What to know:
- Metaplanet targets holding 210,000 BTC by end of 2027, leveraging U.S. financial infrastructure for efficient large-scale acquisition.
- Funds raised via stock acquisition rights will be fully allocated to bitcoin purchases, with minimal short-term financial impact expected.
Metaplanet's (3350) board of directors has approved a capital injection of up to $5 billion for its U.S. subsidiary, Metaplanet Treasury Corp, in a bid to speed up its bitcoin acquisition strategy.

The contribution is expected to significantly accelerate the implementation of its “555 million plan,” disclosed earlier on June 6, the company said in a statement.
Metaplanet’s strategic objective is to accumulate up to 210,000 BTC by the end of 2027, leveraging the deep capital markets and advanced institutional infrastructure in the U.S. to optimize acquisition and management processes.
This U.S. expansion aligns with the company’s broader vision to establish a globally integrated treasury model that supports shareholder value, improves treasury yield efficiency and strengthens its leadership in bitcoin capital markets.
The funding for this contribution will come from exercising the 20th to 22nd series of stock acquisition rights, and all proceeds will be directed toward additional bitcoin purchases. Importantly, there is no change to the previously disclosed intended use of funds.
The financial impact on the company’s current fiscal year results is expected to be minimal, but Metaplanet has committed to promptly disclosing any material developments.
Shares of the Tokyo-listed Metaplanet, the eighth largest corporate holder of bitcoin with 11,111 BTC, closed 7% lower on Tuesday.
