Metaplanet Adds $170M in Bitcoin, Grows Holdings to 43,000 BTC

The Japanese firm, now ranked as the world’s third-largest publicly listed Bitcoin holder, also reported stronger revenue from its Bitcoin Income Generation business.

Metaplanet (3350) said it has acquired an additional 2,823 BTC worth about $170.7 million, lifting its total holdings to 43,000 BTC valued at roughly $2.6 billion.

The latest purchase further solidifies the Tokyo-listed company’s position as the third-largest public corporate Bitcoin holder, behind only Strategy (MSTR) and Twenty One Capital (XXI), according to Bitcoin Treasuries data.

Following the announcement, Metaplanet’s shares rose 3.5% to 207 yen ($1.28) on Thursday.

In addition to its Bitcoin accumulation, the company released second-quarter FY2026 results for its Bitcoin Income Generation segment, reporting around 1.75 billion yen ($10.85 million) in operating revenue for the quarter. This brought first-half revenue to approximately 4.72 billion yen.

Metaplanet generates income through Bitcoin options strategies while simultaneously increasing its BTC holdings. On a trailing 12-month basis, the segment produced about 11.4 billion yen in revenue.

The latest figures underscore Metaplanet’s dual approach of steadily accumulating Bitcoin while also building recurring cash flow through its income-generation strategy.
