Funding and Growth Strategy
To support its ambitious Bitcoin (BTC) accumulation strategy, Metaplanet has been fundraising through a combination of stock and bond issuances. Since January, the company has issued 21 million shares in five tranches as part of its “210 Million Plan”.
To date, it has successfully raised over ¥35 billion, which covers approximately 42% of the total planned share issuance. In addition, Metaplanet has made early repayments of several bond series, including the 9th Series, which has been repaid ahead of schedule.

Metrics and Future Plans
Metaplanet uses the BTC Yield metric to track the effectiveness of its treasury strategy. This metric measures the growth of Bitcoin (BTC) holdings relative to the number of fully issued shares.
This metric jumped by 309.8% in the fourth quarter of 2024 and continued to grow by 95.6% in the first quarter of 2025. With these achievements, Metaplanet plans to collect more than 10,000 Bitcoin (BTC) by the end of 2025 and aims to reach 21,000 Bitcoin (BTC) by 2026.
This strategy is expected to strengthen Metaplanet’s position as a market leader in crypto asset ownership in Asia.
