With an average acquisition cost of just ¥13.27 million per coin, MetaPlanet is now Asia’s largest corporate holder of Bitcoin and ranks 11th globally, according to BitcoinTreasuries.

While MicroStrategy is often seen as the leader in corporate Bitcoin adoption, MetaPlanet is catching up quickly and outperforming. The company achieved a 2x return on its Bitcoin position in just three months, whereas MicroStrategy took 19 months to reach similar gains.

MetaPlanet isn’t slowing down. The company recently announced a plan to raise $25 million to further grow its Bitcoin reserves. Unlike MicroStrategy’s more structured approach, MetaPlanet is betting big and fast on BTC, positioning itself as a high-leverage crypto asset play.
