Metaplanet Reports Strong Q1 Results Amid Market Volatility
Metaplanet ended the first quarter of 2025 with a reported quarterly-to-date return of 95.6%, far exceeding its internal monthly benchmark of 35%. Despite early April volatility in Bitcoin prices, the company has so far recorded a 12.1% return for the second quarter, positioning it to potentially meet or surpass its Q2 performance target by June.
The firm, which began aggressively accumulating BTC in 2024, has increasingly used Bitcoin as a core asset for long-term value storage. Company filings suggest that BTC acquisitions have been largely driven by investor capital and cash flow from business operations.
Strategy Increases BTC Holdings to Over 538,000
Meanwhile, Strategy disclosed that it acquired 6,556 Bitcoins between April 14 and April 20, spending $555 million at an average price of $84,785 per token. This followed a previous purchase of 3,459 BTC valued at approximately $286 million. The recent activity brings Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings to 538,200—more than 2.5% of the circulating global supply.
The firm financed the acquisitions through proceeds from its ongoing equity offerings. According to a filing released Monday, Strategy raised over $555 million via the sale of 1.7 million MSTR shares and more than 91,200 STRK shares. It also reported that it retains over $1.5 billion in MSTR and approximately $21 billion in STRK for potential future funding.
