Tokyo-listed Metaplanet added 463 Bitcoin to its treasury on 4 Aug., paying about $53 million for the tokens. The latest purchase lifts the company’s total stash to 17,595 BTC, worth roughly $2 billion at prevailing prices. The move consolidates Metaplanet’s position as the seventh-largest publicly traded Bitcoin holder, according to industry data cited by crypto news outlet The Block.
