Metaplanet Buys $12.6M in Bitcoin After Tapping Eric Trump for Board

March 24, 2025 by Mutuma Maxwell

  • Metaplanet has purchased 150 Bitcoin worth approximately $12.6 million at an average price of $83,000 per coin.
  • The company now holds a total of 3,350 Bitcoin valued at around $270 million in total acquisition cost.
  • Metaplanet has appointed Eric Trump to its newly formed Strategic Advisory Committee.

Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has strengthened its Bitcoin reserves with a new acquisition of 150 BTC. The company’s acquisition of Bitcoin involved a total expense of ¥1.886 billion, which corresponded to around $12.1 million. This resulted in an average Bitcoin cost of ¥12.57 million or $83,000 per unit. The appointment of Eric Trump to a new committee serves as the strategic reason the firm bought Bitcoin.

Metaplanet’s total Bitcoin holdings have now reached 3,350 BTC, reflecting its aggressive digital asset accumulation strategy. All Bitcoin purchases made by the company amount to a total sum of ¥42.22 billion ($270 million). With the average acquisition price at around ¥12.60 million ($80,200), the firm maintains a focused and consistent entry strategy.

The firm displays ongoing support for Bitcoin through its recent treasury asset acquisition. It follows Metaplanet’s stated goal of acquiring 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025. The business continues its targeted target speed through its increased acquisition of 1,400 Bitcoin units throughout the current year.

Metaplanet Uses Innovative Financing to Avoid Traditional Debt

Metaplanet has relied on non-traditional financing methods to fund its ongoing Bitcoin purchases. The company employs two methods through EVO FUND stock acquisition rights and zero-coupon bond issuance while maintaining no interest-based financial commitments. The firm can boost its Bitcoin treasury holdings through this approach which does not require additional financial obligations.

In March 2025, Metaplanet redeemed ¥2 billion in bonds ahead of schedule, showing financial agility. The firm used its bond issuance to acquire additional funds amounting to ¥2 billion. The capital recycling plan allowed Metaplanet to maintain liquid capital while making Bitcoin acquisitions.

The firm expanded its treasury while preventing any negative impact on shareholder value or taking on permanent debt obligations. The financing strategy benefits operational adaptability while helping to achieve strategic business objectives. The organization keeps expanding its Bitcoin holdings by using controlled sustainable approaches.

Metaplanet tracks its performance using a unique metric called BTC Yield. Bitcoin holdings growth rate compares against the total number of extended shares a company issues. The company achieved a 309.8 percent increase in Bitcoin Yield performance during Q4 2024 and the current figure stands at 68.3 percent in Q1 2025.

The strong BTC Yield numbers demonstrate how the firm maintains control over their acquisitions while Bitcoin values increase. Investor confidence has steadily grown since the start of the acquisition strategy thus pushing the company’s share price to increase by more than 3,000%. Asia now recognizes the firm as its largest corporate owner of Bitcoin units.

Metaplanet’s consistent accumulation and financial discipline continue to attract market attention. Investors follow Bitcoin Exchange’s long-term growth with clarity through the transparent BTC Yield metric. The firm has declared strategic BTC growth to be its essential long-term priority.

Eric Trump Joins Strategic Advisory Committee Amid Crypto Push

Eric Trump joined the Strategic Advisory Committee as the first member of his current position at the company. His position as the son of US President Donald Trump secures both fame and crypto support for his role. His involvement aligns with Metaplanet’s goal of becoming a top global Bitcoin treasury company.

World Liberty Financial represents a family investment platform that operates under Trump’s leadership in the cryptocurrency marketplace. The company achieved its second token sale, which brought total funds to $550 million. Trump maintains investments in Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, and Sui.
