Japanese Metaplanet has strengthened its position as the third-largest corporate Bitcoin treasury through an aggressive accumulation strategy.
The ambitious digital asset accumulation program Metaplanet has reached a new stage: in the fourth quarter of last year, the company invested $451 million in Bitcoin purchases, at an average price of $105,412 per unit. These actions increased the company’s total reserve value to an impressive $3.78 billion, strengthening its position among leading corporate holders of crypto assets on the global stage.
Metaplanet’s financial results indicate a growing investor interest in companies focused on digital assets. The division specializing in derivatives operations and Bitcoin-related services reported revenue of $55 million, significantly exceeding analyst forecasts. This steady growth is reflected in the company’s stock price on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, where Metaplanet shares have risen 21% over the past five trading days.
The rise in stock prices coincided with a revival phase of Bitcoin, whose price climbed above the psychological mark of $93,000. This market movement demonstrates a strengthening link between digital treasury activities and the overall dynamics of the crypto market, although analysts warn of potential risks to the stability of such business models.
The long-term prospects of Metaplanet look ambitious: the company announced a plan to accumulate 210,000 Bitcoins by 2027, which will account for one percent of the total circulating supply. This target confirms the seriousness of management’s intentions to establish a third-place position among corporate holders of crypto assets.
The movement of the Japanese treasury has not gone unnoticed in the region. Companies Convano and Remixpoint have also increased their investments in Bitcoin-oriented projects, leading to a noticeable growth in their market capitalization. This phenomenon indicates the formation of a new trend among Japanese companies viewing digital assets as a strategic long-term development asset.
