Metaplanet has no intention of giving up anytime soon! The Tokyo-listed business recently acquired an additional 780 BTC for $92.5 million, demonstrating its continued commitment to Bitcoin. I don't know what shouts confidence more than that.

Metaplanet purchased these coins at an average price of $118,622 per Bitcoin, as stated in their disclosure on Monday. With this most recent acquisition, the company now has 17,132 BTC in total, which is worth an incredible $2 billion at today's exchange rate. What a sizable Bitcoin holding.
The CEO of Metaplanet, Simon Gerovich, confirmed on X that their average total Bitcoin purchase is $101,030 per coin. Indeed, according to data from Bitcointreasuries, Metaplanet has been acquiring Bitcoin at an exponential rate, ranking as the seventh-largest public corporate Bitcoin holder worldwide.

The Audacious Bitcoin Strategy of Metaplanet
The worst part is this: Being a significant player in the Bitcoin game isn't enough for Metaplanet. They have even more ambitious objectives in mind. By the end of 2027, they hope to have more than 210,000 BTC, which would represent 1% of the entire Bitcoin supply. Too ambitious? You wager. That kind of vision, however, is what distinguishes the brave from the rest.
Metaplanet's Bitcoin-focused company has been making a ton of money, so it appears that their approach is working. Revenue for the company increased 42.4% from the previous year to almost 1.1 billion yen ($7.6 million) in Q2. People, perhaps it's time to take notes.
Despite a slight decline (16.3%) over the previous month, Metaplanet's stock surged 5.6% to 1,247 yen ($8.4) at noon on Monday. However, we shouldn't become overly fixated on temporary decreases. So far this year, the stock has risen an impressive 258.3%.
At $119,267, Bitcoin itself has increased by 0.9% over the past day.
Therefore, Metaplanet is firmly in the bullish camp and is placing large bets on the future of Bitcoin, despite the market's ups and downs. They appear to be long-term players, and I wouldn't wager against them.
