Metaplanet made the third BTC purchase in April 2025
Metaplanet raised $ 13.3 million via bonds to buy additional bitcoin. Following this month’s purchases, the stock market investment company is now classified as the tenth greatest public BTC holder in the world and the largest in Asia.
This is the third purchase of Metaplanet Bitcoin this month, despite the continuous volatility of the market motivated by American prices and wider pessimism around price trends.
The CEO of Metaplanet also announced that the investment company had “reached BTC return of 119.3% YTD 2025”. BTC renders is a personalized measure that the company uses to follow how its strategy works. It shows the amount of bitcoin growing for each entirely diluted share.

Bitcoin performance
Recently, Bitcoin has outlined American actions in the midst of market pressures linked to current prices. During the first week of April 2025, the volatility made of Bitcoin was 43.86, less than the 47.29 of S&P 500 and 51.26 of the Nasdaq 100.
Given this relative stability and this high performance, it is clear why more companies are in common in Bitcoin, both as a strategic asset and coverage against the depreciation of fiduciary currencies.
