Metaplanet’s Bitcoin Gambit: $451M Spent in Q4 2025!

The esteemed Japanese Bitcoin treasury company, Metaplanet, has lately made a most notable announcement, declaring their acquisition of 4,279 BTC during the fourth quarter of 2025. 📉 A sum of $451 million was expended, a figure that would make even the most frugal of Regency-era ladies gasp.

Metaplanet Spent $451 Million On Bitcoin In Q4 2025

As revealed by the company’s CEO, Simon Gerovich, in a new X post, Metaplanet partook in a fresh accumulation of Bitcoin during Q4 2025. The firm added 4,279 BTC at an average price of $105,412, a sum that would surely have sent Mr. Darcy into a fit of consternation. 🤯 The last such purchase occurred in September, with two sizable buys of over 5,000 tokens each-though one might question the wisdom of such a venture when the market is as fickle as a society belle’s affections.

About a week post-purchase, Bitcoin surged past $126,000, a peak that has since been eclipsed by a notable drawdown. 🌪️ One might surmise that Metaplanet, ever the prudent investor, chose to remain silent until the year’s end, lest their fortunes be exposed to the prying eyes of the market.

Indeed, the firm’s holdings have grown significantly, from 30,823 BTC to 35,102 BTC. Yet, the value of these tokens has dwindled to $376.26 million, a loss that would surely have the Dashwood sisters weeping into their handkerchiefs. 🧥

The Q4 2025 acquisition, while ambitious, has not spared Metaplanet from the throes of financial distress. With a cost basis of $107,606 per token, their total investment now stands at $3.78 billion-a sum that would make even the most enterprising of merchants blush. 🤭

Currently, Metaplanet ranks as the fourth-largest corporate Bitcoin holder, though they remain 8,000 BTC behind Twenty One Capital. One wonders if Simon’s company will soon embark on another spree to close the gap. 🧐

Meanwhile, Strategy, the OG treasury firm, boasts a staggering 672,497 BTC, a figure that would make even the most confident of investors feel small. 🦄

Unlike Metaplanet, the Michael Saylor-led company continues to announce purchases with the regularity of a well-timed ball. Their latest move-a purchase of 1,229 BTC-has surely left their rivals in a state of envious dismay. 🙃

BTC Price

At present, Bitcoin hovers around $88,000, a price unchanged from a week prior. A testament to the market’s steadfastness-or perhaps its utter indifference. 🕰️
