Closing the first quarter of 2026, the Japanese firm Metaplanet announced that its institutional Bitcoin reserve reached 40,177 BTC. Despite this operational milestone, which positions it as the leading public crypto treasury outside the U.S., the company reported an accounting loss of $728 million. This figure is primarily due to impairment adjustments on non-monetary assets caused by the digital asset’s price fluctuations during the analyzed period.
The strategic impact of this accumulation is remarkable: Metaplanet aggressively utilized capital markets to generate more than $336 million for the purchase of “sats.” Although financial results reflect volatility due to mark-to-market valuation, operating income grew by 251% year-on-year, demonstrating that its business model based on the Bitcoin standard continues to gain institutional traction in the Asian market.
The company reaffirms its commitment to long-term accumulation, keeping its annual revenue projections unchanged. The next step for Metaplanet will be to strengthen its capital structure while Bitcoin seeks stability above $80,000.
