MicroStrategy Extends Bitcoin Buying Streak, Metaplanet Aims For 10,000 BTC War Chest
Jan 6, 2025 6:32 AM

Two major corporate Bitcoin holders, MicroStrategy Inc. ( MSTR ) and Japan-based Metaplanet, are set to expand their Bitcoin reserves significantly in 2025, highlighting their continued commitment to the cryptocurrency.

MicroStrategy ( MSTR ) on Monday announced the acquisition of 1,070 BTC for $101 million at an average price of $94,004 per Bitcoin.

This brings its total holdings to 447,470 Bitcoin acquired for ~$27.97 billion at ~$62,503 per Bitcoin.

The volume of the company’s recent purchases has tapered: while MicroStrategy ( MSTR ) on Dec. 9 announced having purchased 21,550 Bitcoin, the volume steadily declined each week to 2,138 Bitcoin on Dec. 30 and 1,070 Bitcoin on Monday.

MicroStrategy ( MSTR ) has plans to raise up to $2 billion through preferred stock offerings in the first quarter of 2025.

This capital will fund additional Bitcoin purchases as part of its “21/21 Plan,” which outlines a strategy to secure $21 billion in equity and $21 billion in fixed-income instruments over the next three years.

In Asia, Metaplanet, known for its leadership in Bitcoin holdings, has set an ambitious goal of acquiring 10,000 BTC in 2025, a move worth nearly $1 billion at current prices.

CEO Simon Gerovich emphasized the company's dual focus on increasing its reserves and advancing Bitcoin adoption both domestically and internationally.

"In 2025, we aim to expand our Bitcoin holdings to 10,000 BTC by utilizing the most accretive capital market tools available to us. Leverage our partnerships to advance Bitcoin adoption in Japan and globally," Gerovich shared in a post on X.

Metaplanet currently holds Bitcoin worth $175 million and has a market capitalization of $830 million.

The firm's focus extends beyond asset accumulation, as it aims to leverage partnerships to promote wider adoption of Bitcoin in Japan and on a global scale.

Both companies' plans underline the growing role of Bitcoin in corporate financial strategies, as businesses increasingly view the digital asset as a key component of their portfolios.
