The company is highlighting a special metric called BTC Yield to measure the success of its Bitcoin accumulation strategy. This yield compares the company’s net income available to common shareholders with its shares in circulation.

For January to March 2025, their BTC Yield stands at 95.6%, while between April 1 to April 14, it was 6.5%, showcasing continued growth despite a shorter period.

How They’re Funding the Massive Buying Spree

To fund its massive Bitcoin purchases, Metaplanet has been 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.

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.
