by

What to know:

  • In a most audacious display of financial prowess, Metaplanet has procured 319 BTC at a rather princely sum of ¥11,845,786 ($83,147) per coin. One must wonder if they consulted a fortune teller before this venture! 🤑
  • The esteemed BTC Yield remains a pivotal performance metric, with the yield for the first quarter of 2025 standing at a remarkable 95.6% and a quarter-to-date figure of 6.5%. Clearly, the digital assets are flourishing like a well-tended garden! 🌱

Metaplanet Inc. (3350), in a move that would make even Mr. Darcy raise an eyebrow, has added 319 bitcoin (BTC) to its treasury. This latest acquisition was made at an average price of $83,147 per coin, which, I daresay, is not a trifling sum! 💰

This latest purchase elevates the company’s total bitcoin holdings to a staggering 4,525 BTC, with an aggregate cost basis of $408.1 million and an average acquisition price of $90,194. One might think they are hoarding gold bars instead of mere digital currency! 🏦

This strategic maneuver is but a fragment of Metaplanet’s grander scheme, initiated in December 2024, to utilize digital assets in a manner most befitting to enhance shareholder value. A noble pursuit, indeed! 🎩

The company, in its infinite wisdom, assesses its performance through the lens of BTC Yield, a measure of bitcoin holding growth relative to shares outstanding. For the first quarter of 2025, its BTC yield reached an impressive 95.6%, with a year-to-date figure of 6.5% as of this very day, April 14. How delightful! 📈

These acquisitions are buoyed by a flurry of dynamic capital market activities, including bond issuances and stock acquisition rights, allowing Metaplanet to amass substantial funds whilst minimizing dilution. In total, approximately 41.7% of the company’s ambitious “210 million plan” has been executed. A feat worthy of a round of applause! 👏
