The Japanese “Metilant” acquires 463 Bitcoin in a deal with 53.7 million dollars

The Japanese investment company metaplanet announced that it acquired 463 units of Bitcoin with a total value of $ 53.7 million, in a deal that was implemented today, Monday, August 4, 2025, at an average price of 115,895 dollars per unit.

With this deal, the company’s total property from Bitcoin rose to 17,595 units, its current market value is estimated at about $ 1.78 billion, making Metdelman the seventh largest company in the world in terms of possession of Bitcoin, and the first of its kind in Japan on the top ten list.

An ambitious expansion strategy

This step comes within a long -term strategic plan aimed at owning 1% of the total global supply of Bitcoin, equivalent to 210 thousand units by 2027, and the company has already started implementing this plan by issuing permanent favorite shares worth $ 3.73 billion, similar to the model adopted by the company “Strategy” led by Michael Sailor.

This financing mechanism is an effective way to collect capital without resorting to debts or affecting the rights of current shareholders, as it allows the company to allocate long -term resources to buy Bitcoin, while providing annual returns up to 6% according to market conditions.

Strong performance despite market fluctuations

Although the company’s shares decreased by 6.5% on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on Monday, the operating indicators remain positive, as the company recorded annual return on Bitcoin (BTC Yield) reached 459.2% since the beginning of the year, with an additional growth of 24.6% during the third quarter until the date of the deal.

The purchase timing was to take advantage of a 5% decrease in the Bitcoin price during the weekend, which reflects the company’s long -term value of the digital currency, despite the global economic challenges and the decline in institutional flows at the beginning of August.
