Metaplanet, often called “Japan’s Strategy” for its aggressive Bitcoin treasury strategy, on Thursday, announced it had stacked another 2,823 BTC during Q2 2026, despite the market rout that saw the premier cryptocurrency hit its yearly low.
Metaplanet continues heavy BTC accumulation
In a statement released on Thursday, the firm disclosed that following its latest BTC acquisition, its total holdings have now ballooned to 43,000 coins. According to the official disclosure, the company spent almost $222 million (35.9 Japanese yen) to buy BTC over the past 3 months.
The average purchasing price stood at roughly $78,608 per BTC – significantly higher than the digital asset’s current market price of around $61,000. Meanwhile, the total purchase cost of Metaplanet’s BTC holdings hovers around $4.07 billion, translating to approximately $94,792 per BTC.
It is worth highlighting that during Q2 2026, Metaplanet also generated revenue worth almost $11 million from its flagship Bitcoin Income Generation program. For the uninitiated, the program leverages BTC options for additional returns.
On a quarter-over-quarter basis, it appears that Metaplanet’s rate of acquiring BTC is seeing some slowdown. For instance, the firm bought 17,473 BTC in Q3 2025, 4,279 BTC in Q4 2025, and 5,075 BTC in Q1 2026.
Metaplanet has shared its ambitious target of holding 100,000 BTC on its balance sheet by the end of 2026, and 210,000 BTC by the end of 2027 – effectively controlling 1 percent of the digital asset’s hard supply of 21 million units.
Following Thursday’s disclosure, Metaplanet’s stock jumped to 207 yen ($1.28), recording an increase of 3.5 percent in price. That said, on a year-to-date basis, the stock is down a whopping 48.89 percent.
Metaplanet all-in on BTC
It should be recalled that on June 12, Metaplanet announced plans to acquire Tokyo-based Siibo Securities for roughly $13.1 million. The acquisition was largely seen as a move to develop BTC-based yield products to investors in Japan.
Even earlier, on April 24, the firm had raised as much as $50 million in zero-interest bonds to expand its BTC holdings. If Metaplanet keeps up its current pace of BTC purchases, it is likely to accomplish the 100,000 BTC target by year end.
