Metaplanet posts record $6M Q1 revenue fueled by Bitcoin gains.

Bitcoin makes up 88% of revenue, driving major shareholder growth.

Firm now holds 6,796 BTC, becoming Asia’s top Bitcoin treasury.

Tokyo-based hospitality and investment firm Metaplanet has announced a record-breaking Q1 2025 revenue, largely driven by its aggressive Bitcoin investment strategy. The company’s Q1 Earnings Report states that it achieved 877 million Japanese yen (around $6 million) in revenue, making it the strongest quarter for the company yet.

Metaplanet’s Revenue Soars 88% from Bitcoin Investments

Most of the company’s revenue which made up 88%, was due to digital assets, especially Bitcoin. This increase reflects how much money can be made when traditional sectors such as hospitality, adopt cryptocurrencies.

From the start of the year, Metaplanet has increased the size of its Bitcoin investments. Between January 1 and May 10, the company acquired almost four times as many Bitcoins as it held at the start which was 5,034 more. Therefore, a total of 6,796 BTC is held by Metaplanet now, making it the 11th largest public Bitcoin holder worldwide and the largest in Asia.

The company issued moving-strike warrants, which meant it did not set any specific price for the new shares it wanted to issue. At the beginning of May, 87% of the program had been accomplished, earning 76.6 billion yen ($524.8 million). Thanks to this money, the firm has reached 68% of its 10,000 BTC target.

The price per coin for its Bitcoins has averaged ¥13.27 million or approximately $90,929. Even with the fluctuating prices, the firm has still recorded impressive results. Their BTC yield increased by nearly 300% in the previous quarter and by Q1 2025 it stood at 95.6%. Metaplanet plans for a 232% yield for the entire year, with 35% expected in both Q3 and Q4.

In addition to money, investors flock to Metaplanet. In one year alone, the number of shareholders increased 500%, ending up at 64,000 by Q1 2025. This reveals investors are more confident in the company’s plans for cryptocurrencies.

Bitcoin Strategy Makes Metaplanet Top Crypto Treasury in Asia

The impact of this success is visible in the stock market. According to the latest data, the price of Metaplanet’s shares, 3350.T, has gone up by 70.91% since the beginning of the year. This increase in value proves that investors recognize the company’s position as a very early player in Bitcoin investment.

On May 12, 2025, Metaplanet stated in a public filing about investing in Bitcoin. The company bought a total of 1,241 BTC for ¥16.5 billion ($119 million), which they obtained at an average price of ¥14.85 million ($95,700) each. This means that the company’s total crypto assets are worth about $583 million or around ¥90.1 billion.

Last but not least, Metaplanet’s support for Bitcoin has increased its earnings and made it the top Bitcoin treasury firm in Asia. Metaplanet focused on Bitcoin, generated significant profits, and earned a reputation as a leading crypto-holding company in Asia. With investors trusting the company more and its shares increasing in value, traditional companies have more reasons to explore digital assets using the same approach. As Metaplanet continues to break new ground, its bold Bitcoin strategy may well redefine how legacy sectors approach digital finance.
