Metaplanet Issues $21 Million in Zero-Interest Bonds to Expand Bitcoin Holdings

Japanese investment firm Metaplanet Inc. has announced the issuance of its 17th series of ordinary bonds, totaling $21 million, to fund additional Bitcoin purchases. These zero-interest bonds are scheduled for redemption on November 28, 2025, and were entirely acquired by the Cayman Islands-based investment firm Evo Fund, a consistent backer of Metaplanet's Bitcoin accumulation strategy.

This move is part of Metaplanet's aggressive approach to increasing its Bitcoin reserves. Earlier, the company issued $50 million in a new series of bonds, further emphasizing its commitment to Bitcoin as a strategic asset. 

According to data from BitcoinTreasuries.net, Metaplanet currently holds 7,800 BTC, valued at over $839 million, making it Asia's largest public corporate holder of Bitcoin and ranking 11th globally.

Metaplanet has set an ambitious target of holding 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025, reflecting its strong belief in Bitcoin's long-term value.

The company stated that the bond issuance is expected to have minimal impact on its consolidated financial results for 2025. Further developments will be disclosed as needed.
