Metaplanet Expands Bitcoin Treasury in Q2

Metaplanet, widely regarded as Japan’s equivalent of Strategy due to its Bitcoin-focused corporate treasury model, announced that it purchased 2,823 Bitcoin during the second quarter of 2026 for approximately JPY 35.89 billion, or about $221 million.

The latest acquisition increased the company’s Bitcoin holdings from 40,177 BTC at the end of the first quarter to 43,000 BTC as of June 30. Across its entire treasury, Metaplanet reported an average acquisition cost of approximately JPY 15.33 million per Bitcoin.

Metaplanet now holds 43,000 BTC ($2.6B), with total debt and prefs at 23% of BTC NAV.

Commenting on the latest milestone, the company said:

“The balance sheet is robust, the capital channels are being built, and the asset we exist to accumulate is on sale.”

Alongside the Bitcoin treasury update, Metaplanet also published its Q2 FY2026 results for its Bitcoin Income Generation Business. The update highlighted the company’s ongoing efforts to generate revenue from Bitcoin-related activities while continuing to expand its corporate Bitcoin treasury.

The Bitcoin Income Generation Business complements Metaplanet’s long-term treasury strategy by creating additional income streams tied to its Bitcoin-focused operations. The quarterly results were released alongside the company’s second-quarter treasury disclosure, providing investors with an update on both its operational performance and Bitcoin accumulation strategy.

Strategy Continues Bitcoin Buying as Metaplanet Expands Treasury

Metaplanet’s latest Bitcoin purchase also comes shortly after Strategy expanded its own treasury by acquiring an additional 520 BTC in late June, reinforcing Michael Saylor’s long-term accumulation strategy even as the company adjusted its broader capital management framework.

In a separate development, Strategy recently introduced its Digital Credit Capital Framework, authorizing potential Bitcoin sales, share buybacks, dividends and an expanded cash reserve to strengthen its balance sheet while maintaining Bitcoin as its primary treasury reserve asset. The framework reflects a shift toward more active capital management without changing the company’s long-term commitment to Bitcoin.

Metaplanet’s continued accumulation highlights how Saylor’s corporate Bitcoin treasury model has influenced publicly listed companies beyond the United States. The approach has gained wider recognition across the industry, with Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse recently acknowledging that Strategy’s Bitcoin treasury strategy has become a model studied by other public companies considering Bitcoin as a balance-sheet asset.

Metaplanet’s latest purchase has strengthened its position as one of the world’s largest public corporate Bitcoin holders. According to BitcoinTreasuries, the company now ranks as the third-largest public Bitcoin treasury company with 43,000 BTC. Only Strategy, with 847,363 BTC, and Twenty One Capital, with 43,514 BTC, hold larger Bitcoin treasuries among publicly listed companies, placing Metaplanet among the global leaders in corporate Bitcoin adoption.

The latest accumulation further narrows the gap with the second-ranked company, highlighting the pace at which Metaplanet has expanded its Bitcoin reserves through its Strategy-inspired treasury model.
