanet, also known as Asia’s MicroStrategy, currently ranks as the fourth largest publicly disclosed corporate holder of Bitcoin, with its total holdings now standing at 35,102 BTC. So far, the company has spent close to $3.78 billion on its Bitcoin treasury, with an average acquisition cost of $107,606 per coin. In terms of “BTC Yield,” a metric the company uses to gauge performance adjusted for share dilution, the results have been striking. Metaplanet posted a yield of 11.9% for Q4 and 568.2% year-to-date for 2025. By 2027, Metaplanet hopes to accumulate a total of 210,000 BTC, which would place approximately 1% of Bitcoin’s fixed supply under the company’s control. Since announcing its pivot from the hotel business in early 2024, Metaplanet has steadily worked toward this goal using available cash flow and financial instruments such as zero-interest bonds and preferred share offerings. Metaplanet to accelerate Bitcoin buys While it has already surpassed its original 2025 goal of acquiring 10,000 BTC, the long-term target remains a challenging one for now. To help accelerate progress, Metaplanet recently held an Extraordinary General Meeting earlier this month, during which shareholders approved five proposals to overhaul the company’s capital structure. The firm plans to issue new Class A and Class B preferred shares as a core funding mechanism, with features like floating-rate or fixed quarterly dividends that are expected to appeal to yield-seeking investors, both domestic and international, especially in Japan’s persistently low interest rate environment. The board also received authorisation to increase the number of preferred shares and shift capital stock into capital surplus, giving the company greater flexibility for dividend payments and share buybacks without significantly diluting common shareholders . Last month, the company secured an additional $130 million loan through a Bitcoin-backed credit facility to support future Bitcoin purchases and income-generating activities tied to the firm’s treasury operations. Shares down as Bitcoin struggles In the meantime, Metaplanet shares have struggled , falling sharply throughout December and currently sitting more than 75% lower over the past six months. The recent downturn in stock prices appears closely linked to Bitcoin’s own lacklustre performance during the month, with BTC slipping below key support levels as market sentiment remains risk-averse .
