<p>Metaplanet’s journey into Bitcoin began in May, with the company making steady acquisitions. In August, it took a 1 billion yen loan from MMXX Ventures Limited, fueling its BTC <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/metaplanet-raises-66-2m-for-bitcoin-expansion-despite-market-volatility/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">acquisition strategy</a>. Since then, it has conducted 11 rounds of Stock Acquisition Rights, raising 10 billion yen to bolster its BTC purchases.</p>  
<p>In just this month, Metaplanet <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/metaplanet-adds-106-bitcoin-to-reserves-stock-triples/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">purchased</a> more than 600 BTC. This brings their total BTC holdings to 1,018.17 BTC. The company has opted to hold onto Bitcoin as a long-term investment. Its goal is to provide steady profits for its investors.</p>  
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-new-btc-yield-metric"><strong>New BTC Yield Metric</strong></h2>  
<p>Metaplanet recently introduced a new performance metric called the BTC Yield. This <a href="https://contents.xj-storage.jp/xcontents/33500/47b9752b/1682/4a42/898b/55628cd21a47/140120241024502484.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">indicator</a> offers insight into the company’s returns from its Bitcoin investments. CEO Simon Gerovich emphasized that this metric aligns with industry best practices, helping investors better assess Metaplanet’s Bitcoin strategy.</p>  
<p>The BTC Yield showed a 116% return for the company’s Bitcoin holdings this month. This marked a substantial increase from the 41.7% yield recorded between July 1 and September 30. Gerovich attributed this growth to the company's expanding BTC assets, which doubled over the previous quarter.</p>  
<p>With its latest acquisition strategy, Metaplanet aims to strengthen its market position and enhance shareholder value through Bitcoin.</p>
