Japanese tech giant Metaplanet has made another bold move in the crypto market, withdrawing $100 million from its new $500 million credit line to buy more Bitcoin. This latest purchase reinforces Metaplanet’s growing reputation as “Asia’s MicroStrategy,” a title earned for its aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy.
While most global corporations are trimming crypto exposure amid Bitcoin’s dip below $100,000, Metaplanet is going in the opposite direction—betting big on a long-term rebound.
Bitcoin-Backed Loan Fuels Expansion
The company confirmed that the loan is fully backed by its existing Bitcoin reserves, reflecting strong confidence in the digital asset. The funds will be used to strengthen Metaplanet’s long-term Bitcoin accumulation strategy, as well as to expand its Bitcoin Income Generation initiative.
That initiative includes selling cash-secured put options and launching a $500 million share repurchase program, both designed to enhance shareholder value and diversify income streams tied to Bitcoin performance.
The “555 Million Plan”: Aiming for 210,000 BTC by 2027
As part of its ambitious “555 Million Plan,” Metaplanet aims to accumulate 210,000 BTC by 2027—nearly 1% of Bitcoin’s total supply. The company has already surpassed its 2025 goal, holding an impressive 30,823 BTC, making it the fourth-largest corporate Bitcoin holder worldwide.
With this strategic expansion, Metaplanet is positioning itself as Asia’s most powerful Bitcoin advocate, standing firm on its bullish outlook while other corporations hesitate. Its unwavering commitment to Bitcoin continues to draw global attention and could redefine the landscape of corporate crypto investment in the coming years.
