This yield shows how much more Bitcoin they hold compared to their shares in circulation. From January to March 2025, their BTC Yield was a solid 95.6%, and between April 1 to April 14, it was 6.5%, showing continued growth despite a shorter period. How They’re Funding the Buying Spree Metaplanet has been funding its massive Bitcoin purchases by teaming up with EVO FUND, a major investor. Instead of taking regular loans that require interest payments, the company has been issuing zero-coupon bonds, which don’t need interest to be paid. Along with that, EVO FUND gets the right to buy Metaplanet shares at the market price. Moreover, when they buy those shares, Metaplanet receives cash. That cash is then used to either repay the bonds or buy more Bitcoin. Between January and March 2025, Metaplanet rolled out several rounds of these bonds worth 2 to 4 billion yen each, all to support its ongoing Bitcoin investment strategy. .article-inside-link { margin-left: 0 !important; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; border-left: 0; border-right: 0; padding: 10px 0; text-align: left; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li { font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; font-weight: 600; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0; display: inline-block; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li:last-child { display: none; } Also Read : Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP Price Prediction: Will BTC, ETH, and XRP See a Bullish Week Ahead? , Aggressive Expansion With Minimal Dilution Despite issuing millions of shares, Metaplanet claims it’s carefully managing dilution, which means shareholders aren’t losing too much ownership percentage in the company. The company uses a calculation of “Bitcoin per fully diluted share” to show that each share is becoming more valuable in terms of Bitcoin. The Bigger Picture Metaplanet is following the playbook of U.S.-based Strategy , aggressively turning its treasury into a Bitcoin reserve. By mixing creative finance and strategic share issuance, it’s doubling down on Bitcoin as a long-term asset. With Japan’s growing crypto interest , Metaplanet is positioning itself as a corporate BTC pioneer in Asia. .article_register_shortcode { padding: 18px 24px; border-radius: 8px; display: flex; align-items: center; margin: 6px 0 22px; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; background: linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 0%, rgba(0, 82, 204, 0.1) 100%); } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { color: #000000; font-weight: 600; font-size: 20px; line-height: 22px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 span { color: #0052CC; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; color: #171717B2; margin-top: 4px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body{ padding-right: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: right; } .article_register_shortcode .primary-button img{ vertical-align: middle; width: 20px; margin: 0; display: inline-block; } @media (min-width: 581px) and (max-width: 991px) { .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { margin-bottom: 0; } } @media (max-width: 580px) { .article_register_shortcode { display: block; padding: 20px; } .article_register_shortcode img { max-width: 50px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { font-size: 16px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body { margin-left: 0px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: unset; } .article_register_shortcode .secondary-button { margin-bottom: 0; } } Never Miss a Beat in the Crypto World!
