Metaplanet Bitcoin Plan Boosts Shares

πŸ“° Metaplanet Bitcoin plan to raise $5.4 billion for its treasury sent its Tokyo-listed shares soaring at the open on June 9, underlining growing institutional appetite for corporate crypto exposure.

Metaplanet Bitcoin Plan Boosts SharesπŸ“ˆ Metaplanet Bitcoin shares (3350 T) jumped over 12 % to 1,505 yen ($10.42) at market open, before peaking at 1,641 yen ($11.36)β€”a 22 % intraday surgeβ€”as investors reacted to the ambitious acquisition strategy.

πŸ’Ό Metaplanet Bitcoin updated its stock acquisition rights program on June 6, boosting its target from 21,000 BTC to 210,000 BTC by end-2027β€”a tenfold increase designed to establish it as a leading corporate holder of the asset.

πŸ“Š Metaplanet Bitcoin currently holds 8,888 BTC following its latest acquisition of 1,088 BTC on June 2, and plans to accumulate 100,000 BTC by end-2026 as part of its so-called β€œ555 million plan,” which envisages buying 201,112 BTC through 2027 at a total cost exceeding $21 billion.

🏦 Metaplanet Bitcoin’s funding will come via what the company describes as Japan’s largest stock-warrant issuance, enabling it to raise roughly $5.4 billion in equity capital to underwrite its crypto-treasury expansion.

πŸ₯‡ If Metaplanet Bitcoin successfully executes its strategy, it would become the second-largest public corporate Bitcoin holderβ€”trailing only MicroStrategy (NASDAQ: MSTR)β€”shifting the balance of power among crypto-treasury companies.

🌐 The Metaplanet Bitcoin move reflects a broader corporate trend: public companies now hold over 3 million BTC worth $342 billion, accounting for roughly 3.2 % of the total supply, as firms seek to hedge inflation and embrace digital assets.

πŸ” Recent entrants into corporate Bitcoin treasuries include South Korea’s K Wave Media on June 4, France’s Blockchain Group (whose shares jumped 225 % post-announcement), and Indonesia’s DigiAsia Corp, which saw a 91 % rally after unveiling its own $100 million BTC plan.

πŸ“‰ Not all corporate Bitcoin plans have sparked ralliesβ€”Norwegian brokerage K33 saw its shares dip 1.96 % after announcing intent to buy BTCβ€”but investor sentiment remains broadly favorable toward companies with long-term crypto strategies.

πŸš€ Metaplanet Bitcoin’s stock performance this week (up 24 % over five trading days) underscores investor confidence in bold, multi-year crypto-treasury strategies and may inspire further corporate bids to accumulate Bitcoin as part of treasury diversification.
