With the latest purchase bringing its total holdings to 5,555 BTC, the company has now reached just over 55% of that target. To support this goal, Metaplanet also disclosed a second $25 million bond sale to EVO FUND, intended to finance additional Bitcoin purchases. This comes just days after a previous bond issuance of the same amount to the same buyer. The newly issued bonds, like the previous ones, are zero-coupon and will mature on November 6, the company stated on X. In addition, Metaplanet established Metaplanet Treasury Corp. earlier this year — a Miami-based subsidiary dedicated exclusively to BTC acquisition, backed by $250 million in operating capital. The company’s bold Bitcoin strategy appears to be yielding results. In today’s announcement on X, Gerovich also noted a BTC yield of 136.7% year-to-date in 2025.
