Metaplanet issued ¥2B in 0% bonds, fully allocated to EVO FUND, to acquire more Bitcoin.
Bitcoin holdings reached 3,350 BTC after a March purchase of 150 BTC at ¥12.57M ($80K) per BTC.
Metaplanet has launched its 10th Series of Ordinary Bonds in the amount of ¥2 billion ($13.33 million) to boost its Bitcoin holdings. The company submitted the details of the issuance on March 31, which states that the bonds are due on September 30, 2025. The company said that the issuance will not attract any interest and that the funds raised from the same will be used to buy more BTC.
EVO FUND received the full allocation of this bond issuance, reinforcing the firm’s Bitcoin acquisition strategy. This development follows Metaplanet’s continued efforts to strengthen its balance sheet with more Bitcoin reserves. The company previously announced it would rely on structured bond sales to increase its BTC exposure over time.
Company Adds 150 BTC in March, Holdings Reach 3,350 BTC
On March 24, Metaplanet added 150 Bitcoin to its corporate treasury at an average price of ¥12.57 million per BTC. At current exchange rates, this places the average cost per Bitcoin at approximately $80,000. The new purchase raised the company’s total holdings to 3,350 BTC.
Metaplanet has now spent ¥42.22 billion ($270 million) on Bitcoin since it formally adopted it as a key asset in 2024. This makes the firm the biggest Bitcoin staker in the Asian market by volume. The financial reports show stability in the company’s buying habits, which shows that it has been accumulating Bitcoins in the long term.
In Q4 2024, Bitcoin Yield increased by 309.8% which signifies its exponential growth to outstanding shares. In Q1 2025, the metric currently stands at 68.3%, showing steady performance. The Bitcoin Yield metric is a key measurement the firm uses to assess BTC growth in relation to its equity structure. These figures indicate how quickly the company is expanding its Bitcoin base without diluting shareholder positions excessively.
