Metaplanet, a Tokyo -based company, has pushed the Bitcoin purchase target to be further than previous plans. As of June 6, the company owns 8,888 BTC. Now, he wants to carry 100,000 BTC by the end of 2026. This is a big leap of its old goal of 21000 BTC for the same date.
According to CEO, Simon Girovic, Metaplanet will export up to 555 million new shares to support this engine. The plan covers about 18 months and will require the purchase of approximately 91,112 from BTC.
Depending on the reports, the previous goal of Metaplanet was to own 21000 BTC by late 2026. Now, GEROVICH says they will aim to 100,000 BTC instead. The company has already announced the purchase of 1,088 BTC on June 2, reached 8,888 BTC.

Reasons behind the aggressive step
Jerovic referred to the transformations in the global economy. He says the capital leaves the assets that are once “safe”, such as long -term government bonds. It is noted that gold has reached record levels against major currencies.

In an environment where sovereign debt is climbing, trade policies are in a state of flow, bitcoin scarcity and easy transfer attract attention. According to him, these factors make bitcoin a possible place for money to flow when other assets feel shake. Whether it is true or not, Metaplanet is betting on the attractiveness of Bitcoin.
Issuing shares to finance bitcoin purchases
To collect money for these purchases, Metaplanet will pay 555 million additional shares to the market. Under the previous “21 million” plan, the company has already had 210 million shares lining up to buy bitcoin.
The addition of 555 million shares represents an enormous reduction in shares. The shareholders who supported the initial plan may be hesitant if Bitcoin stumbles. But if the value of Bitcoin increases, these new shares may also rise. It is a great gamble with risks on both sides – brand moves and shareholders.
It aims at 1 % club
GEROVICH has also developed a plan until 2027. By December 31, 2027, Metapanet hopes to get more than 210,000 BTC. This would put them in the so -called “1 % Club”, which means that they will carry at least 1 % of the maximum supply of Bitcoin 21 million.
According to reports from Standard Charterd Bank, 61 out of 124 public companies carry Bitcoin possess 3.2 % of the total offer.
Metaplanet’s attempt to seize 1 % of itself between public companies will emerge. But collecting that many coins will require an accurate timing, especially since large purchases can push prices up.
