Read more: Metaplanet Expands Bitcoin Holdings With $6.9M New Purchase
The milestone is realized with the firm’s continuous aggressive buying spree into the cryptocurrency market this month, October, from its Tokyo headquarters.
On October 22, Metaplanet announced that it had raised an additional 10 billion Japanese yen, approximately $66 million, to add to its Bitcoin buying. A week later, it was disclosed that the company had purchased 156.78 BTC for approximately 1.6 billion yen, or $10.4 million, in value, which is 60% higher compared to its last purchase this month.
This latest purchase puts Metaplanet Bitcoin investment at 1,108 BTC, which is approximately $69 million. Such huge growth has seen several purchases in the last weeks, with over 600 BTC being bought.
It all started on October 1, when Metaplanet bought 107 BTC for 1 billion yen ($6.6 million) at an average price of $61,932 per Bitcoin. Soon after, on October 7, the firm added another 108 BTC for about $6.7 million.
However, while the Metaplanet Bitcoin investment remains a fraction of what MicroStrategy holds, 252,000 BTC, the company is fast cementing its status as a mainstay in the global landscape of Bitcoin adoption. With continued portfolio expansion, Metaplanet positions itself for further growth in the ever-changing cryptocurrency frontier.
