Metaplanet said it bought an additional 2,823 Bitcoin, taking its corporate treasury to 43,000 BTC. The company disclosed the purchase on July 2, and because the transaction took place on the first trading day of July, it was not included in June’s tally of public-company Bitcoin accumulation.

The Japanese firm has kept up an aggressive buying pace this year. In the first quarter of its fiscal 2026, it acquired 5,075 BTC for roughly $405 million, with an average purchase price of about $79,898 per Bitcoin, according to company disclosures. By the end of that quarter, holdings had already reached 40,177 BTC. Later purchases pushed the balance to the current level.

Holdings climb into the top tier of public companies

Data from BitcoinTreasuries.net shows public companies added nearly 9,000 BTC to their balance sheets in June alone. Strategy bought 3,625 BTC, Strive added 3,364 BTC, and MARA Holdings increased its reserves by 1,000 BTC. Metaplanet’s latest purchase sits outside those monthly figures, but its size places the company alongside the largest recent buyers and helped it move past MARA Holdings into third place globally among public companies by Bitcoin holdings.

Not every firm was adding exposure over the same period. Fold Holdings sold about 634 BTC, Nakamoto Inc sold 591 BTC, and Hive Digital sold 331 BTC. Metaplanet, by contrast, kept increasing Bitcoin as a treasury asset.

No warrant-driven share issuance in June

Metaplanet said it did not issue new shares through warrant exercises during June. The company currently has 947,300 outstanding warrants, convertible into 94.73 million shares. The exercise price for those warrants ranged from 220 yen to 295 yen last month, but none were exercised.

The company also carried out no share buybacks in the same period. Based on the disclosure, Metaplanet avoided any dilutive capital increase in June, while still keeping that option available for the future if needed.

Brokerage acquisition expands the finance push

Metaplanet���s strategy now stretches beyond accumulating Bitcoin. In June, it acquired Tokyo-based regulated brokerage Siiibo Securities for about 2.1 billion yen. The brokerage will be renamed Metaplanet Securities and folded into the company’s Project Nova initiative.

Project Nova is intended to develop Bitcoin-linked bonds, tokenized securities, and other digital-asset products aimed at institutional investors. The company also said Bitcoin-based revenue made up about 95% of its total revenue in fiscal 2025.

Financial results published in February showed fiscal 2025 revenue of 8.9 billion yen, up 738% year over year, while operating profit rose 1,694.5%. Even so, Metaplanet reported a 95 billion yen net loss because of 102.2 billion yen in unrealized Bitcoin valuation losses, which the report said did not affect cash flow.

As of July 2, Bitcoin was trading around $60,100. The report also cited a February disclosure showing Metaplanet’s average purchase price at $107,716 per BTC, leaving the company’s 43,000 BTC position with a large unrealized loss on paper.
