Corporate interest in Bitcoin continues to intensify—and few are moving as swiftly and strategically as Metaplanet. The Japanese investment firm has made another bold move in its mission to accumulate massive crypto holdings. But this isn’t just another bond issue; it’s a clear signal of long-term intent and global expansion.
Zero-Interest Bonds, One Clear Target: 10,000 BTC
On May 29, Metaplanet announced the issuance of $21 million in zero-interest bonds to Evo Fund, just a day after securing $50 million in a separate funding round. Each bond carries a face value of $525,000 and matures on November 28, 2025. No interest is attached, allowing the firm to borrow without additional cost.

This back-to-back funding brings Metaplanet‘s total 2025 capital raises to $135.2 million. The company’s goal? To reach 10,000 Bitcoin holdings by year-end. Currently, it holds around 7,800 BTC, placing it 11th among global corporate holders.
US Expansion and GameStop Joins the Race
On May 1, Metaplanet launched a wholly owned subsidiary—Metaplanet Treasury—in Florida, aiming to raise up to $250 million from US capital markets. This move strengthens its global footprint and signals confidence in the US crypto space.
In March, Eric Trump, son of former President Donald Trump, joined Metaplanet‘s Strategic Advisory Board, adding political weight to its strategy.
Meanwhile, other corporations are following suit. On May 28, GameStop revealed its first Bitcoin acquisition, purchasing 4,710 BTC. This milestone underscores growing corporate appetite for crypto and potentially hints at broader adoption.
