Metaplanet restructured its finances in 2024 to support its Bitcoin strategy. The company consolidated shares 10-to-1 in June, completed a rights offering in August raising 10 billion yen, and secured 9.5 billion yen through bond sales in December.
The company’s Bitcoin yield — measuring Bitcoin holdings against total shares — increased from 42% to 310% in Q4 2024. Metaplanet formalized its Bitcoin Treasury Operations as an official business line on December 18.
Metaplanet’s aggressive expansion signals growing corporate interest in Bitcoin accumulation strategies as expectations rise for increased institutional adoption in 2025.
