Metaplanet invests $5 billion to expand its Bitcoin asset allocation business in the United States.

Japanese listed company Metaplanet Inc. announced that its board of directors has approved a capital injection of up to $5 billion into its wholly-owned subsidiary Metaplanet Treasury Corp. in the United States, marking a new phase in the company's global Bitcoin financial strategy.

Expansion strategy launched: advancing global Bitcoin布局 with the United States as the core

Metaplanet announced on May 1st of this year the establishment of Metaplanet Treasury Corp. located in Florida, serving as its overseas base for Bitcoin asset management. This additional funding is aimed at further implementing its global expansion blueprint, particularly to enhance asset allocation efficiency and scale in the mature capital markets of the United States. The company emphasizes that the U.S., as a global financial hub, offers an ideal system and market environment to support its large-scale Bitcoin purchase and management needs.

The "555 Million Plan" will be fully launched.

Metaplanet's recent capital increase will also inject resources into the "555 Million Plan" announced on June 6. This plan symbolizes the company's strong commitment to a long-term holding strategy for Bitcoin — with the goal of accumulating 210,000 Bitcoins by the end of 2027.

This project is not only a milestone in asset management, but also marks a key transformation of Metaplanet from a local Bitcoin pioneer in Japan to a global asset management company.

The sources of fundraising and the use of funds are clear and transparent.

According to the announcement, the funds of up to $5 billion will be raised primarily through the exercise of share subscription rights issued in the 20th to 22nd offering. Metaplanet has made it clear that all funds will be earmarked for further Bitcoin purchases and will not be used for any other purpose. The company emphasized that this move will help improve the efficiency of asset income and further enhance the long-term value of shareholders.

Metaplanet stated that despite the substantial scale of investment, the impact on the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year 2025 is expected to be limited. Any significant developments will be announced promptly as required.
