It’s another day and another Bitcoin announcement by Japanese firm Metaplanet. Ever since the firm announced its plans to increase its Bitcoin stash, all eyes in crypto have been on it. Today, Metaplanet announced that it is raising funds through an equity offering worth $5.4 billion to acquire more BTC. 

Metaplanet: Accelerated 2025-2027 Bitcoin Plan

Metaplanet has announced its Bitcoin Plan today and set an ambitious goal of acquiring 210,000 Bitcoins in the next two years. From being an investment firm that engages in hotel management operations in Japan, it has now grown into a “Bitcoin Treasury Company.”

Metaplanet currently holds 8,888 Bitcoins. This makes it the top Bitcoin holder in Asia. It set targets of acquiring 30,000 Bitcoins by the end of this year. And 100,000 BTC by the end of 2026 to achieve 1% of the total BTC supply. The firm enters the Bitcoin 1% Club by holding 210,000 Bitcoins by the end of 2027 with this plan. 

To put its Bitcoin buying plan into motion, Metaplanet has launched one of the largest equity raises in Asia for Bitcoin. It is planning to offer a total of 555 million shares via moving strike warrants and anticipates a capital raise worth $5.4 billion. 

Metaplanet to Climb Up the Top Bitcoin Holders List

As per Bitcoin Treasuries, Metaplanet is in 10th position in the list of top Bitcoin holders with 8,888 BTC holdings. Strategy is the top Bitcoin holder with the highest amount of Bitcoin, 580,250 BTC, as of Q2, 2025. US-based MARA, XXI, and Riot Platforms follow the Strategy with 49,311 BTC, 37,230 BTC, and 19,225 BTC, respectively. 

Galaxy Digital Holdings, CleanSpark, Tesla, Hut 8 Mining Group, and Coinbase Global stay ahead of Metaplent as per their present Bitcoin holdings. In case Metaplent succeeds in implementing its Bitcoin Plan, it would climb up the ladder and surpass all these companies to compete with Strategy. 

Bitcoin has proven its capability to be the best reserve asset time and again. Its substantial growth over the years makes it a hedge against inflation and the best alternative to fiat currencies. And the number of companies considering holding Bitcoin in their treasuries is increasing steadily.
