Tokyo-listed investment firm Metaplanet has confirmed the acquisition of an additional 2,823 BTC during the second quarter of 2026, expanding one of the largest corporate Bitcoin treasuries in public markets. The purchase brings the company’s total holdings to 43,000 BTC.
The update was formalized through an official TDnet disclosure dated July 2, 2026. According to the filing, the latest tranche was acquired for approximately 35.88 billion yen, at an average price of about 12.71 million yen per Bitcoin.
Metaplanet Strengthens Its Corporate Bitcoin Position
With the latest acquisition, Metaplanet has reinforced its position as the third-largest corporate Bitcoin treasury globally. The company now trails only MicroStrategy and Twenty One Capital among publicly traded corporate Bitcoin holders, while surpassing other major institutional treasuries such as MARA Holdings.
The purchase also pushes Metaplanet deeper into a balance-sheet strategy centered on Bitcoin accumulation. Its total investment in the asset now stands at roughly 659.25 billion yen, reflecting the scale of the company’s long-term treasury commitment.
Beyond direct accumulation, Metaplanet reported progress in its Bitcoin Income Generation business, a segment that uses Bitcoin options to generate recurring cash flow. The company presents that activity as a way to reduce its effective acquisition cost while continuing to expand its treasury position.
Options Revenue Lowers Effective Acquisition Cost
For the second quarter, the Bitcoin Income Generation division produced approximately 1.75 billion yen in operating revenue. After accounting for that income, Metaplanet said its effective acquisition price for the quarter was reduced to about 12.09 million yen per BTC.
The company also reported a BTC Yield of 6.6% for the quarter ending June 30, 2026. That metric tracks the growth of Bitcoin holdings relative to outstanding shares and has become a central performance indicator for Metaplanet’s treasury strategy.
Some technical details remain absent from the available disclosure. The filing confirms aggregate purchase totals and fiscal impact, but it does not provide exact transaction timestamps for individual buys or direct on-chain verification for the newly acquired 2,823 BTC.
Metaplanet’s shares closed 3.5% higher at 207 yen on the Tokyo Stock Exchange following the announcement. For now, the update strengthens the company’s standing as a major corporate Bitcoin holder, while leaving wallet-level verification and purchase-by-purchase execution details outside the public record.
