The purchase announcement coincided with the day when the board of directors of Metaplanet approved the output of bonds for $ 210 million with a zero interest rate. So, the 18th series of bonds for Evo Fund will be repaid on December 12, 2025. Funds will go to further purchases of bitcoins.

This corresponds to the purpose of the company – to own 1% of the total bitcoins by 2027. Earlier we said that Metaplanet increased its goals. Now the company plans to own 30,000 BTC by 2025.

The goal for 2026 also increased from 21,000 BTC to 100,000 BTC. The company plans to purchase 210,000 BTC by the end of 2027, which will amount to 1% of the total supply of bitcoin in 21 million.

For this, Metaplanet plans to issue 555 million shares to attract $ 5.4 billion (¥ 770 billion).

Meanwhile, the demand for bitcoin from institutional investors is growing. Many companies use cryptocurrencies as a corporate reserve asset, and some have completely switched to its use as a treasury asset.
