Metaplanet Expands Bitcoin Holdings Again, Solidifies No. 4 Treasury Rank
The publicly traded Japanese firm Metaplanet disclosed Tuesday that it scooped up 4,279 BTC during the fourth quarter. The purchase comes on the heels of Strategy’s 1,229 BTC pickup announced Monday. Both the company and CEO Simon Gerovich took to X to break the news of Metaplanet’s latest buys.
Interestingly, at 3:30 p.m. EST Tuesday, Metaplanet’s holdings clocked in at just $3.09 billion, with BTC trading at $88,096 per coin. A price of $105,412 per coin sits 16.43% above the current spot level. Meanwhile, the dollar cost averaging (DAC) figure or average price of $107,606 stands 18.13% above today’s tape.
Of course, Metaplanet’s fourth-quarter buying spree likely wrapped up before BTC slipped below the $100,000 mark. The added coins further cement Metaplanet’s fourth-place standing among the world’s largest bitcoin treasury firms. Prior to the Q4 purchases, Metaplanet held 30,823 BTC, narrowly edging out Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company’s 30,021 BTC.

Metaplanet shares have slid more than 74% over the past six months, and the stock shed another 13% in just the last five days. Year to date (YTD), however, the picture looks far less grim. The company is still up roughly 8%. Taken together, the numbers paint a familiar picture: a bruised stock, a hefty bitcoin hoard worth less than the firm paid, but a long-term bet that hasn’t blinked.
While Metaplanet’s share price has taken its lumps, the company continues to stack BTC and defend its place near the top of the global bitcoin treasury leaderboard— volatility on the screen, conviction on the balance sheet.
